That particular one may have been removed, for one reason or another. But I’m sure the same is there under a different title and link.

I agree with you except I would not get complacent about the Nov election. Ignore the polls no matter what they say and vote like it’s a neck-and-neck race.

...the Democrats will be trounced in November and will thereafter abandon the political process. They will take it to the streets and focus on violence as a political weapon.

I've been saying the same thing for months.

They've been getting nuttier and more unhinged by the day. They're doing that, because they're losing on every front. The more the system works as its designed to, the more they see the progressive 'gains' of the last few generations being reversed. To the left, this is quite literally the destruction of the country.

Never mind that every brick of their leftist construction is a bastardization of the blueprint laid down by the Founding Generation. Subverting our culture and our Constitution are absolute necessities to achieving their Communist goals.

The American political process was never more than a means to an end for them. If they could achieve the same ends through violent revolution, they would have started shooting long ago.

The aftermath of the midterm elections will likely cause some of them to become just that desperate.

"Reminds me of the NeverTrump idiots on our side."

reminds me of people who refused to help Mitt Romney defeat Barack Obama.

There was never any significant daylight between those two.

Romney's track record as a politician would make any progressive Democrat blush with pride. He's the grandfather of Obamacare, and as Governor of Massachusetts, signed every piece of heinous liberal legislation that crossed his desk.

Had he been elected president, he would have decimated the conservative cause, and would likely have ushered in an era of Democrat dominance that would now be overturning the last remaining bulwarks of our constitutional form of government.

Yes, it was tough enduring Obama's second term, but look at what we got for holding strong: Trump.

I guess we all died a little bit in that damn election ...

“...they will have no idea what else to do, so they will just break things.”

I think you’re right. They’re ginned up on doing some kind of revolution. Been getting pumped up for it for many years, with no outlet yet. So they’re just hanging on their emotions, getting frustrated and angrier...
