Democrats Still Haven't Learned Their Lesson..Intend On Making America Un-American

[Mac1958]

I know what you're doing. You're trying to turn every effective, intelligent, and informative thread into a pissing contest.

Epic fail.

Well, actually, what you started the thread with was an incoherent rant.

Unfortunately the OP is correct.

The decent, traditional, non-crazed Democrats need to find a way to get this party back.

Sorry, Mac. You still can't tell dirty jokes in the office.

I have two very decent, traditional, non-crazed democrat friends, that incidentally both voted for obama both times, but voted for Trump because they got disgusted with where the dems were leading the country and with what obama was doing.

They have medications for imaginary friends.

Meanwhile, it the real world, Trump got a lower voter percentage than Romney did.

All those folks who voted for Stein and Johnson were the problem.. not the usual gang of bigots who voted for Trump.

My OP wasn't a rant, and anyone who read it could see that.

You're trying to communicate with a person who thinks that the national pushback against PC/Identity Politics that just buried his party is about being able to tell dirty jokes at work.

What would you expect?

[BluesLegend]

Dems need to keep Obama talking after January, he's the best thing for Republicans since Coolidge

Hey man, I'm related to president Coolidge you watch it bucko!

 

[mudwhistle]

My OP wasn't a rant, and anyone who read it could see that.

Guy, all of your OP's are rants. This one was nearly incoherent.

Here's a tip for good writing. Stick to one topic, don't meander all over the board.

Dude, all of your posts are irrelevant. .

I have a suggestion for you.......find gainful employment somewhere......preferably in another country because you seem to hate this one.

The Democrats show signs of moving even farther left than they are today. They invent phrases intended to mislead us into thinking that being a normal, average, Middle-Class American is what they call "Alt-Right", as if we're the radicals, not them.
Democrats have descended into a political party that actually brags about wanting to flood the country with foreigners just so they can cancel out the votes of the people that have been living here for generations. An ulterior motive is one that their donors are paying billions for. Which motive is that? It's simple....they want a permanent underclass of poor Americans that can't speak the language of the country and is uneducated to the point that they'll believe anything the Democrats tell them. You can't get your average college student to understand this. They literally freaked out when Hillary lost and are unwilling to accept that Hillary was using them to expand poverty in America. Our institutions of higher learning are creating thousands of pampered babies who refuse to listen to any viewpoint that isn't completely in line with the viewpoint that has been force fed to them all of their lives. This village mentality will eventually bear fruit with the destruction of this country as a productive Capitalist world power.

The most appreciative American these days seems to be a naturalized citizen that spent most of his or her life living under the thumb of authoritarian governments Democrats admire, governments like the U.S.S.R., or Communist Cuba. Ask any Cuban immigrant, they'll tell you how wonderful Fidel Castro was. (Sarcasm intended) It's no small wonder that Hillary lost. People are paying attention to this. Still, they insist they're on the right track. They've created plenty of new voters, just not enough. Maybe next time they'll be able to create enough of them to beat back the will of the American people.

Why the Democrats Can't Stop Calling the GOP Racists
By Karin McQuillan
President Obama, Democrat politicians and the mainstream media are still calling Trump KKK. They’re tarring his team as anti-Semites and racists. The electoral map would stop any normal politicians in their tracks, but Democrat hate speech is only getting louder and more hysterical. A major course correction is not going to happen for three reasons:

1. Democrat leadership;

2. Democrat donors;

3. Democrat voting blocks.

There is no force in the party that wants to change.

Democrats don’t debate Trump on the issues, because their agenda is a turn-off. Under the leadership of Alinskyite Barack Obama, the Democratic Party has degenerated from liberalism to progressivism. It has not been pretty. A focus on preferential treatment for blacks has given way to a war on cops. Caring about Hispanic Americans suddenly means America shouldn’t have borders and should have sanctuary for rapists and killers -- as long as they are here illegally.

Browbeating college kids by empowerring feminists and black activists with Title IX money has turned college campuses against freedom of thought and speech. Women’s issues have bizarrely turned into a war on masculinity. Gay rights has morphed into men in women’s bathrooms. Pro-choice turned into third-trimester infanticide and lawsuits against the Little Sisters of the Poor. Physical violence against Republicans is encouraged by President Obama and Clinton under the euphemism ‘protest.’

Democrat progressive politics is weird and ugly and dangerous, and people across the country have recoiled from it. As Marc Thiessen says with his usual eloquence, “You can drive some 3,000 miles across the entire continental United States — from sea to shining sea — without driving through a single county that voted for Hillary Clinton.”

Yet Democrats continue to think they can win by disrespecting the white working class and religious Americans, because “demographics are on our side,” as Obama stated defiantly after Trump’s electoral college blow-out. The wealthy coastal liberals and brown-skinned America are the only ones who count in Obama’s calculus. The map above strikes no chord in his heart.

Progressives want to rule all those red counties in perpetuity: a one-party state, based on racial voting. They look forward to a colonial society with the liberal elite ruling a continent from their isolated blue enclaves.

Obama remains triumphalist about his version of the Democrat party based on race. He told David Remnick:

“Democrats are well positioned to keep winning Presidential elections just by appealing to the base. And, each year, the demographic improves.”

His interviewer Remnick spells out what Obama means by improved demographics:

To put it more bluntly than Obama did, the nonwhite percentage of the population will continue to increase.

The Democrats have paid a high price for their campaign of progressive identity politics. The Obama impact on statehouses and state governors is far more devastating than the loss of one Presidential election.

“Under our current leadership, Democrats have been reduced to our smallest congressional minority since 1929. . . . We have the fewest Democrats in state and federal offices since Reconstruction.” – Rep. Tim Ryan, challenger to Nancy Pelosi for House Minority Leader

Yet the Democrat voices calling for a return to something resembling the Bill Clinton mainstream are few indeed – some lesser known journalists, one academic, Bill Maher, one or two Congressman from districts that voted Trump. It is not enough.

Obama so far has miraculously stood apart from the destruction he has wrought. He still aims to build a revolutionary cultural movement aiming at the “fundamental transformation of America.” Obama has no intention of retiring from politics as every President since George Washington has done.

Our outgoing President’s thoughts on the Trump victory: he and Michelle will get busy “creating… the next generation of leadership,” a new America where work and success are “disconnected.” Obama wants an America “in which productivity and wealth generation are not automatically linked to how many hours you put in, where the links between production and distribution are broken, in some sense.” His groupie interviewer, David Remnick, summarizes: Obama “seemed to be returning to the days when he was a community organizer in the Atgeld Gardens housing project, on the South Side of Chicago.”

In the immediate future, not insignificantly, there is a lot of radical leftist and racialist dirt about to be uncovered by Jeff Sessions at Obama’s DOJ, including the funneling of half a billion dollars to left-wing activist groups. That’s one reason Obama is leading the Democrats in a mad rush to delegitimize the new AG Jeff Sessions as a Klan supporter.

Obama’s race-based progressivism is shared by the leaders of the Democratic Party. The next DNC chair is likely to be the loathsome Keith Ellison, who is backed by Sanders, Warren, Schumer and Reid. Why? He is black and he is Muslim, perfect for attacking the Trump administration as racist and Islamophobic.

The structural damage to the Democratic machine has clearly been done, and the party seems incapable of realizing its own political mistakes. The influence of heavyweight progressive-movement donors continues to bind the party to its losing left-wing identity.

The most important voters in the Democrat base are sadly, our very ill served black community. Democrats are nothing without black block voting, which they curry not by helping blacks, but by hurting them with the big lie that white America is racist.

In a post-election New Yorker interview, Obama libels his own white working class voters, describing them as “people who may, nevertheless, have … biases about African-Americans or Latinos or women or gays.” Obama explained the Trump victory to his daughters as a “flare-up of bigotry.”

This is why, more than ever since the election, the Democratic Party’s organizing principle is calling Republicans racists.

Yet regardless of the facts, most liberals and their friends in the media continue to view Mr. Trump’s victory through a self-serving racial lens. Today, race is the Democratic Party’s organizing principle. Group identity is a doctrine and group grievances are to be nurtured and exploited politically no matter the damage to civil discourse.

Ugly identity politics meets the emotional needs of the Democrats’ main voting blocks and promotes the special interests of their progressive donor class. Democrat politicians at the state and county level are collateral damage.

You're trying to communicate with a person who thinks that the national pushback against PC/Identity Politics that just buried his party is about being able to tell dirty jokes at work.

What would you expect?

Except this had nothing to do with "PC at Work". It had to do with the fact that people were fed up with government that does nothing.

In fact, the percentages really didn't change that much. Trump got LESS of the White vote than Romney got and slightly more of the Hispanic and Black vote.

So by your logic, if there was "Pushback", then he'd have gotten 70 or 80 of the White vote, and not 58%, which puts him the same league as Bush in 04 and Romney in '12.

Math is clearly not your friend here, little Mackie.

What did happen is that we had two candidates no one really liked, and a media that fed a narrative they were both Just as bad

And a lot of voters who voted thinking there weren't consequences. Which is what happens when you treat Picking Leader of the Free World like picking "Winner of American Idol".

Well, for one thing, I'm not the crying bitch whining about this thread. For another thing, not agreeing with the way Democrats screwed up the government doesn't exempt me from working for it. I have even more right than you do to point out corruption and wrongdoing in the government because it's not only my job, it's my responsibility to do so.

To be fair, I agree if Obama could have run for a third term, he'd have beaten Trump. If Bernie had gotten the nomination, he'd have beaten Trump.

But the 22nd Amendment was still a pretty good idea. FDR never should have run for a fourth term when everyone around him knew he was dying. That left the US unprepared for the immediate aftermath of WWII.

People all over America cried visibly when Roosevelt died. The only other time I've seen very much of that is after Lee Harvey Oswald killed John Kennedy. I did not suggest anything by making the statement of fact.

FACTS

Roosevelt was elected four times

They changed the law so that no other could do that

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Again- same question- If that's the case, why didn't Trump get many more votes than Romney did?

He got 62.5 million votes compared to Romney's 61 million. His vote total only grew by 2% while the size of the electorate grew by 4.5%.

Frankly, the Democratic Party really hasn't changed, and if it has, it's become more centrist, not less.

Centrist? Hardly. The Dem Party has lurched far to the left. As Tim Ryan put it, it is now a coastal party catering to liberal elitists. They care more about what bathroom a man in a dress is allowed to use than communities losing jobs to Mexico. That's why they lost the industrial states who traditionally have been in their pocket.

I think the real problem is that BOTH Parties really lost this election. This was supposed to be a nice quiet fight between Jeb and Hillary playing for the Dynasties.

Instead you got a commie and a Nazi upsetting the apple carts.

I do actually get whey SOME people voted for Trump. The working class has been getting screwed since 2000, and neither party seems to care all that much.

People voted for Trump because while Hillary was having lavish fund raisers with Wall Street and Silicon Valley millionaires, Trump was on the ground shaking hands with blue collar workers in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Iowa. They don't care that he's rich. He took the time to pay attention and listen to them which is something the Clinton camp didn't do. The Rust Belt won him the election.

The thing is, we didn't lose jobs to Mexico, we lost them to automation. I've worked in manufacturing. Didn't see a single white guy out on that production floor, not once. They considered those jobs beneath them.

People voted for Trump because while Hillary was having lavish fund raisers with Wall Street and Silicon Valley millionaires, Trump was on the ground shaking hands with blue collar workers in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Iowa. They don't care that he's rich. He took the time to pay attention and listen to them which is something the Clinton camp didn't do. The Rust Belt won him the election.

No, an awful system and Russian hackers did that...

But those Rust Belt assholes are going to be really shocked when those jobs don't come back,

"Hey, Carrier only sent 1000 jobs to Mexico instead of 2000! And all we had to do is pay them a massive bribe!"

This by you is progress?

People all over America cried visibly when Roosevelt died. The only other time I've seen very much of that is after Lee Harvey Oswald killed John Kennedy. I did not suggest anything by making the statement of fact.

FACTS

Roosevelt was elected four times

They changed the law so that no other could do that

I think FDR was a great man. But running for a fourth term, WHEN HE KNEW HE WAS DYING (I guess I need to emphasize that again) was selfish and foolish. Particularly when his partners in war were Churchill and Stalin, neither of whom were trustworthy.

Wow, man, talk about being a sore winner.

Probably because after 8 years of whining about how you'd run things, you have no idea h ow to actually run things.

I know what you're doing. You're trying to turn every effective, intelligent, and informative thread into a pissing contest.

Epic fail.

Hey pisser, the OP established what this thread was going to be.

Now tell me, can Trump do in 2 years what took Bush 8? And we will have to wait until 2021 before anyone is elected to try to undo the damage.

I have a suggestion for you.......find gainful employment somewhere......preferably in another country because you seem to hate this one.

Who would hire JoeB131, and to do what? Last I looked, it was pretty much a prerequisite to gainful employment that one must be both capable of, and willing, to do productive, useful work.

I was born here 79 years ago....not pro american nor anti american. You flag wavers are blinded by shear stupidity.

When conservatives start trying to define what Americanism is for the rest of us it starts sounding like a fascist America that never was.

Only because they refuse to permit liberals to define Americanism.
