The American Left Is Completely Insane

It's September 2019, and here's where we are: The political left in this country is completely insane.

Elected Democrats are demonstrably incompetent. Democrats running for president warn constantly that President Trump is teetering on the verge of totalitarian fascism, all the while promising all the unconstitutional laws they will impose upon the country by executive fiat if elected. And our press (yes, they're overwhelmingly on the left) has lost all semblance of journalistic integrity.

A few months ago, I wrote, "It's time to abolish Congress." I was half joking when I started that piece but had myself pretty well convinced by the time it was completed. Things have only gotten worse since. This past week, we've been treated to the latest congressional theater of the absurd, as House Judiciary Committee Chair Jerry Nadler attempted to hold hearings on the possibility of impeaching President Trump. But the committee's first witness, Corey Lewandowski, Trump's former campaign manager, wouldn't play along. Lewandowski used his opening statement to call out Democrats' "false narrative" and accuse them of lying to the American public "with the purpose of undermining the legitimacy of the 2016 election results."

Lewandowski's combative approach scored points with viewers. Millions of Americans who voted for Trump see these latest ruses and political machinations for what they are.

The moral of the story is that anything that starts out liberal ends up radical left if not checked early on.
While there are still elected Dems who don't go out of their way to make fools out of themselves like Beetle O'Rourke, their numbers seem to be dwindling.
My own congressman, Dem-Ron Kind, is not the type who makes O'Rourke or Liz Warren/Kamala Harris radical socialist statements.
He usually keeps silent but still toes the liberal line on most things. In other words I don't trust him. Is there one elected Dem who still loves traditional America? I wonder.

Indeed they are, yet the rest of the political establishment is on a trampoline.
Essentially, those who permit politics to rule their lives rather than values,
deserve eternal disappointment!

"The political left in this country is completely insane."

No. They are not all "insane".
Behind the "loony leftists" are others who are cool and calculating.
Like Jarrett behind obama, they're the ones who often "pull the strings".

And they are for the most part hard-core communists, slowly working to transform America.
And in many ways, they are succeeding.
Hence, my "American Timeline":
2019: USA -- United States of America
2027: USSA -- United Socialist States of America
2035: USSSA -- United Soviet Socialist States of America
2042:  ?????

I had a rare conversation with an old left wing friend today on the current political scene.

He’s got it bad, and yes, sadly, regarding his political POV he’s quite insane.

I fully support the self destruction of the Democommie Party.  Their present day architect, AOC will continue to lead them into further ruin, and the American people are not going to follow.  What these people do not comprehend is that the independent voter pretty much determines who will be holding national positions in the House, Senate and POTUS.  They are not going to vote for the radical insanity that is taking place in the Democommie Party.

Thus, it is self evident that the outcome of 2020 is already determined barring a catastrophic event.  All things continuing on the track they are on, and the Republicans will experience one of the greatest victories in USA history.  I see no way the Dems hold on to any power.  The election next year will be absolutely brutal for the Democommies. 

Even AOC is being challenged within her own party.  She may be history soon.  However, I fully expect her to run against Jillibrand or Schumer if she is forced out of her Rep position.

While an overthrow of Congress would change things, I think a more appropriate approach is the establishment of

T   E   R   M      L   I   M   I   T   S



The question is, how to make that happen when the very people you want to embrace term limits are the ones to ignore that as an outcome.
