(Civil war?)


I think it’s already started but hasn’t gone bloody yet. Maybe this summer Soros will mobilize his stooges and attempt to shut down the country. Then it will go hot. IMO

We can only pray that people like this manage to take over the Democrat Party. They think that it will work like the Tea Party, where if only they can mount a popular movement that undermines their more moderate members, they will then emerge eight years later as the Tea Party and Trump have now. What they fail to realize is that they’ve been eating their own b.s. for too long, and America will reject them even worse if they go down that path.

The alternative must come from below – and certainly protests like the Women’s March are inspiring starts. Millions marched, many of whom had never attended a political protest before. “

Yes, the violent progressive movement must come from below. The lowest is what they seek and methinks a pussy march personifies that.

Can you imagine Harry Truman being around the Democrats of today?

Yes, I can. He'd have his boot so far up their collective nether cavities that you'd need the Jaws Of Life to remove it. I will note, however, that the first thing he did was to walk over to the State Department and fire the lot of them. Something sounds a little familiar about that lately...

They still don’t know why they lost.

Hey, that sounds racist to me (just kidding of course.)

What's not to love with a 27 year old neo-Marxist who grew up in Westchester, who hates the "old guard" Democrats for not being radical enough!

Like come on man, like give the guy a chance.

“The Women’s March [is an] inspiring start.” What? Disorganized, lame and totally useless.

Shh, Quiet, Guardian, we don’t want them to know.

Oh, never mind, the literate among them would never be able to pull it off anyway.

And when it does I have only one thing to say; front sight... concentrate on that front sight. ;)

Yep and the angry crotch hat march was supposed to be a HRC support rally but turned into an anti-Trump rally since he won. Most of those women were going to be there either way.

The left is about to devour one another, the last one standing can sit in the corner and cry.

If the last week has shown us anything, it’s that Donald Trump has power, but he doesn’t have much of a mandate yet.


Step one in solving a problem is asking the correct question. If they believe President Trump does not have a mandate, they will not be able to solve (their) problem.

This article is more a threat to the Democrat Leadership then it is to President Trump. If only the Democrat minority base coalition breaks apart, for good.

Golly. Someone isn't paying attention.

the Clinton establishment’s mix of socially inclusive rhetoric and neoliberal economics is a weak response to xenophobic populism.

He must be speaking of different Clintons than the ones who are/were on the national stage--all I recall is racially/ethnically/etc. divisive rhetoric. Divide and conquer has been the Democrat strategy for decades.

The "neoliberal economics" the author refers to is most likely the Republican economics that Clinton adopted when he lost the house and senate and chose to take the path of highest popularity rather than push the radical left agenda.

So apparently blind to the national vote, their answer is calling for MORE Marxist extremist views on all matters.

You’re out of power, you have no say. DUmmies.
