Apparently Democrats hate MAGA people except when they try to get them nominated so they can defeat them in the general election.

“Democrats are intervening aggressively in Republican primaries,” having spent $20 million already “to promote MAGA-aligned candidates” who “are likely losers in a general election,” reports National Journal’s Josh Kraushaar. The “meddling” is “paying dividends, potentially taking several big-state governor’s races off the table for Republicans.” In Pennsylvania, Democrats spent “more money on a single ad” boosting “far-right Republican Doug Mastriano” than he “spent on TV ads in his entire primary campaign.” Dems may yet get “involved in even more upcoming GOP primaries” in Arizona, Maryland, Michigan and Wisconsin. So: “How seriously does the party take its own argument that American democracy itself is threatened by Republicans when they’re boosting some of the most radical conspiracists and election-deniers for naked political gain?”

Democrats voting in Virginia’s open primary in 2016 is how Trump won the state. I had neighborhood Democrats who did it, they knew Hillary was a sure bet for their candidate and the polls were showing Trump had the least chance of beating her. Had they not done that chances are very good we would be talking about who be taking over after President Rubio’s second term.

You would have thought they would have learned their lesson from that stunt. Some of those extremists are going to win for the same reason Trump did in ‘16 and Biden in ‘20, the alternative is viewed as so incredibly untenable that the public decides to hope the unknown candidate is slightly less damaging.

What is so bad about MAGA? Then again Obama did tell us that America was never great and this is how our Elected Elite feel about the USA. The Dems do not want a strong America and it is showing through their words and actions.



Let them play their games leading up to election but we all need to watch them carefully because they cannot be allowed to steal it again.
