As a long-suffering California Republican, I have engaged the radical left for the past couple decades and have found their modus operandi to be this; create a caricature of their opponents, and demand that said opponents defend said caricature.  Racist, misogynist, homophobe, xenophobe, ageist, on and on and on.  Who among us, over the past handful of years has not been tarnished by the broad brush of these ad hominem claims?

You and I know they're nonsense, but it seemed the more we argued against the claims, the more the general populace seemed to accept them as truth.  If we ignored them, we accepted their validity.  If we defended ourselves, we acknowledged their validity — a vicious catch-22.

Sadly, in California, this M.O. has worked like a charm.  Republicans have all but ceded power to the Left and now have no power to thwart the leftist agenda. With Barack Obama's ascension, leftists began "community organizing" this tactic on a national level.  Pols, celebrities, activist groups (LGBTQ, Antifa, labor unions, etc.), and media have helped to further this lie with their drumbeat of false assertions.

Enter Jussie Smollett, a prototypical Trump-deranged leftist.  While he orchestrated a hate crime hoax on a grand scale, the reality is that his is only the latest such hoax to rear its ugly head.

We must include the Kavanaugh hearings as a perfect example of the anti-Trump hoaxes and fake crimes.

While poor Mr. Kavanaugh took the brunt of their lies and hatred - it really was all about defeating #BadOrangeMan and anyone associated with him.
