Thank You, Democrats | Opinion
Newsweek ^ | Nov 8, 2024 | Lee Habeeb

Posted on 11/08/2024 1:18:05 PM PST by where's_the_Outrage?

Dear Democratic Party, and its allies and accomplices,

Donald Trump supporters I know have asked me to dedicate some space to thank you for all you did to make their momentous win on November 5 a reality. They insist they couldn't have done it without your help. Here's a partial list of the many people and things Trump voters told me they believe fueled their victory.

First of all, thank you for not listening to us or trying to understand us over the past 8 years. Thank you for choosing to call us names like "fascist," "bigot," and "racist" whenever we disagreed with you.

Thank you, liberal media sources, for giving Never Trumpers a platform—for proving, finally, that there are conservatives you'll give equal airtime. Thank you for running with Fusion GPS and the Democrats' fake Russian Dossier story.

Thank you to the former 51 former intelligence officials who signed a letter in 2020 falsely claiming the Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation. A special thanks to former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey for removing it from your platform and for banning President Trump's account.

Thank you to Anthony Fauci and the public officials, experts, and media figures who scolded and threatened Americans who didn't agree with mask mandates or universal compulsory vaccines. You started a movement.

Thank you to the mayors and governors who locked down our schools, churches, and businesses without concern for the damage you did to our way of life and our kids' mental health—and all in the name of protecting us.

Thank you, Democratic Party, for impeaching President Trump not once but twice.

"The views expressed in this article are the writer's own."

And that of probably every citizen who voted for Trump.

Agree, but he is telling them all the things they need to do to win back those who walked away.
And the author shouldn’t call them Democratic Party because they are not.

Celebrating diversity of ideas they way they always do. Being unwilling to listen to any viewpoints even slightly different than theirs. No wonder they know so little they don't know what they don't know.

Mirroring what I see and hear from democrats. Each time I encounter another nasty word democrats use to describe normal people, I add it to the list. If democrats didn't say and write such things, I never would have thought of these and the list wouldn't exist:

air heads, bigoted, bitter-clingers clinging to their bibles and guns, bully, chumps, communist, constitutionally illiterate, crude, delusional, deplorables, dense, dregs, enemies of freedom, extremist, fascist, feeble-minded, garbage, greedy, grifters, haters, Hitler, homophobe, horde of budding blood-and-soil fascists, intolerant, irredeemable, Islamophobe, isolated kooks, leftist, liar, maggots, misogynist, morally bankrupt, nasty farts, NAZI, nitwits, obtuse, Paranoid Hypocrite A**hole, pathologically lying, opinionated, profoundly and pathetically weak people, racist, rapist, retarded, rich, self-serving, semiliterate moron, sexists, simpletons, smelly Walmart people, snakes, totally corrupt, toxic masculine, traitorous, transphobe, treasonous, white supremacist, xenophobe...

Good article. Who would have guessed that anybody, anywhere would actually come up with a piece that got the political scene right.

The constant conversation about this or that artificially created “group” or “demographic’ moving to “Trump”, is hilarious. Trump is the champion of all the people (like me!) who loath the garbage and madness that Democratic institutions (including, or course, the formerly mainstream press) have been favoring.

Trump supports us, and common sense.

Groups didn’t move toward Trump. He stood strong and made us believe he would fight where it was needed.

We just stayed where we were in a country we believed in. We want to live, and love, and raise families. We didn’t “change” our positions.

It says at the top you can subscribe for $1. I thought that was the total selling price for Newsweek. That said this piece is Gold Jerry Gold!

Fun to read.

But the Dems won’t read it. Even if you volunteer to read it to them. They’re not listening. They don’t care. Their mind is as closed as a college professor’s womb.

I enjoyed your list.
I counted at least 60 derogatory terms for normal people.
Way more than President Trump is accused of using.
Now I can refer to the list when my cat lady niece complains about Trump.

Let’s hope they never figure it out. Their party will become as irrelevant as the Greens

Thank you!
I like cats too, but my eyes swell up when I am around them very long.
They say that Pres. Trump has full protection now, but I still worry and pray for his safety.
