When Will the Insanity End?

[Invisibleflash]

The mindless opposition to anything President Trump says or does has reached a level which can only be described in mental health terms. Has there previously been in our nation's recent political history a comparable situation wherein one political party instantly reverses its own policies just because a President of the other party acts in accordance with them?

Whatever President Trump is for, the Democrats are immediately against, whether it be stopping illegal entry into the US, improving trade agreements with other countries, or pursuing peace negotiations. I do not recall this being the case with other Presidents, even when they were reviled by the other party. For example, Republicans generally considered President Clinton to be a scumbag, but that did not prevent their cooperation on economic matters. And their opposition to many Obama/Biden policies were substantive rather than personal. Even the Democrats' opposition to President Trump during his first term was focused more on removing him from office rather that disagreement with his specific policies.

This time around, the opposition to Trump's policies seems psychotic in nature. No matter what beneficial results his policies have achieved, the Democrats immediately reject them. As a result, they have adopted irrational policies that illegal entry into the US is good, that a growing economy is bad, and that international peace negotiations are to be avoided at all costs.

When will this insanity end?

Bub, there can never be a 'coming together' or 'meeting of the minds' in this day and age. Look at these examples to show how a dem or rep win may go...

Ban abortion or no restriction abortion.

Ban guns or don't ban guns.

Open borders or closed borders.

Socialism or capitalism.

Transqueer your kindergarteners or don't transqueer your kindergarteners.

Kid friendly drag shows or no drag shows for kids.

Defund the police and decrease law and order or increase the police and law and order.

Promote homosexuality or don't promote homosexuality.

Legalize all drugs or don't legalize drugs.

Legalize prostitution or don't legalize prostitution. ...and on and on.

In the old days, both parties were not that far apart, bub. Both parties had the same foundational beliefs, but not anymore. That was the era of Tip O'Neill dems, bub. We are in the era of commie dems now. Losing an election was not life or death back then. Nowadays, the 2 parties are polar opposites and losing an election can mean life or death.

I’m afraid it won’t end. The democrat party, “The Party of Hate and Retrogression”, has become a shared pathology. As noted, the successes of President Trump has made them angry and violent. They are literally waging a jihad, a religious war, against Trump and the American people. They are only getting angrier and more unhinged as President Trump slays their sacred cows of worship of criminal illegals and uncontrolled spending.

 

[gipper]

But with Trump,the media has become more brazen with their bias and they encourage and shill for The Left.

And because of the medias reaction to Trump, do you support him?

Sorry but most of the lack of compromise comes from the left these days.

Man, you should have seen the epic BDS on January 6, 2001!

Yep. And the lack of compromise on the left stems from their unyielding position on promotion of open borders, uncontrolled spending, allowance for crimes by their imported illegals and their revulsion for law, order and the founding principles of the Constitution.

This is how both parties are now. This is how politics is now.

I think most honest people know that.

I grow tired of your endless rants against Trump, but when someone makes a valid point about the corruption and hypocrisy of the DNC, you alternate to how both parties are equally bad, only to make another TDS thread about Trump.

How about everyone else?

You don't get mad at a dog for pissing on a fire hydrant, it's just being a dog.

Or when the dog pukes on the ground, only to eat it again.

Valid point.

Man, you should have seen the epic BDS on January 6, 2001!

You were flailing your Pom Poms as your blm, antifa heroes were burning city blocks during the Pacific Northwest riots.

You didn’t follow your script. You’re required to use the retarded insurrection™ slogan with any mention of Jan. 6.

Read your script, Bunky.

I've never said "both parties are equally bad". Not once. Not ever. Never. So you're lying.

Right now, Trumpism (the cult, not the individual) is an even bigger concern of mine than the Left's weaponization of PC/Identity Politics.

That's how it is. If you don't like that, too bad.

Psychotic. Demonic. Or just blind, ruthless political ambition with no purpose for that other than obtaining total power for themselves to use for whatever personal purposes they may decide.

They justify it because Trump uses strong/'vulgar' language while completely ignoring that coming from their own side.

They justify it because Trump is 'immoral' while claiming impeccable virtue and righteousness for themselves despite evidence to the contrary.

They justify it because Trump is a 'fascist' when nothing he has ever done fits that definition while the immediately previous administration was the closest thing to fascism this nation has ever known at least since we booted the British monarchy out of here.

I do think some sort of mental/emotional disconnect must be at play for so many to embrace the Democrat Party as it exists today.

 

[jwoodie]

I've never said "both parties are equally bad".

OK, tell us why the Democrats are worse than the GOP.

 

[Mac1958]

OK, tell us why the Democrats are worse than the GOP.

When did I say "worse"? I guess that just happened in your mind.

I have no use for either party. So which party is "worse" is irrelevant.

 

[BackAgain]

It’s how it’s been for decades, if not longer. It’s merely getting worse due to numbers of idiots stuck in the uniparty matrix.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

No, because I accept the binary nature of the system, and my guy is doing what he says he was going to do.

If you say so. I believe he's a weak, incompetent, entitled bumbling fool that doesn't understand conservatism or our constitution. Populism sucks.

"Conservatism"

Since you never take an actual position on anything, I just assume you are an SJW cosplaying dipshit.

You guys did the same or worse to both Obama and Biden. You right-wingers don't get special treatment, and the opposition to Trump is due to his violations of the Constitution. The insanity ends when Trump and MAGA end. You guys are the problem.

Trump is violating the Constitution. The media reports it. That's their job.

The racism, sexism, lack of ethics, lying, cheating, and stealing.
