Opinion: Democrats’ hatred of Trump makes them their own worst enemies
The Hill ^ | March 12, 2025 | Bernard Goldberg

Posted on 03/12/2025 4:53:14 PM PDT by where's_the_Outrage?

Here’s a question to consider: What the heck has happened to the Democratic Party?

You don’t have to be a political scientist to realize that Democrats have lost their way. It’s one thing to have ideological disagreements with the other side — it’s something else altogether to abandon not only traditional American values but common sense itself.

Let’s start with their “basket of deplorables” mindset. Hillary Clinton said it out loud in 2016, but this apparently is how many Democratic elites see half the country. If you question their agenda, you’re not just wrong — you’re immoral.

Look at the issue of transgender athletes in women’s sports. About 80 percent of Americans agree that biological males shouldn’t compete against biological females. Yet when the Senate had a chance to affirm this basic reality, not a single Democrat voted for it. Not one. They’re so terrified of their activist base that they’d rather ignore science and the people who elected them than risk being labeled “transphobic” on social media.......

There was plenty for Democrats not to like about Trump’s speech, which was needlessly partisan. But he was right about at least one thing. “I look at the Democrats in front of me,” Trump said “and I realize there is absolutely nothing I can say to make them happy or to make them stand or smile or applaud. I can find a cure to the most devastating disease, a disease that would wipe out entire nations, or announce the answers to the greatest economy in history, or the stoppage of crime to the lowest levels ever recorded and these people sitting right here will not clap, will not stand, and certainly will not cheer for these astronomical achievements.”

The democrats have put themselves in a hole where they cannot afford to work with Trump on anything, even their agenda as it would show Trump can bring American together.

Hubert Humprey would be like Fetterman is today. A total outlier.The right in the Party. My Dad said to me, “ I finaly know what it’s like to be a right wing Conservative.” And he is, as a Democrat.

The Dems are captured by their Marxist base. Problem is the base doesn’t know they’re finished, thus the violence. Expect more

They’re just giving the base what the base wants. Unfortunately it’s not enough to win any election anytime soon.

And that RAT who have the rebuttal speech after SOTU said conservatives brains haven’t fully developed yet. They’re really not doing themselves any favors. Haven’t learned a thing.

Deplorables. Garbage. Now undeveloped brains.

They can't roll up their sleeves and get to work because they are too busy hand wringing. Instead of America First they are Blame America First. 20 years in the wilderness is their future if they don't stomp out the New Far Left.

Fetterman is a moderate in name only. (MINO?) He realizes that his state is turning red and is trying to not lose his job by voting left and talking middle.

It would be refreshing to see dozens of looters, arsonists, rapists and murderers arrested. Rudy must be shaking his head in disbelief at what’s happened to New York City.

The democrats have actually been lunatics for decades.

The writing’s been on the wall.

The phenomenon of interest is the mass-awakening to these facts.

Which is why ever since the stolen election I’ve referred the party and its constituents as Marxist-Democrats. And the sooner most people do likewise the better for America!

Thanks for posting that, because I didn’t bother to watch it.

As an aside, I think that the Dems should probably be very concerned about this, because if we can beat them this handily with undeveloped brains, imagine what we’ll do to them when the development process is complete.

“Thanks for posting that, because I didn’t bother to watch it.”

Oh, I didn’t watch her speech, either. Eeeewwww. I did see it discussed on something I watched yesterday — “Chicks On The Right”, I think. Supposedly, she’s vying with Crockett and AOC as the up-and-comer of their party.

And the day after SOTU there was coverage of her involvement as a groomer of children for LGBTQ. Disgusting.

Also, as far as beating them when our brains have fully developed, I was thinking last night that I haven’t heard anything about stopping election fraud. PDJT and his staff are doing a LOT in so many areas. But I did some checking into the FEC, and it looks like a mess. Vacancies that aren’t filled are worrisome (IMO). FIX IT!

There’ll be hell to pay in 2026 & 2028 if something isn’t done. The RATs don’t care about winning elections, but they totally care about being in power so God only know what they’ll pull in the future re cheating.

He can’t ignore this.
