Sometimes you can spot a disaster happening from across the room, and despite your instinct to help prevent it, you can’t and it happens – a tray of food falls to the floor, someone trips, or someone is caught trying to get away with something. Whatever it is, by the time what happens unfolds and registers in your head it is over, even though its unfolding seemed in slow motion, like a car crash. When it comes to the slow motion collapse of the Democratic Party…just sit back and enjoy the show.
Imagine losing an election in large part because of the radical fringe of your party, then embracing those people as the way forward afterwards. Doubling down on crazy is, well, crazy, right?
It is. Yet, that is what the Democrats are doing.
News broke over the weekend that David Hogg, the anti-Second Amendment activist, was elected Vice-Chair of the Democratic National Committee. He’d been endorsed by Eric Swalwell, the gassy ignoramus from California known for having fallen for Chinese Communist “honey pot” on his ascension to Congress.
Hogg had previously publicly declared, “Abolish ICE,” “Defund the police not USPS,” “The NRA needs to be designated a terrorist organization for the role their supporters played in staging and insurrectionist coup,” and “Unlike Covid there is no vaccine for climate change once we start feeling the impacts we can just implement and survive. There is only one solution- prevention.”
He's AOC with less muscle mass.
Hogg also insisted, “You have no right to a gun. You are not a militia. When you're talking about your second amendment rights you're talking about a states right to have what is today the national guard. The modern interpretation of 2A is a ridiculous fraud pushed for decades by the gun lobby.”
Then, as if some sort of plant by the GOP to torpedo the DNC from within, Hogg admitted, “Like I'm already one of the most politically toxic people in the country. Any politician doing anything with me is in effect committing political suicide. You really are barking up the wrong tree if you think I'll ever have enough power to impact anything.”
If I’d been able to appoint someone to a leadership post for Democrats, I’m not sure I wouldn’t have picked David Hogg. He brings in no one new while driving people away every time he opens his mouth. The only way he could be more out-of-touch with average Americans if he wrapped his head in an Arafat doily and chanted about how Israel and the United States need to be wiped from the Earth. You know, like your typical college leftist.
While elevating someone without a kind word to say about the country, Democrats are also attacking the most success man on the planet: Elon Musk.
Formerly a hero to the left for his work in single-handedly making the electric car viable and desirable, he’s now a monster for simply embracing the concept of free speech for all. They call him “President Musk” in an attempt to drive a wedge between him and President Trump, while doing all they can to belittle the idea of fighting government waste.
Naturally, they are the authors of much of that waste, so it would make sense they’d do all they can to distract from its discovery, but it will be discovered. There is no distraction large enough to cause people to forget how their money (more accurately, their credit because their money is long since gone) is being wasted. Scroll through the X feed for the Department of Government Efficiency and you’ll see it reads like the first credit card statement of a drunken college freshman discovering what “maxed out” really means.
Which do you think appeals most to the American people, a scolding wokester seeking to use government power against his fellow Americans or the most consequential American since Thomas Edison who has accomplished more than many countries have? My money is on Musk.
Democrats can’t help themselves. It’s not that they embrace destruction, it’s that they are destruction and aren’t aware of it. Fish don’t know they’re wet, after all.
So, sit back and enjoy the show. You can’t stop it, nor should you try. They deserve it, after all.
