Democrats are paying dearly for lying about Trump's comments regarding violent MS-13 gang members, poll says.

One of the trifecta issues along with support for Hamas, and NK. I'm not sure one issue can be isolated in a very bad week for the libs.

Millennials are leaving the Democratic Party in droves. Apparently they are seeing the democrats for what they are for the first time. They are not so quick to accept or defend violent criminals the way Dem leadership expected.

Cue the selective outrage. Where was this concern for civility when Hillary "deplorables" Clinton said the NRA reminded her of the "Iranians" and the "communists"? Recall, too, Clinton's own "animals"-type description of some black criminals. In 1996, Clinton said: "We need to take these people on. They are often connected to big drug cartels. They are not just gangs of kids anymore. They are often the kinds of kids that are called superpredators.

Selective outrage.
If Obama had described KKK members as animals, very few people would have disagreed or defended the Klan.

Who would have thought vile, and completely false attacks against the President would backfire on the democrats.

Things are not going the way the dems thought they would, and all their dirty tactics are blowing up in their faces.

If the democrats were smart, they would tell Mueller to end his witch hunt, then shut their mouths, and come up with some platform for their party.

That's what they would do if they were smart, but they aren't, they insist on continuing to do what has gotten them into this mess in the first place.

Pulosi gets irate when Trump calls MS13 Animals then proceeds to call Rocket Boy a Thug when Trump tries to work a deal.

As you say... Selective outrage.

BTW, have you seen Pulosi's speeches lately. I think she was hit too hard in her Pro Football days and must have some serious brain damage. She can barely get out a sentence out now.

She’s been that way for a long time now. Her cheese slipped off her cracker back in the 90s.
Senility, dementia?
The strain and brain-drain of decades spent with liberal loonies....?

She certainly is the democrats outdated ammunition trying to compete with todays smart bombs. She wobbles around and manages to wound commonsense. So she isn't a complete dud yet. I'm not sure she is the worst the Dems have. Its a toss up with trying to listen to Crying Chuck between sobs.

I know this is off topic, but IMO Chuck and Trump know each other well, have a certain NY simpatico for each other and are playing a political long game with each other.

I don't know about Democrats leaving "in Droves." This is the Daily Wire, after all, and they are known to go for alternative "facts," especially when they can make conservatives look good and liberals look bad. But I can say this. The first time I heard about Trump's "animals" comment was on NPR, where I get most of my news. They gave the story in context and I knew from that first story that he was talking about M-13. There was never any misinformation from NPR. I don't know about other sources. But "all" democrats were not being lied to or being mislead.

It’s okay, they quickly switched gears and defended MS-13 from Trump’s awful, dehumanizing name calling. Because I’m sure most in the Hispanic community love having these guys carve up their children with machetes. They are their main victims after all.

Seriously, who are they trying to please with this idiocy?

Millennials !!!

Millennials are leaving the Democratic Party in droves.

I would have to see more evidence of that myself.
I'm not really buying it but that was the claim in the link.
