In case you haven't noticed, we're not dealing with the same Democratic Party of 5 or 10 years ago.They were once critical of capitalism's excesses, conservatives now have to deal with open socialistswho show disdain for everything American.They push four of the worst policies that their radical base promotes. They are 1. Get rid of I.C.E. 2. Repeal the tax cuts 3. Embrace Socialism 4. Open Calls for Violence. If ever we were looking down the maw of the dragon's throat, this is it..

    No surprise they are becoming irrelevant . Death is never easy, always messy
    .“A dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot.”
    ― Robert A. Heinlein, Friday
    A quote So good I used it twice today.
    ICE enforces laws that protect children from human trafficking.
    Something that the Dem elites allegedly are customers of.

      An excellent quote. I hope you are right in your analysist. Everything surrounding the 2016 election and its subsequent events were unexpectently unusual, so I find it hard to predict a win until it is won.

        Here is my Dem response for this week.
        "How can you even ...... with nursing babies being ripped from their mother's bosoms"
        Note how this week I dropped "at the border".

            Believe it or not President Trump must have a bias against breast feeding, or bosoms in general The story broke 2 days ago.
            The left has ample cleavage to bust out against the sweater of injustice after this tweet.

            The President of the USA Donald J Trump
            "The failing NY Times Fake News story today about breast feeding must be called out. The U.S. strongly supports breast feeding but we don’t believe women should be denied access to formula. Many women need this option because of malnutrition and poverty."

            Add this to his list of his over flowing cup of deplorable characteristics, he must be some kind of a boobist or
            a Tittiephobe at the perky least.

    To embrace Socialism used to the wink, wink, nudge, nudge Democrat hole card, but being Trumped has made them crazy enough to toss all their cards up into the air.

    Find the Stefan Interview of an Ex-Cuban who is in Texas writing books now... About Che and he mentions that in Cuba, Castro admitted "We could not have done this WITHOUT THE AID of the MEDIA"...

    The media has been aiding the destructions of countries for a LONG LONG time.. Selective coverage, Yellow Journalism or FakeNews... Take your pick.

      The media has plenty of blame in the current movement to Socialism. They are as ignorant as their readers, perhaps more so. They can likely name the politicians and the issues involved in discussions while their readers cannot but that makes them better informed, not smarter.

    The left/communist/socialists have pushed things past words. There will not be just one shot heard 'round the country. I fear one huge wretch or spasm that will push things over the edge. Just like the civil war, sides will be or already have been chosen and the battle begins.

      How did it get this way? I think that some of the blame should be taken by the Republicans. I cannot recall a time when they ever set up any kind of program promoting the benefits of Capitalism. Or seeing that civics is taught in schools, etc. They just automatically assumed that because everyone was sharing the benefits of Capitalism that they automatically understood its benefits.

        America fought the revolutionary war because capitalism was preferred over socialism of the king of England. I remember taking a civics class in high school in 1965. America became the economic power that it is due to the capitalistic explosion of the early 1900's.
        Are you saying we can only appreciate capitalism by descending into socialism. I fear that only a deep descent that we cannot recover from would be required to wake up the entire country. It is kind of like cutting off your arm to appreciate having had it to begin with.

          No it won't take that long. If in2024 the Dems get elected, there will be, in a week or two, a person knocking on your door telling you what new job you've been assigned to. You were a photographer? now you are a baker. But, but, but.....No matter how many buts, you better learn how to bake a wedding cake.This is what happened in NAZI Germany to a customer of mine. He got out asap. Not because he was an idealog but because it was too irrational for him to cope with.

        I agree that some blame should be taken by the Republicans - and yes! Just for being apathetic. If there is one thing which is clear throughout the history of the United States is that evil wins mostly because good does nothing. We don't have a society teetering on the brink of socialism/fascism solely because of the socialists and fascists, but because we as capitalists didn't do enough to promote capitalism.

          Right! And so it goes. They won't even use the mildest of punishments, Contempt of court. They make it seem as some terrible punishment. It's being clapped in jail until someone bails you out. Even I could do that.

      Listen to this quote and it will give you a deeper understanding of the left mentality. "It doesn't matter to me. I'm not trained for any job. If it gets me one so I can go out at night and smoke a little pot, I'm happy. Better still, If I can't work, they still pay me. What the hell." One of the many mob interviews that I happened to write down.

        Is that a mobster talking about working for the mob or the government? I bet the mob doesn't pay if you don't work.

          Its not THE mob, but an interview with one of the anti Trump mob members. It was recorded but quickly faded into obscurity so I don't even know who the interviewer is. But the guy being interviewed was more coherent than many of his ilk and I was impressed by how a person of obvious intelligence was willing, amost happy to waste his life.

    We can no longer tolerate the Democratic Party. It is extreme socialist bordering on Communist. The Democratic Party seeks to destroy the nation which so many have given their lives to defend. They are an evil force that must be eliminated soon. All freedom loving citizens must rise up to defeat this evil force. If we don't we will loose our nation to their radical socialist actions. Rise up before it is too late.

      I'm beginning to believe that freedom is not a commodity that the world chooses to want. There is little understanding of what the word means in relation to actual lives. We have done a lousy job promoting it.

    A minority of the democratic along with the media is a huge problem for the dems. The media who report the news don't know that they are shooting themselves in the foot. They are low-level employees serving up this over the top, one-sided picture of capitalism. They are part of a dying media and will go the way of the dodo bird. The people at the top of their companies are all wealthy and pay peanuts. If they had any sense at all they would embrace capitalism, to quote a famous person, "what have they got to lose?".

    I think this will either cause the demise of the democratic party, OR cause the demise of the entire country if it takes over.

    Sanders would have been the democratic nominee if Hildebeast had not pulled the dirty power plays to get him kicked out. This time around, we have a good chance for the democratic nominee to be an avowed socialist.

    Whether democrats will win in 2018 (likely take the senate IMHO(, or win presidency in 2020 (probably unlikely, but certainly possible) is up for grabs at this point.

    Republicans are in pretty bad shape intellectually and morally. Not a good alternative.

      Oh, I think that Trump will triumph in 2020. After that -- Who knows? If the Dems learn by their mistakes and they win, it's over. If they continue to lose, violence is the next step. Either way, it is the end of the American experiment.

        Whether trump wins in 2020, or in fact keeps a majority in the congress in 2018 is up to so much propaganda and emotional issues that its hard to tell.

        If N Korea blows up in Trumps face, and his standing firm to china, canada, and EU on trade doesnt work, I think he is in trouble. And who knows how that turns out.

        The left IS violent by nature, and if 2018 falls to the democrats, its time to really get serious about self defense- preferably by moving to a less populated place near sources of food and defensible and somewhat hidden areas.

          The only place in the world where humans can be human is being attacked by the world.From within and without the world seems to say, "We want you to be just like us." Freedom is not a price we're willing to pay. We'd rather be taken care of-- even if we are kinda slaves.

            I am truly tired of hearing about all this liberal crap. I hardly watch TV, never watch late night "entertainment", hardly watch FOX anymore since they tout "fair and balanced", and really have little to do with non deplorables. Being around people is better than being alone, EXCEPT when those people are liberals.

        Nobody comes out of a violent action unscathed.
        The last option is the best reason and that is self defense. I take a logical defense over an emotional offense.

          This kind of talk reminds me of the Detroit riots. We were out of town vacationing and came home just as it started Imagine coming home to see tanks rolling down the street.The drug store where I worked as a kid was burned to the ground and the owner, a pal of mine, said he would never rebuild there again. From then on Detroit started to crumble.

            Riots destroy the local infrastructure, push business and commerce away. That exodus of productive people who saw the writing on the wall migrated to other cities. Who can blame them.

              My friend was through with it. Between thieves shoplifting and all the other trial and tribulations of keeping a business going, he just went to work for a chain. "I make as much money and no aggravation."

    This is the rise before the fall. Its the inflation of the balloon before the pop. The questions which remain will be:
    1) Are they dedicated enough to take up arms and die for their cause? (The other side is and will. Harney County showed that.)
    2) How many will seriously question themselves at the moment of crisis and exercise the ounce of reason necessary to understand the fallacy they have been led to believe?
    3) How many in the middle - the apathetic - will finally choose a side?

      Answers:
      1. Some are, some aren't. If, however, the trend continues for another 10 years or so, there'll be no doubt of nearly 100% participation and the war for not only America, but the souls of men starts.
      2.Zero. They base their actions upon emotion rather than logic.
      3. Some will but most will continue to dither until the threat is at their doorstep.

      The majority of young marxists will not take up arms. But, it doesn’t take many to cause big problems. To paraphrase Winston Churchill: Americans always choose the right side, after they choose all other sides, or no side at all.

        Good old Winnie the Wise.He didn't know Americans any more than the politicians did. The strange thing about freedom is when someone experiences it, or even a portion of it it remains in the psyche as a shining symbol that can never be forgotten and anything that threatens it will be fought against to the nth degree. Which is why lefties burden citizens with so many laws and regulations so they never experience freedom.

          Very true about Winston Churchill. He saw America as a monolithic society with FDR at the head. He couldn't have been more wrong. Churchill still thought that the greatest system of government invented is the British Parliament.

          I will give one thing to him, though: Churchill was a brilliant war planner and advocate for human rights. It was truly a shame when England tossed him out on his ear as soon as Hitler was done.

      The infiltration of leftist radicals in education are the villains here. It's truly upsetting to realize how few people think for themselves in any logical way. Plus, as I found with my cousins that emotion not reason plays the major role.

    The DNC is publicly ignoring the "Walk Away" movement, but is privately scared. The people walking away include young folks, minorities, and older Democrats who remember a more sane party. It's going to be interesting if some incumbent senators start jumping ship as well.

      I'm not so sure. For many years Democrats have been telling of the horrors of being a Republican, to the point where in the eyes of a Democrat, no matter what the facts are, becoming a Republican is the shame of shames.
