I am black. My brother is black. When I criticized Barack Obama in 2008, he called that “racist”.

I laughed out loud, but I never forgot it.

The Left has flipped the narrative. They used to assert that the private life of the President was of no concern. Now it’s front page news. I think they are just grasping at straws to try to stop Trump but all they are doing is looking like hypocrites with no principles & destroying themselves in the process as well. Also - they tend to project.

"Outside of a loathsome, far-out fringe of white supremacists on the right and groups like Antifa on the left, the overwhelming majority of those in both parties are simply political opponents who have a different view of what is best for the country."

_______

THAT is something that should be remembered by everyone.

You know,

Maxine is becoming a notable liability to the Left’s chances this coming election.

Some of her fellow evildoers much higher up the food chain could become tempted to involve her in their next op.

It is not us she should be afraid of.

In fact, we should hope she is being very well protected at all times.

Civility in politics changed. Few remember exactly when it changed; only that it did. It was felt, at the time, this was the exact moment that the change was monumental. The gloves were off and the wrath of Hillary became full force in her fight. Hillary screeches; changing the landscape in 2003
Rules tossed out the window
Years ago it was common practice to avoid criticizing a President so harshly unless on our Home Soil. She ignored passe rules such as this, writing her own as she went along.

Rewriting rules? She continues to do so years later.

Everyone seems to give Schumer credit for some courageous act. I listened to his entire rant, and in it he never mentioned Waters by name, and 99 percent of the rant was just the standard anti-Trump rant we’ve come to expect.

“Outside of a loathsome, far-out fringe of white supremacists on the right and groups like Antifa on the left, the overwhelming majority of those in both parties are simply political opponents who have a different view of what is best for the country.”

Yeah... maybe 20 years ago. Not now.

Now, your rank-and-file RAT (VERY rank, by the way) is entirely in favor of whatever insanity is spewed out by the radical left. Kick Sarah Sanders out of a restaurant? Good! She deserves it because she works for the evil orange Hitler who wants to put homosexuals in cages (or something). Eat at Chick-fil-A? NO! They’re not politically pure! Hobby Lobby? You’ve got to be kidding... they’re (shudder) Christians! Child sex on Netflix? What’s your problem? Are you some kind of weird religious prude or something?

That doesn’t describe some small group of fringe leftists - I believe it describes the vast majority of them. And, on the other side, considering the utterly unacceptable, infantile, destructive behavior they’ve exhibited since the MOMENT Trump was elected, I’d hope the general feeling on the right towards the left is NOT “oh, you’re just a fine person with a different political viewpoint” but “You’re a flaming idiot who’s out to destroy out society and our country and we should be doing EVERYTHING we can to stop you any way we can.”

The left do not have a moral compass only goals. The justifies the means is their only rule.

It is pointless to expect consistencies from the left.

For example it did not bother them one bit that President Clinton is fighting for “woman’s rights” while getting serviced by intern in the Oval Office. Lewinsky is punished and Bill Clinton is praised by the Feminist.

Calling someone on the left a hypocrite is not shaming them, it is a badge of honor. They secretly enjoy knowing they can get away with almost anything while while conservative have a one strike and you are out policy.

While this inability to see what they are doing is wrong morally (and sometimes legally) is both a strength and a weakness.

It is a strength in that it allows them to go after their opposition viciously until they surrender and leave the field

It is also a weakness in that they do not know when to stop.

Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. The more their tactics succeed the more they cross over the line beyond what even the mushy middle will accept.

Then it becomes a question of what happens to these morally bankrupt individuals when they find their tactics no longer work?

The election of Donald Trump did something to these individuals. Something in their mind snapped. The unthinkable happen, their side lost. Their heroine who was going to show the world the path to Utopia was cast aside by their sworn enemies. They could not comprehend just how this could happen.

What we are witnessing with the left is mass insanity. They have to pretend that Hillary won or that Obama is still the President. Yet when they come face to face with evidence that is not true they react with anger and “kick that evidence out of their safe zone.”

In the five stages of grief some are still in the denial stage others are in the anger stage and it is safe to say none have reached the acceptance stage.

This is not good for them, their party or our nation. Many of these people are actually powerful and influence individuals in our nation, prominent in the news industry, government, entertainment, and business. The owner of the Red Hen can act out on her anger with little damage to the world, but the people who control the news media and can do much harm in the way the present the US to the world.

Their anger is destroying them and allowing the rise of a real Socialist movement to take over the Democrat Party. Not the cocktail socialist but the Venezuela form of socialism.

I wish I had the answers but I don’t.
