They're Just Not Like Us

An interesting article on Issues & Insights begins with a remarkable anecdote, from a town hall meeting that a Democrat U.S. Representative had with her supporters (emphasis mine):

At a town hall meeting last week, Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez — one of the few moderate Democrats left in the world — made a perfectly common-sensical statement: “Americans believe that only U.S. citizens should be determining the outcome of American elections.” She was greeted with a torrent of shouts, boos, and profanity, signs that said “shame” from her constituents, and was ushered out of room for “security reasons.” 

Her statement would not appear to be controversial to us.  Americans should decide American elections. Simple. Surely her supporters would agree that Palestinians should decide Palestinian elections. And Danes should decide Danish elections. And Argentinians should decide Argentinian elections. So why are they so violently opposed to Americans deciding American elections?

This is something that has bothered me for some time. Democrat voters seem to be becoming just as radical, and just as anti-American, as Democrat leaders. The Democrats have always had a few batshit crazy Bernie / AOC type left-wing ideologues who are so radical that they sound anti-American. That is not new. But this seems new – when Democrat VOTERS sound so radical and anti-American.

Granted, this was just one isolated group, at this town hall. But Democrat have become increasingly violent, from Black Lives Matter riots to Antifa retards trying to burn down a federal building in Portland  a few years ago to vandalizing and even torching Teslas today. The Democrat Party has spent decades building something that they cannot control. And I think some Democrat leaders are probably starting to figure that out.  Although if they think they can ride the hatred and radicalism back into power, I think they’re willing to tolerate it for now.

Robespierre is probably nodding his head right now, with a grim smile on his face. This probably looks familiar to him. Because like him, the Democrats have built something that they are about to lose control of.

Hang on tight – you ain’t seen nuthin’ yet…
