That’s very true, except I really think that most Dem politicians actually are America-hating crypto-Marxists. These radical nut-jobs just gave them the boldness to come out and say it and align publicly with these positions. Look how all the Dem candidates have been falling all over each other to proclaim their allegiance to the “Justice Democrat” agenda, ranging from no borders to black reparations to forced government health care to the confiscation of wealth and the control of the very air we breathe through their “Green Agenda.” Oh, and forcing everyone in the country to accept and pledge allegiance to various delusional sexual and moral ideas...well, the list just goes on. The radicals have just emboldened them.
However, I’m not sure, as you point out, that the Dems really have the support they think they do among the public for these extreme positions. The radicals - and not only the four most recently elected ones, but some of the older ones who have been spouting hate-filled nonsense for years but had been politely ignored by the press - have become the undeniable face of Dem leadership. This is partially through press promotion and partially through the fact that the Dems themselves are scared of them and no one dares to oppose them.
The Democrat party has spent years cultivating hatred of the US, hatred of “whites” (whatever those are), hatred of Western culture, hatred of our institutions, hatred of Christianity, hatred of success and hatred of freedom. While some of them may not have felt that way deep down inside, they certainly felt that these positions were a path to power, particularly as they began to think of their “base” solely in terms of ethnic or other identity group allegiance. So they created this monster, and now they can’t control it.
yes, indeed. you are correct. the Dem’s lurch to the extreme left was because that was who they are in secret anyway, and they were simply emboldened to shed their masks because of their mistaken belief that that was where the majority of their base was at as well ...
and, yes, the hatred monster is their own creation too. They started out by fostering jealously and hatred amongst various grievance identity groups, but that has now spun out of their control.
I have long predicted that the identity groups would turn on each other and that was the Frankenstein that would destroy the Dems, but I never could have imagined what actually happened would be that the hatred would be turned by their LEADERS against American itself and we its citizens as a whole ...
