Democrat Strategy Avoids Short-Term Pain but Guarantees Long-Term Agony
Kurt Schlichter
You might be excused for thinking that the Democrats are flat-out insane in clinging as tightly as their girlish arms can to the dismal side of a raft of 80% v. 20% hot-button issues and ostentatiously obstructing the ability of the winners of the last election to govern, but there’s a method to their mendacity. The total war strategy by the party that mostly can’t do a push-up – the recent spate of embarrassing consultant-driven videos of congressweenies pumping aluminum notwithstanding – is a bluff, a fake, a front. Democrats are not fighting Republicans – they really can’t since we just ran the table on all three branches. They are fighting each other, with the Loony Left terrified of the Even Loonier Left.
All this stuff, from Cory Booker’s Spartacus monologues performed for an empty Senate to packs of Dem reps being dissed and dismissed by GS-5s at the doors of ICE jails to the endless cringerrific vids they litter our X timelines with, is them not trying to win the battle against the GOP. They can’t. It’s an attempt to prove their Bolshevik bona fides to the kooks to their left who are eyeing their seats. It’s performance art and, like all performance art, it’s a painful combination of stupid and ridiculous that appeals only to a select group of goofs. Unfortunately for Team Donkey, it’s those goofs who are currently ascendant.
There are so many examples of them attempting to avoid the crocodiles by hiding in the minefield. The border issue comes to mind. Even their reptile brains understand that they can’t very well scream because Trump slammed shut the border doors that President Eggplant and Vice President Down-the-Hatch threw open. That’s why they are stuck complaining incessantly about Trump kicking the Third World invaders out. But they can’t just complain that we’re being a little harsh – we’re not being anywhere near harsh enough, of course. No, they have to shriek in the defense of perverts, thugs, gangbangers, murderers, wife beaters, and other assorted scumbags. Every single time they offer up some examples of ICE’s perfidy in the regime media, a deeper dive reveals this guy’s got a record that makes Jeffrey Dahmer look like Mother Teresa. When you’re to the point that you’re so afraid of your own left wing that you fly down to El Salvador to have margaritas with a dude who beats on his wife like a French president’s wife beats on him – I take no position on the question of whether or not Brigitte Macron has a penis – you know you’ve crossed the line into insanity.
