"In a time of crazy, it’s been a Hell of a week. I literally wrote the book on the liberal outrage culture and this week disturbed even me. There are some things you simply can’t undo, some ledges you can’t pull back from. We’re teetering on one now. How can we, as a nation, get back to civility or even just get along again"


When people react on emotion and not logic this is where it goes.

Pubs hold all the levers.

They LOVE to brag about how they own congress, the WH, the courts, and most of the states.

They LOVE to point out that "Obama cost the Dems over a thousands seats!"

What they DON'T love is governing.

"It's the Dems' fault!"

So amusing.

"Make no mistake, this mob is not the majority, or even anywhere close to plurality, but history is littered with examples of small, committed and violent gangs of thugs obtaining power through a willingness to do anything to get it. That’s what Democrats are becoming – American Castros, Khmer Rouge, Gestapo, or whatever example you like. These are all different sides of the same “progressive” dice and liberals are gearing up to roll them."

Liberals, on Monday they're complaining that immigration is too strict. By Friday they're complaining that income inequality is out of control, there aren't enough jobs, capitalism is evil, healthcare needs to be free, the rich are getting richer, and wages are stagnant.

It's weird that the left is so desperate to have immigrants from all over the world come to America to be poor like us natives in this evil capitalist country.

They are practicing projection with their "low information" followers, they are accusing others of exactly what they are practicing. It must be in their handbook, but they talk about "fascism" and the "Gestapo", yet their attack on both democracy and immigrants show they are trying to repeat history from 75 years prior in Europe.

Pretty much what Trump voters did.

In their desperation, they turned to a man they didn't fully understand..

"All the while, party leadership is silent. What 2 years ago would have rightly been condemned as unacceptable in a civil society has become the electoral strategy of the Democratic Party."

"It’s been building to this for some time, the economy is booming at a pace liberals declared impossible and the unemployment rate is so low they can’t even claim to offer to create jobs because there are more available than we can fill. Democrats have nothing to sell the American people but being the alternative to what they declare evil. For that declaration to carry any emotional weight the hateful flames of their fringe have to be stoked to engulf enough people to motivate them to vote in November. The question is, will November come before the spark they’re building toward that ignites something awful?"
