The democrat party is gearing up for (un)civil war.

Kill babies, invade America, give everything away, damage our own childrens' brains with public indoctrination ....We see it now and can do nothing short of armed conflict.

CHANGE MY MIND

OOPS ... a line didn't come through the first time;

The democrat party is gearing up for (un)civil war.

Kill babies, invade America, give everything away, damage our own childrens' brains with public indoctrination ....

They've been at it since at least the 1930's and have gotten too many feet in too many doors, too many noses in too many tents.

We see it now and can do nothing short of armed conflict.

Agree "they are finally letting the mask drop". Or more appropriately, the loud mouths of the party are ones causing the stampede.

Well, it is from The Atlantic, about as far Left a publication as you can get.

So the article for me was destroyed when I saw who published the article.

No need to waste time reading a radical Left-wing slap-down of deplorables.

The transformation of the GOP into the party of Patrick J. Buchanan and Donald J. Trump—defined by cultural resentments, crude populism, and ethnic nationalism—
That is a manufactured, premise smuggling piece of political hysteria.  Trump doesn't need to resent another culture.  He carries around his own culture that works very well. Plus, any form of populism looks crude to coastal elites, and wanting a better America does not equate to racism no matter how many times that lie is told.
But the GOP is hardly the only party that is undergoing some alarming tectonic shifts.
The people alarmed by the tectonic shift are parasites on the economy and/or leftists terrified at a brief glimpse of capitalist ankle.  Stop clutching those beads, grandma. America will resume her trek to a bankrupt socialist nation-state soon enough.

>>>defined by cultural resentments, crude populism, and ethnic nationalism<<<

Quite a broad brush those Commie MF’er’s paint us with isn’t it?

I wonder if they could explain exactly what they meant sitting across from one of us Irredeemable Deplorable types.

The title was written by Captain Obvious. Colson wrote of it 35 years ago.

Wehner somehow neglected to mention that the globalist wing of the GOP and Bernie the socialist both want to block wall construction on behalf of big-money donors.

Bernie is now on the conservative side of the democrat party. The lunatics have completely taken over.
