Roger, I think a better analogy is the Chinese cultural revolution instead of the French Revolution. The only logical explanation to the Democrats position is that they are intentionally taking down our Republic by following the Marxist doctrine, and Mao's little red book. Destroy the culture, Destroy any common sense of normal. Wreck the family unit. Attack the country's history and Christian values. This is and has been for many years a true insurrection. They are the useful idiots of the Chinese Communist Party in alliance with the World Economic Forum elite.
True enough. There are elements of both. China is our chief enemy certainly. Interestingly, I was there in 1979 at the tail end of the Cultural Revolution during the Gang of Four period. Some Cultural Rev artifacts were still in place like the May 7 Cadre Schools that took desk workers and made them spend a year on a rural farm to be declassed. Funnily enough, unlike almost everything else about the Cultural Rev, that wasn't a bad idea. Imagine taking something of the Dem Clowns of today and making them have to shovel manure.
My son spent a year in China working for a German/French pharmaceutical company. My wife and I went to visit him in 2006. He remarked that there were a few old Chinese men working for the company and a number of young Chinese people but no one my age. I reminded him of the Cultural Revolution and that most of the people with business aptitude were eliminated. He then saw the same thing in all the aspects of business life he encountered.
True and it makes no sense. It isn’t any longer like the Democrats have any real power. They have no stance to stump on other than old, tired Transgender issues as the above article states well. They keep taking the low road. Can’t say I feel sorry for the one little bit.
"How could they not have realized the results of their decision on women’s sports was misogynistic? This was supposed to be the party of women and yet they ignored the possibility that their own family members could be raped by a trans woman in the locker room, let alone humiliated by her/him on the playing field to the extent that the sport itself was rendered irrelevant."
There go the Dems again...claiming to speak for an entire demographic they think they "own".
A personality, I think not. The Democrat party has devolved into a cult. I saw the beginnings of it with the treatment of Obama, he was revered as a god. Everything he did and said was divine, he reminded me of Jim Jones and the party has drunk the Kool-Aid and is in the death throws.
I, like you, was dismayed at their lack of appreciation for the ordinary citizens honored by President Trump. I get it that they hate Trump but I attribute that to a growing realization by the party that the long arm of accountability is slowing winding around their throats. But it was clear last night that they do not care about the country!
" the long arm of accountability is slowing winding around their throats." Yes, a most apt summation of the death of the Democrat Party. Because all those that sat on their hands at the joint assembly of our government don't have either the situational awareness nor the intellectual, in your face zeitgeist, of the current trend toward traditional values, and as such they will be lost in the wilderness for a long time. Never have I seen such lack of introspection by a political party. And I am 72.
Roger, I know you'll understand when I say I was raised as an "Irish-Catholic-South Side-Daley-Democrat." But like you, at some point along the way I realized the Democratic party left ME. They have descendedfrom a "We can do it! We can build it! We can fix it!" party to a "We're all f*cked and there's no way to fix it! Everyone should be as miserable we can make them because no one deserves to be happy" party.
Richard J and Tommy D'Alestrandro are spinning in their graves. Sad!
I watched that last night (well most of it. Until it was bed time). I asked myself this morning would a Tip O'Neill or Mike Mansfield allowed anything like that to happen?
OK..OK I understand they're Democrats and Donald Trump is a Republican. They don't like Republicans, and they REALLY don't like Trump. But That was STUPID!
So Democratic genes run deep into my family going back to Roosevelt. “Happy days are here again” ranked right up there with the National Anthem. My father left the party bc of Vietnam & it was Reagan who converted him to the Republican Party. Oddly enough despite his opposition to Vietnam he essentially became a neocon, though he was the first among us to jump on the Trump train in 2016. One would think that Reagan’s words (the Democrat party left me) would be applicable but even they fall short of the mark of explanation. It isn’t so much the change in ideas or political loyalties, it is the lock step manner in which they operate. I too was astounded that not 1 dem had the common or political sense to vote for slam dunk legislation. It is no longer a political party, it is a cult. Speaking as a woman, I hate to say this but the party is too womanized.
All the youth males have been chased out (and then they ran, and ran so hard away) from the Democrat party. Only a select few youth males still want to identify with party that virtue worships at the alter of the oppressed. The largest male vote for the Democrat party today are those with the least testosterone still stirring through their bodies.
Like you, I was a Democrat up until 2001 but changed after 9-11 and the reactions I witnessed to that tragedy. Last night I watched Nancy Pelosi 's face twitching while she continually licked her lips in her sucking teeth fashion. I saw Tlaib (the one who has a Palestinian flag outside her Congressional office door) with her crazy sign suggesting that Pres. Trump doesn't pay his taxes. I saw women in pink who supposedly wore that color in support of women ,yet who voted against the Laken Riley bill and the men in women's sports bill. I saw people who wouldn't stand to respect and empathize with a little boy who had brain cancer nor for a young man whose goal was to go to West Point --- and on and on. To me the Democrat Party is abhorrent , spiteful, nasty, noxious and toxic to our country. I could come up with more adjectives but you get the point. WHO even votes for such horrid non-persons? What is it about the current Democrats that anyone finds to support? They are irrelevant, useless, self-serving and dishonest and don't have a clue about the reality of governance and most U.S. citizens. Never would I ever vote Democrat again.
They are cornered. The Trumpster is shutting the door for them if they leave office. Many like Paul Ryan will just get another high paying do nothing job either in an NGO or some foundation that is mostly funded by taxpayer money. Many have no skills and no experience to fall back on. Bernie Sanders and Mayor Pete are good examples. They've never had to work for a living. As DOGE and the Trumpster shut off the taxpayer money to NGO's and Foundations these current Pols and their kin will have nowhere to go. It's scaring the crap out of them and that's one reason why they're so rabidly against anything associated with the Trumpster.
All true. They are all simply pawns inserted into Deep Blue seats by nefarious progressive oligarchs who pay for their campaigns. Chosen not for any inherent ability but because they will mindlessly support the Democrat's immoral agenda.
When you tell me you're a Democrat, you have inadvertently admitted to being deficient in one or more of the following areas: Knowledge, Mental Health, Intellect, or Morality.
I have this statement framed and hung on the wall in my office. I recommend the book, "The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness" by Lyle H. Rossiter, Jr., M.D.
"Their response (to Trump et al winning) is a way of protecting one's ego by deflecting or avoiding the feelings of shame and embarrassment. Additionally, being "sore losers" that all of the Dem attendees conveyed last night might be a sign of arrogant perfectionism, since the person may have an unrealistic expectation of always winning".
I believe the latter only partially explains Dem behavior last night; however; the other is the manifestation of the war between the left and the right or between the Patriots and the secular-humanist Marxists whom the latter are the apparent majority of Senate Democrats.
We can all assume that nascent Senators during initiation are told that "follow the leadership or else"; that is, "you cannot expect to be a member of our team if you choose to go rogue". Since, most political candidates run-for-office to have a lifetime of income and benefits, then upon initiation they are intimidated to mirror party leadership or you're threatened with "no campaign funding from us" come next-term elections. Moreover, since all humans, regardless of age tend to follow "group think" in their choice of whom they associate with, then how Dems behaved last night was a good example. And if many of those vacuous souls on the left-side of the Chamber approved of Trump's achievements, they just held up their silly paddles to solidify acceptance by their Dem groupies. This way they gain "good 'ol boy" acceptance status for at least the next six years or in perpetuity depending on how much Senate-leadership arse-kissing they're willing to endure.
Regardless, the Dem behavior is just plain intellectual, emotional and professional immaturity as a result of denying the negative consequences of their Marxist anti-humanity agenda (that is generally rooted in agnosticism or atheism).
Interesting, Randy Chambers. Which AI did you use? It's fascinating--and a bit unnerving--to see how different they can be. That analysis seems pretty reasonable but not all are. Each AI is owned by someone or some institution with an objective of their own.
Another chapter for the left wing progressive political play book titled "We Hate Trump, No Matter What!" I just pray that everything POTUS discussed comes to fruition for the sake of all Americans at which point we can spit in the eyes of all those pseudo intellectual lemmings who sat there their holding up their paddles in their lovely hypocritical pink dresses! You looked marvelous Nancy!
What is their platform going to be next year? Vote for us: we’re for men in your daughter’s locker room. We’re for Hamas. Were the part of more forever war. We’ll raise taxes.
Not a "personality disorder." It is a drive for power. A relentless desire for emotional satisfaction of winning, without regard for justification or consequences.
Gresham's law of politics. The worst drives out the best. Because the worst has no purpose except the will to power.
We can only hope these buffoons continue their childish ways at least thru the midterms! The display which was carefully choreographed (which makes it that much more pathetic) simply lays bare their desperation.

Trump was a tip O’Neill Mike Mansfield Democrat. He became a Republican where there was no alternative

The party is too womanized, but not by normal, well-adjusted women.

Only a select few youth males still want to identify with party that virtue worships at the alter of the oppressed. The largest male vote for the Democrat party today are those with the least testosterone still stirring through their bodies.
I'm afraid that it's now beyond a personality disorder and more like a pathology!
Excellent as usual Roger...the Democrats showed everyone watching last night who they really are !!! ... Pay attention America!
