From Russiagate to Harvard scandals, the left’s decade-long hysteria machine spins on—loud, fact-light, and void of any serious plan for America’s future.
The decade-old age of fables like Russian collusion, laptop disinformation, or the pangolin/bat cause of COVID is not over; it is just hitting midstream.
For much of April, amid stock downturns, in the classical paranoid style, we were assured by the Wall Street Journal news reporters and the liberal press that Trump had either a) guaranteed an inevitable recession, b) engineered a losing trade war he likely regretted, c) crashed the stock market, d) lost his once majority favorability ratings, e) mostly had a failed first 100 days, or f) all of the above.
Some of us thought these diagnoses and prognoses were absurd. How in mediis rebus, during a radical counterrevolution never quite seen before, could anyone issue such bleak predictions? Would these same observers have said the U.S. was doomed to lose World War II after the bleak first five months of mostly failure in the Pacific, or North Africa, after the utter U.S. army disaster at the Kasserine Pass?
When the Biden administration compiled two consecutive quarters of negative GDP—the supposedly classic definition of a recession—most of these same pundits assured us that the data was meaningless and irrelevant. The same left-wing media throng insisted Biden was in his cognitive prime until hours before he abdicated from the ticket under pressure. They swore to us that Robert Mueller’s “walls were closing in” on Donald Trump, who would legitimately go to jail, buried by 93 lawfare indictments.
As for their polls showing that Trump was all but through after three months in office, almost all of them were not just off in the 2016 presidential race, but again in 2020.

I wonder what percentage of democRATs still believe that COVID-19 originated in a Chinese wet market?
VDH ping
All of them. They will continue to think that until the party tells them otherwise.
It s just like dealing with a drunk or a mentally defective child 🙄
Going through life like that must surpass the worst pharmaceutical nightmare you ever heard of.
The left lies. Period. They have nothing else.
Satan never quits.
Christ wins. But satan never quits:
Christ doesn’t quit, longer.
It doesn’t take much to “trigger” the mentally disturbed DIMs/Lefties. MAGA hats, Teslas, American Flags, being normal, being happy, having a happy family, having a consistent job, having a nice house in a nice neighborhood and so forth all are triggers. These triggers often yield entertaining lunacy in these mentally disturbed, self-loathing sociopathic DIMs/lefties.
And to think one used to have to pay admission to see freaks at the freak show. Now it is free throughout society.
What a country!!!
“I wonder what percentage of democRATs still believe that COVID-19 originated in a Chinese wet market?”
I hope that the Democrats are still taking the Covid 19 vaccine.
There is not a single Democratic blueprint of how to address a $2 trillion budget deficit, $3 billion in daily interest payments, $37 trillion of national debt, or a $1.2 trillion annual trade deficit.

One Fake Left-wing Hysteria to the Next
The democrat party has it’s propaganda agents on over time on Spectrum morning news this morning program one stated
THE DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING TO SAVE THE DEMOCRACY.......
like all the left MSM talk about a pig in a poke deal.
Non comrades are the enemy
Amen 🙏🏻!!!!
And a good sweatshirt, coffee mug and bumper sticker.
Just turn on any of the fake corrupt “news” channels. Like CBS this morning, EVERY story was a negative one about Trump.
It’s as predictable as the sunrise sand sunset.
We probably need to rethink using GDP to define a recession. About 1/3rd of the GDP calculation is from how much money the government spent. If GDP is up from only government spending (not an increase in consumer or corporate spending), that's not a good thing. That'd be like saying that my financial situation was great when I was married to my ex because of all of her credit card spending.
I want GDP to go down because I want govt spending to go down. Unless, of course, consumer and corporate spending go up as much to compensate.
“About 1/3rd of the GDP calculation is from how much money the government spent.”
EXACTLY!...GDP spending does not make sense with that little fact.
