They’ve made me even more supportive of Trump.
They had a Democratic pollster on Fox yesterday who worked in the Clinton White House that was saying the same thing. He said the Democrats have taken such a hard left turn that he doesn’t even recognize his party anymore.
The bad: the rest are being so radicalized we may see a flashpoint situation in our lifetime leading to open conflict.
Check the headlines...Trumps motorcade was attacked by an object thrown at them in Florida. It was a 2*4. The perps? 5 grade school kids. An entire generation is being lied to and radicalized by the left.
It is not a good sign that the NYTs is printing this. It might mean the left is becoming better at seeing reality.
That is a dangerous thing...
They use fascist tactics: intimidating and assaulting people, rioting and destroying property.
They promote the fascist ideology: suppressing freedom, of thought, speech and action while scapegoating anyone who does not support their agenda.
They engage in fascist rhetoric: claiming that whites, especially men, are the root of all problems, while hinting that they want to rid society of these “undesirable” people.
They call ordinary people who support the Constitution “Nazis” in an attempt to deceive us about their goals and ideology.
Why should anyone be surprised that the support for Trump just grows stronger the more that the left shows its true colors?
Trump’s most rabid opponents are like the anti-war Left of the Nixon era. As Nixon ended the draft, withdrew US troops, and made a peace treaty with North Vietnam, the air went out of the anti-war movement, but its cadre of hard Left activists went underground to become bomb-makers and would be revolutionaries. A narrow electoral college victor in 1968, Nixon was reelected in 1972 by an historically large margin.
When a cage full of insane howler monkeys is throwing handfuls of sh-t at the zookeeper, it’s awful difficult NOT to empathize more with the zookeeper.
Abolutely
I don’t think the problem lies so much with them- the left loonies are as constant as the Northern Star- it’s the antagonistic Republican filth I would like to see taken out. Not many true conservatives amongst them.
Yes
I have proof in my own family with my idealistic oldest daughter who now fears the loony left more than Trump and she loves Milo
moral preening and virtue signaling by the left are at an all time high.
everyone just loves self righteous smugness/sarcasm off
Not really the point of the article, but if you told someone in the 1950’s that you were ‘gay’ they would believe you were in a happy mood.
That term for homosexual didn’t really become commonplace until the 60’s.
Just more evidence they have no idea what they are saying.
The left is dying.
“The name calling from the left is crazy,” said Bryce Youngquist, 34, who works in sales for a tech start-up in Mountain View, Calif., a liberal enclave where admitting you voted for Mr. Trump is a little like saying in the 1950s that you were gay. “They are complaining that Trump calls people names, but they turned into some mean people.”
The left has no other playbook but Alinsky. They're going to double down.
They prove that they are made up of lunatics - that can’t hurt President Trump....
In high school, I'd absorbed a form of leftism from my surroundings. The influences in my life were mixed, and this leftism of mine was largely fiscal (it never included calling for "abortion rights"). But if I could've voted during high school, I would've easily voted for the Democrats.
My political beliefs are a result of thought about what is true and good. They aren't a simple reaction to name-calling from the left.
Instead, name-calling from the left helped to start me thinking about my political beliefs. By my freshman year in college or maybe my senior year in high school, I noticed that the same leftists who professed to be open-minded and tolerant didn't quite speak and act that way when referring to conservatives. So my thinking began then.
My tagline, "When he is being rude or mean it drives people away from his confession and towards yours," comes from the profile page for the Religion Moderator. I use this tagline mostly because of what happens in our religious threads, but its wider application hasn't escaped my notice.
Yes, I still probably would've "converted" sometime if leftists were (or seemed to be) genuinely friendly and civil people. Leftism is flawed, and I've never based my view of a belief on how nice its advocates are. Even so, I don't mind having converted earlier than others did.
If the current manifestations of leftism help others start their thinking too, I'm happy to welcome them.
Bullies are always surprised when their former victims punch them in the mouth. We started doing just that in November and we won’t stop anytime soon. Elections have consequences, as the poss who formerly lived in the White House liked to say.
Most of the leftists enemies, see trump’s win as an opportunity to riot, loot, amd destroy property. We are going to see a lot of this behavior in the next 4 years. Find their bankrollers like Soros and others and hold them liable, drain their bank accounts and make them pay.
