Why President Trump won the Democrats’ debate last night
American Thinker ^ | 08/01/2019 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 08/01/2019 6:17:22 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

After two nights of the Democrats’ presidential field debating each other, it’s clear that they are doing harm to their party’s prospects of regaining the presidency in 2020. Part of the problem is a field so large that a circular firing squad is inevitable. As the field is winnowed down, there will be fewer grenades hurled at the frontrunner(s), but it is likely that the surviving candidates will be the most ambitious and ruthless among them, and they will not be tempted to take the high road. So, if anything, the attacks will intensify and gain focus.

But a bigger problem is the nature of the party’s base voters, whose support is essential for winning the nomination. That base has become so radicalized that the positions necessary to win its support – socialism, the Green New Deal, and impeachment among them -- are repellant to the rest of the country and ensure a loss in November 2020.

Best of all, there is absolutely nothing that the Democrats can do to solve these problems; they are baked into the party and the structural situation it faces. Two-and-a-half years of #Resistance and Trump Derangement Syndrome have driven too many people in the party, especially its most motivated voters and most ambitious pols, mad.

Kirsten Gillibrand wants to explain white privilege to ‘white women in the suburbs’
By Kenneth Garger July 31, 2019 NEW YORK POST

Presidential hopeful Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) said during Wednesday night’s Democratic presidential debate that she can address “institutional racism” by explaining white privilege to women in the suburbs.

“I can explain it to white women in the suburbs,” Gillibrand said on the debate stage.

I’ve said for over a year now that what we are now seeing is not Democrat vs Republican. It is leftists vs everyone else. And this explains #walkaway as well as Blexit. And the dirty secret is that though many of those in the democrat party may not vote for Trump, they will not be able to bring themself to vote for one of these nut cases either. And getting your side to actually vote is key to winning.

Trump’s track record of actions speaks for itself. A moderate and even a democrat can bring themself to actually vote for the status quo in the white house.

“I can explain it to white women in the suburbs,” Gillibrand said on the debate stage. “When their son is walking down the street with a bag of M&Ms in his pocket, wearing a hoodie, his whiteness is what protects him from not being shot.”

What a complete idiotic failure she is. She is easily the female equivalent of O'Dork. Her candidacy should be a source of embarrassment to her.

And shouldn't it have been "protects him from not being shot.”?

The Democrat Party has firmly entrenched themselves as the party of illegal immigrants and those who take from society, rather than contribute to society.

I wouldn’t say Trumpslide2020 is in the bag. In fact, I would say keep fighting like we’re five points behind.
But if the people repulsed by the Demonicrat platform turn out we should win even against the most blatant vote fraud.
Which will, hopefully, make the Demonicrats even crazier, and thus ensure future defeats.

Do M&Ms feature prominently in some recent racially divisive shooting, or is it just an innocence marker, like “he had Shirley Temple curls and a lollipop”?

If your son just beat up a store clerk to get the M&Ms, and then attacks the cop who tries to stop him, I don’t think “whiteness” is going to be the shield Gillibrand thinks.

Only if you put white milk in it. Chocolate milk is OK.

If white teens wore hoodies to ‘outsmart’ surveillance cameras in store robberies, their ‘white skin’ wouldn't protect them from cops either...

Gillibrand needs to check crime statistics before jumping to conclusions about skin color... If men with blue eyes had the same crime stats as black men, cops would be watching out for blue eyed men.

I’m not so sure...the midterm election especially the Florida and California fraud induced races were a foresight of things to come!! The fraud will be on a massive scale and when the evil rats win it’ll be too late to challenge it! Let’s face it this presidential election will be like none ever seen in our nation’s history ...this will be new charted waters! Also I believe china manufactured the voting machines...easy pickings! They have trillions invested globally and Trump is their speed bump to be a world economy superpower!! The spineless RNC will be happy and thrilled if Trump is booted...to them the rampant fraud will be an ok with them as long as Trump is gone!! Don’t doubt me on this!!

POTUS, Trump won both Democrat Party 2020 POTUS candidate debates...hands down. Why? First CNN is such a failed Cable TV network, that very few Americans chose to tune in to the CNN Debate farce on both nights, and the Democrat Party, losers that occupied on stage.

And...in the “Real World”, there in not one, not one Democrat POTUS Candidate qualified to run or become POTUS. Trump will wipe out any impact of those failed debates, with a massive, huge, successful POTUS campaign rally being held this evening, August 1st, 2019 in Cincinnati, Ohio at the U.S. Bank Arena (capacity, 18,000 people). Total crowd of Trump folks estimated to be between 18,000 & 30,000 people.

The authorities are closing down the streets of downtown Cincinnati as Trump Rally supporters are pouring in early to insure good seats & spots in & at the rally or near the outside “Large Screen” TVs. Rally commences at 7:00 PM (EDT). Contact: www.donaldjtrump.com for more information!!!

The POTUS, Trump rally will be televised in total on FNC, FBN, OAN, C-Span, RSBN. and tons of open live feed lines across the entire country. Of course the failing CNN & MSNBC cable networks will not carry any of this activity, 100% losers & dummies that they both are!!!

For your info...CNN had miserable TV viewer numbers on both of their televised Democrat Debate days!!!
