Meet the 'Moderate' Candidate of the Democrat Party
Townhall.com ^ | February 2, 2020 | Wayne Allyn Root

The Democrats have a big problem -- yuge, as President Donald Trump might say.

Right now the Democratic presidential front-runner is Sen. Bernie Sanders. His views are stark-raving crazy. The things he believes in turn off and frighten average Americans. You know, the ones who aren't communists and didn't choose to honeymoon in the Soviet Union.

Elizabeth Warren is trying to outdo Sanders. Recently, she claimed that transgender illegal aliens are the most important issue on the border. I kid you not. She was panicking over transgender people being stuck on the other side of the border because "mean Trump" won't let them in.

To radical nut jobs such as Warren, it isn't bad enough that open borders are draining the U.S. Treasury ... that illegal aliens are adding hundreds of billions of dollars to our national debt ... that they're using up limited resources for welfare, food stamps, education and health care that should rightfully be spent on American citizens. Warren wants to pour salt in the wound. She wants to bankrupt this country even faster. She clearly also wants to spend $150,000 each on illegal aliens so they can have free gender reassignment surgery. She thinks you and I should pay for that.

Then, just days ago, it got worse. Warren said she wants her nominee for education secretary to be vetted by a "young trans person," apparently referring to a 9-year-old trans child she met at a CNN town hall. To radicals such as Warren, transgender kids are the most important issue in education.

Now, more rational Democrats might say: "Warren will never be the nominee. Everyone realizes she's too radical. A moderate such as Mike Bloomberg will win the nomination."

OK. So let's meet the "moderate" Democratic candidate.

Bloomberg just released his vision for LGBTQ rights. Keep in mind I'm actually enlightened on gay rights issues. I've always been a pro-gay rights Republican. I support gay marriage. But Bloomberg's LGBTQ vision is so far out of the mainstream he might as well be running for president of Pluto. It includes:

-- Free sex surgery and hormone treatment for transgender people, thereby costing taxpayers billions of dollars.

-- Restricting the sale of health insurance that doesn't provide coverage for gender-affirming care, including sex reassignment surgery and hormone therapy, thereby dramatically increasing the cost of health insurance for all. Would you pay double or triple health insurance premiums so Jack can become Jill? That's Jack's problem, not ours. Here's my simple solution: Let Jack work three jobs to pay for his own surgery.

-- The right to seek shelter based on so-called gender identity, meaning Bloomberg would allow men who think they are women to stay in homeless and domestic violence shelters for women. This is just insanity and would potentially lead to women being assaulted and brutalized inside these shelters at the hands of men masquerading as women.

-- The passage of the Equality Act, which bars governments, schools and sports organizations from recognizing biological/physiological differences between men and women and instead recognizes gender identity, meaning your daughters would be competing in sports with boys who think they're girls, and showering, using bathrooms and rooming on road trips with boys who think they're girls.

This Bloomberg agenda is so radical that I can't even read it without getting physically sick. This isn't "moderate."

It's reckless and dangerous, and it borders on insane. Mark my words: Middle-class America will never, never, never vote for anyone promoting this radical and offensive an agenda.

Please keep in mind that Bloomberg is the moderate candidate of today's Democratic Party.

No such animal as a “moderate” Democrat!

ALL Democrats are LIEberal Democrats!

Some just are more LIEberal than others!

And some LIE more than others!

Having said that, ALL LIEberal Democrats LIE!

“The word democrat no longer means democratic, but dictatorial.”

I thought it meant demonic..? Could be interchangeable in most instances.

I'm sure Obama offered Hillary VP....she should have taken it.

She was more visible as Secretary of State and left that position early (2013) to try to put some distance between them.

What is foreign policy dictator Josef Stalin Biden done?

Our hardwork, kindness, goodwill, honor has been destroyed by kickback/extortion schemes called “foreign aide” to further enrich evil “representatives” and their families and friends.

All the while our time of life is cut short and wasted by debt/tax slavery.

If Bloomberg is the nominee, Trump should make this a major issue and firmly be against the sexual fluidity idea. Ridicule it and all. The people are with him on this. Don’t let mini Mike pretend he’s just another stable genius Billionaire on the economy

At least Oswald had an excuse that his wife was Russian.

Bloomberg’s daughter got secretly married this weekend to some flunky who screwed up with charter schools.

“Who ever honeymooned in the Soviet Union?” Good point.

Marx would’ve hated Bourgeois Socialist Bernie. He talked about them in the Communist Manifesto. Uncle Joe would’ve put one in the back of the head of the putz and kicked him into a shallow grave.

Actually JFK was a Conservative by today's standards. He'd be way far to the right of most Republican in the Senate today because of his Catholic pro life stance and his income tax cutting alone.

DeBlasio went to Cuba. That’s politically the same pandering move.

Can we just stop with the “gender identity” nonsense? It is becoming tiresome. You’re a guy that wants to wear a dress? Buy your own. As far as surgery goes, I would only be willing to provide this:

That was Stalin's auto-reply. He even did it to the man who reported to him that Hitler was about to invade the Soviet Union.

Bloomberg’s chances of being elected President are between zilch and zero— Can’t you just imagine how painful it would be to watch him match wits with Donald Trump on stage! —but he’s much too smart to take on Hillary as Vice President!

JFK would have moved to the Left with the rest of the party.
