It’s an odd day when you have to openly wonder which side of anything one of the two major political parties is on regarding issues, either good or bad, for the country. Thanks to what the Democrats have become, this is where we find ourselves. Most movements try to control or marginalize their radical fringe. Democrats gave them the keys to the car and climbed in the trunk.
A big part of the left is so insulated from the reality that every other American lives in that they might as well live on a different planet. MSNBC’s Chris Hayes has been part of the chorus of unoriginal leftists insisting Kamala Harris lost because of racism and sexism, yet he now seems to think a significant portion of Trump voters would have shoved aside their racism and sexism if only they’d known he would ever consider bombing Iran over their nuclear program.
Chrissy tweeted, “I truly do not think that if Trump had campaigned on ‘if I win, we will bomb Iran’ that he would have won.” Tell me you don’t know any Trump voters without telling me you don’t know any Trump voters.
Trump has been calling for preventing Iran from gaining a nuclear weapon for more than a decade and said as much on the campaign trail repeatedly. Chris must get his news from MSNBC or something.
Certainly not unique in any way, Hayes was one of many voices expressing confusion and anger over what our government did to protect us, our allies, and the free world. It really kind of tells you everything you need to know about them as a party.
Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy – serious contender for worst father of the year as he settles in with the almost 20 years younger woman he left his wife and kids for – was desperate to undercut the moral authority of the United States of America because he suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome (along with God knows what else, but I’d have to assume at least some of them are penicillin resistant and impact brain function) so he tweeted, “here was no imminent threat. I got briefed on the same intelligence as the Speaker.”
It's disturbing how many Democrats are upset they weren’t briefed on the US raid before it happened, with many crying that they weren’t given a chance to weigh in on it by the White House seeking Congressional approval. These idiots have replaced thinking they should be President with thinking they ARE President.
We only have one Commander-in-Chief at a time, and none of those people are. The President doesn’t have to seek approval for acting in the country’s best interest – he has 90 days to seek it after the fact, should the action be sustained. These actions are not going to be sustained; they are over. Democrats seem mad that they weren’t able to leak the impending attack and indulge their urge to aid our enemies.
Ben Rhodes, who horrifyingly was Deputy National Security Advisor for Barack Obama, tweeted, “Trump's message to the world: if you have nukes like North Korea, I'll trade love letters with you, if you don't, I'll pull out of agreements you're keeping and bomb you during diplomacy. Just devastating to non-proliferation.”
Did he really not realize that his “reasoning” is exactly why Iran cannot be allowed to get a nuclear weapon, and why they’ve been pursuing one? I mean, it explains a lot, but it’s like discovering that not only was your Uber driver dumb, he was legally blind too.
The ignorance on display has to be deliberate. Sure, some Democrats are genuinely stupid people – Eric Swalwell, AOC, Dan Goldman – but others are vile liars and frauds – Jamie Raskin, Hakeem Jeffries, Nancy Pelosi. Which camp is dominant at any given moment is something for each individual to decide for themselves, but there really are only those choices (and a third category that is a little from column A and a little from column B).
Whatever the case, the result is the same and leaves the audience wondering whose side the Democrats are really on? On issue after issue, none more clearly than taking out a terrorist regime’s nuclear weapons capabilities, the answer is abundantly clear: “Not America’s.”
