The past three years have not been easy for the political fortunes or the emotional health of America’s Democrats. To the extent they feel optimistic about anything, they have been waiting for the 2020 election in the way inhabitants of a storm-ravaged city might look toward the end of hurricane season — as an opportunity to restore order not just to their fractured physical world, but to their battered psyches.
Why, then, even with the potential catharsis of impeachment proceedings against President Trump now underway, do so many feel so awful?

Do these idiots they’re interviewing think all of the democrat candidates are running in the general election?
When 0 won in 2008 and then again in 2012 I was hardly a happy camper but I knew ultimately God controlled history and eventually things would change for the better or worse but they would change. I found it easy to ignore 0 for the most part and the last thing I wanted was him to get under my skin. He never did. God and FR kept me sane. :)
The Greeks frequently warned in their own literature that those who suffered from hubris would always meet a nemesis. It would be some event, some outcome the audience knew was going to happen, but the hero in their hubris never acknowledged the signs or examined their own actions.
Today the Democrats are reaping the bitter fruit of Hubris. There will always be a pitfall for those who are not looking where they are stepping.
Comments are worth reading for their enjoyment. Here’s one:
“This story is right on the money! My local Democratic club had its Christmas party last night and it was one big therapy session.”
Like a recurring
Nightmare for these
Snowflakes with
No End in sight.

The Tears are Delicious!
Democrats are cowering in the corner anticipating their next beating. i would bet that their sense of hopelessness, powerless and foreboding fear will drive many of them to embrace the Donald. To ease their pain, they’ll change to the winning side. Stockholm Syndrome.
Some of us see a non-progressive candidate as being just as bad as Trump, perhaps worse.
Huh. I didn’t read the whole article, but I thought she must’ve been referring to Hillary.
Oh wait, Dems don’t care if Dems aren’t held accountable for their criminality......Dems only care when most of the country doesn’t buy into their sick narrative ‘Orange Man Bad’.
Embrace the Donald,
Some may
Perhaps.
No rest for the wicked nor peace to those steeped in hate and derision. Those who continue should be wary of the Lord deciding ‘enough’.
I think they actually believe it. Geobbels would love to have this target audience.
This thread has great insight into TDS
They did it to themselves.
I think it is quite simple. Impeachment that they so longed for is not going to remove Trump from office! They know that. The Senate trial will be a disaster for Schiff and Nadler.
And that’s the problem: they believe it and it’s a lie! They’re nuts.
All. Of. Them.
If you're feeling nervous, anxious, etc. due to the ongoing success of President Trump's policies across the board... If you're looking at the 2020 election and wondering if your self-aggrandizing elitist thought leaders have arranged enough election fraud to win... If you're worried that the wheels are coming off the impeachment charade and that real investigations into leftists' abuses of power might actually occur... Here's what you can do to alleviate your suffering you poor thing...
Suck it up snowflake and get back to work. Or go get a job. With record low unemployment and high labor force participation rates in the Trump economy the only real excuse for being out of a job is you live in one of the leftist/democratic run hell-holes where overly burdensome regulations continue to squash businesses and jobs. (I'm looking at you San Francisco, Seattle, Baltimore...)
Conservatives sucked it up for 8 brutally long years under bammy. We watched him try to "fundamentally transform" America. We watched him set race relations back decades. We watched him put law enforcement personnel and first responders at risk. We watched his policies erode America's position in the world. We watched him arm drug cartels. We watched him literally give billions of dollars to terrorists. We watched him weaponize (in some cases literally arming) various government agencies and entities. (the effects of which are still being felt in DOJ) Did we p**s and moan and whine about microaggressions and needing "safe spaces?" No. We did what we could with what we had. We persevered.
Now it's your turn libtards. Persevere, if you can. If you cannot, then maybe, just maybe your ideas and ideals aren't worth keeping around.
Feeling awful? I’m quite entertained to live in such interesting times.
I, too, went through a similar experience. I was unhappy and worried living in the horrible world of Obama and every anti-American rotten thing he did. My faith in God is central to my world view and so my faith helped me get through it, too. As for Obama, I believed his victory was an anomaly. The financial crisis of 2008 propelled him into office, along with a brilliant campaign of nothingness cloaked in feel good nonsense but masquerading a Marxist Islamist. The GOP made huge gains in 2010 and that helped reaffirm to me that reality would eventually prevail. Romney was a terrible candidate in 2012 and acted like he wanted to lose . And then got sent us Trump!
When you think about it “projection” is really just the “logical outworking” of the biblical knowledge that “sinners are pursued by their sin.” Sort of “wherever you go, there you are”. Whatever they do, say, or go, everything is filtered by their sin. Everything they see, everything they hear. They BECOME their sin. I guess, like the KGB is alleged to have understood. You don’t need detectives people will tell you their sin. Just give them a chance. It is the secret of Jeff Epstein’s success. You will gladly share every worst sin with someone who is an even “greater sinner”. Who better to brag about sin with than a known global pedophile?
