"But new presidents typically get an electoral whupping after their first two years, and there’s every reason to believe that Trump will govern — or fail to — in a fashion that prompts one. Will Democrats respond in a way that puts them in the best possible position to deliver it?
That hinges on whether they can look as hard at the errors in their party as at the ugliness in America."
Criminals sometimes overplay their hand. It’s very unusual that a cabal of criminals would screw up this bad. The history of HIllaryous Rotten Criminal is that EVIL. Very hard to paper over. Americans have memories and aren’t that devoid of rational thought, yet. Who will emerge from the collectivist/socialist/criminal ‘rat cesspool to carry the germ?
Enemies domestic ALERT!
Re: I plan to use greater care in how I talk to and about Americans more culturally conservative than I am.
Yeah, sure. This will last all of one week.
If that.
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
Get back to me when non-white skin color and/or having a vagina are no longer THE major qualifications for POTUS. Or when culturally conservative Americans is no longer a code for racist or any type of (fill in the blank)ism.
One obvious reason that the liberal press avoids like the plague: Maybe the American public has moved a bit to the right this time.
Donald Trump’s victory and some of the, yes, deplorable chants that accompanied it do not mean that a majority of Americans are irredeemable bigots (though too many indeed are).
He still doesn't get it. The source of the condescension is their sense of moral superiority when nothing of the sort is actually present.
I OBJECT once again about the language corruption perpetuated by equating ‘Liberal’ with LEFTIST! Just like the election maps that tag Democrats as blue and Republicans as red, it is the MSM, innocently or not, working on language change.
The thesaurus has ‘liberal’ as ‘tolerant’, ‘easygoing’ and ‘openminded’ as just a few matches. The current Democrat, Progressive LEFT is anything BUT Liberal and to use the term to describe them is intolerable for me!
“Liberals miss this by being illiberal. They shame not just the racists and sexists who deserve it..”
...who deserves it...
And that is the problem with liberals, they are selective in who should be shamed.
In a free nation, a person should be allowed to be “sexist” “racist” “homophobic” and on down on the list. At the same time society should have the right to “shame” those that do not fit in. Eventually a balance will be reached.
The problem is the left protects special groups from being shamed. It the liberal world only white, males (and sometimes white females.) are to be shamed, if you are in a protected you can do no wrong.
This is how they “buy” votes.
Become a Democrat and you can do or say anything.
(An exception is when one of the protected class leaves the plantation, they must be punished severely to keep others from also leaving)
Does it even enter his mind he maybe entirely wrong? John Kennedy would be a right wing radical today..
“I plan to use greater care in how I talk to and about Americans more culturally conservative than I am.”
Note what he doesn’t say here - which is that he’s willing to reconsider what he THINKS of us deplorables...because he’s not capable of that.
I can’t stop smiling!
