Why the Democrats Can Expect to Lose a Lot of Elections
American Thinker.com ^ | May 4, 2022 | Frank Friday

Twenty twenty was a bitter defeat for many of us, and the charges of fraud were not without merit. What wasn't true however were the tales of rigged voting machines swinging the election. As I wrote not long afterward, the truth emerged, and it was just the same illegal ballot-harvesting operation the leftist activists always run, but this time with hundreds of millions in Silicon Valley dollars and the connivance of some election officials.

The new documentary out this week brilliantly documents how all this happened: D'Souza's 2000 Mules.

For all the illegality, though, I think 2020 is going to be seen as a Pyrrhic victory, with so many of the Democrats' bad ideas catching up with them and as the black and Hispanic base sours on Biden and his party. A wipe-out in 2022 will surprise no one.

To a certain extent, we have been here before. Voters back in the 1980s walked away from the Democrats, heralding the Reagan Revolution, and many never looked back. But a lot of party leaders understood their problems and did something about it. The moderate Democratic Leadership Council, the DLC, which launched Bill Clinton's national career, were effective in pushing back on the McGovern wing and at least pretended to be sensible centrists. "The era of big government is over," they said.

Today, the DLC is long gone, and even in the face of upcoming election collapse, the Democrats seem to be happy to take their marching orders from the kookiest people they can find, like AOC, who wants Biden to go even farther to the left.

It will surprise me. The democrats know that they can cheat on a massive scale, and the most blatant ways, and get away with it. Why wouldn't they do it again?

Right- there were many and various methods to steal the election.
I maintain that the Liberals have been doing it for decades (or longer) and with complete impunity. Nothing else explains how so many truly inept and ignorant Liberals get into office and stay there.

They have it down pat by now and don’t even bother to hide their criminal activity.

We need to blame the GOP as well, they have looked the other way for too long.

“Same with legalizing Marijuana. Those who normally sit out elections rise from their couches, drift by the polls, and proceed to shred The Republic”

The GOP could have headed that off by joining bipartisan legislative relegalization - but instead they kowtowed to the puritanical nitwits in their ranks.

Now I’ve learned that my use of “Marijuana” is racist! (Against Mexicans).

Use of “puritanical” suggests the following quote:

“If control of language was centralized in a political agency, Orwell proposes, such an agency could possibly alter the very structure of language to make it impossible to even conceive of disobedient or rebellious thoughts, because there would be no words with which to think them.”
—George Orwell

“Puritanical” could describe those in uniform who tried to enforce early drug laws, but were repressed by judges and their lawyer-friends.
