WashPost: Liberals Must Listen to Trump Voters
Breitbart ^ | 11 Jul 2022 | NEIL MUNRO

Posted on 07/11/2022 3:25:20 PM PDT by SoConPubbie

The United States will fail if liberals cannot overcome their contempt and hatred for President Donald Trump’s voters, says a liberal author in the Washington Post.

“We know that if we don’t figure this out, we don’t have a country,” said Washington Post book reviewer Joe Klein.

Klein described the liberals’ “primal scream” in a new book, titled, “Thank You for Your Servitude: Donald Trump’s Washington and the Price of Submission”. The book, by Mark Leibovitch, describes how establishment GOP leaders:

could almost get away with destroying American democracy — because a significant percentage of the American people, the [Trump voting] folks that we “serious” people keep trying to “understand,” are too lazy and crass and bigoted to care … I’m all in with the Atlantic’s exquisite Caitlin Flanagan, who describes the [January 6] rioters as “deadbeat dads, YouPorn enthusiasts, slow students, and MMA fans . . . with bellies full of beer and Sausage McMuffins, maybe a little high on Adderall.”

[The critcism is] a catharsis [for liberals]! After all those hours of trying to figure out why the most pampered and affluent and free people in history — people up to their ears in cellphones and flat-screen televisions and supercharged pickup trucks — are so angry [at the D.C. establishment], it feels good to whup the yokels upside the head, doesn’t it? I mean, at a certain point, our [elite’s] oh-so-civilized attempts at “understanding” become indulgence. Our attempt to respectfully bind the national wounds becomes a lesser version of the Republicans’ capitulation to the slovenly ignorance of the Trumpers. Why can’t we be as angry at them as they are at us?

The liberals have no intention of listening to the Americans. Ever.

The NEXT CONVOY won’t be just truckers-—

It will be larger & FAR more diverse.

deadbeat dads, YouPorn enthusiasts, slow students, and MMA fans . . . with bellies full of beer and Sausage McMuffins, maybe a little high on Adderall.”

What a bigoted assessment. For the record, I HATE MMA...

And...

This is why they'll never understand why their crap is losing. They have no idea who their real opponents are. They only have this fantasy version that they have been fed by their leaders, social media, and the press...

They live in a different world, not reality.

Reality is there are two sexes.

Reality is only women can get pregnant.

Reality is the country cannot survive a constant flow of illegal aliens.

Reality is we are out of money and we are spending our grandkid’s money.

I am detecting a microscopic shift in the attitude of WaPo toward Trump and his voters. Just a few days ago the WP issued a correction to a story about Trump (previously unheard of) and issued a mild apology.. and Trump responded with a ‘Thank you to the WaPo’. Then this. Bezos knows Biden has been a flaming disaster - and gas prices are hurting his business. Maybe I am reading too much into this ..but maybe.. he wants to sign a truce with Trump ? Especially given a decent chance that he will be back.

Left Looney people’s modus operandi is to lie to themselves to make themselves feel good about themselves.

Like deplorables, smelly Wal-Mart shoppers, white supremicists, white terrorists really care that these bastards hate us. They better worry more about our contempt and hatred for them.

#13: "They have eaten the seed corn."

It's worse than that. They fed it to the crows.

That's my argument for keeping the best system there is. How are the liberals using this as an argument to nuke the establishment?

C’mon liberals, come and pet us. We’re just as fuzzy and harmless as the grizzly bears at the zoo.

Yes they have. And all that is left to these prissy urbanites is the groveling madness of starvation. These are the diseased mobs that will need to be put down to protect what is left of civilization.
