The Democratic Party is so radical now that there is no room for the moderates. Impeachment exposed this fact.

I would argue the word “now” is incorrect. They have always been radical. “Now” belongs with sloppy. They’ve been systematically working toward their goals and have been very good at hiding their ultimate vision....Impeachment caused the veil to slip.

Stopping the totalitarian impulse in humans is an unrealistic goal.
With promises of utopia, such hucksters deliver nothing but misery.
Only a society with a perpetual whack-a-mole mindset can contain its evil influence.

Vigilance at the ballot boxes MIGHT stop some of the attacks, if fraud can be sufficiently controlled in enough places to get an at least partially valid vote for the Republican-majority House of Representatives we so desperately need, and to hold onto the majority in the Senate. The now badly compromised Democrats have a party-line vote on every issue at which they may contest President Trump and the Senate.

Love him or hate him, Mitch McConnell has been doing a yeoman job of getting appointments to the Federal judicial bench confirmed, and that may be the greatest legacy of all that Donald Trump as President leaves after he departs the office. Law according to established principles and now centuries of practice in place of “nuanced” interpretations and popular pressures.

Rust never sleeps. Termites never stop eating the timbers. Rats never stop cheating and lying to get power.

In ‘normal’ times, if the democrats had not become so uncivil and so socialist and so radical....

President Trump would easily qualify to take his spot on Mt. Rushmore. That would be the leftists’ worst nightmare.

In any case, Trump should be nominated to be put on Mt Rushmore, and should easily win a Nobel peace prize, if nominated for that too.

No doubt that Trump is among the top best 5 presidents EVER.

Those who desire control over others never stop.

Stalkers never stop.

They will inflict themselves upon their victims until they physically can no longer do this for whatever reason that physically prevents them.

The entire Democrat Party is comprised of narcissistic sociopath stalker personalities.

I’m not familiar with this writer.

But he certainly gets right to the point in relatively few words.

I noted on another thread yesterday that I don’t believe winning in November will be enough.

The RAT party needs its own Stalingrad. It needs to be defeated so badly that its current leadership is utterly discredited and at least some of the base begins to have second thoughts about their political priorities.

It’s already become a truism that politics is downstream of the culture. And for this reason, I can’t see many on the left experiencing a moment of clarity following defeat.

They are too lost in narcissism, identity-bsed grievances, and a sense of entitlement. They have no knowledge of history and no idea of how hard life was for many people, even into times that our oldest citizens can remember.

They are profoundly ungrateful, even while living amid the greatest prosperity in human history. Rather, they see that someone else has a bit more than they have and are consumed by envy.

There’s no reasoning with such people.

I don’t believe there will be any political realignment without the use of force against the left. I hope DJT is prepared for rioting in the immediate aftermath of the election, and continued acts of domestic terrorism afterward.

“The Ripper” is at it 24/7.......she’s a Power Zombie.......plotting as we type.

“Pen”losi’s carefully-laid, vainglorious dreams of assuming total power were vanquished.

“Killing the King” was her “pen”ultimate goal.

Too bad she missed.

What happens to her next is not going to be pretty.

As Pres Reagan once said: " it is as clear as the law of physics that as greater powers
are given to the government, an equal share of freedom to the citizenry declines."

This does not stop power-mongering Democrats; it emboldens them.

I predict her stunt with the SOTU speach will haunt her for a long time.

The Democratic Party must be eradicated off the face of the earth. It is too dangerous to be allowed to continue to exist.

And I’m going to make that happen and nothing on God’s green earth is going to stop me.

Leftist lust for power.
The top 2 contenders are Bernie Sanders, a hard core Marxists and Pete Buttigieg, a gay Marxist whose high school idol was Bernie Sanders.

Many criminals/gangs/collectives NEVER stop until incarcerated or eliminated. Witness history. Witness current events. Individuals have always had to fight to be free.

My 86 year old mother told me as a child, she wore clothes made from old grain sacks.

The Left’s lust for power in DC makes the greed on Wall st look like a Sunday school girl picnic.
