If it was new, either those of us that have been discussing it here for half a decade are literal prophets, or have incredible foresight and luck.
Or it isn’t new at all.
Yes, they are more bold about it. But i maintain the reason people didn’t see it was that they didn’t want to. It has been there, openly, for years.
When every major vote results in crashed switchbords and voicemail, then they vote against conservatism and constitutionality, that in and of itself tells you one of two things. They turned the phones off in the first place or flatly ignored the will of the people.
Thats one example they repeated over and over. There were dozens. People always had a reason. An excuse. Something to deny wht happened was something OTHER than what happened.
It got so bad that to this day there are people right here on this thread they will argue to the death that their losing vote for Mitt Romney did not help lead the party further left. That is denial on a mental illness scale. When your party runs a candidate for the highest office on the planet that is openly opposed to everything Reagan ever stood for, how can ANYONE think they were not WIDE OPEN as to where their loyalties were?
How?
People come to the realization of these things at different times for various reasons, one of them being they didn’t want to believe it yes.
you were obviously among the earliest of them. Maybe I’m not far behind. As you say it doesn’t matter because it is too late and there are way too many people who are totally clueless still. We are all in trouble.
