VDH: From DNC Irony to Parody
American Greatness ^ | 8-23-2020 | Victor Davis Hanson

The point is not what Democrats say against Donald Trump, or the irony of their rhetoric, but the very fact that their opposition somehow exempts them from the absurdities of their own paradoxes.

If nothing else, the architects of the 2020 Democratic Convention appeared to be ignorant of irony. Either that, or they know irony so well and cared so little that they wished to ram it down the throats of the few who watched the nightly taped speeches—as if to say, “We’re hypocrites and proud of it—and what are you going to do about it?”

It all reminded me of China’s now-defiant implicit response to its Wuhan lab virus, “Yeah it started here. And yeah we spread it. And yeah, we—the world’s premier racists and xenophobes—called you racists and xenophobes. And yeah, we let the coronavirus get loose, and blamed you for inventing it. So exactly what are you going to do about it?”

(Billy Jeff) Clinton, (Buraq) O'Bama, (Lieawatha) Warren, (Fredo's brother) Cuomo, etc. didn't escape VDH's irony meter. But.

Michelle Obama Takes the Cake

You know it is all good stuff and you want VDH's very dry humor. To start a new day on the very best.

This s how They ran their plantations.

This is how They beat their wives.

The victim must ABSOLUTELY submit.

They know no other way.

The point is not what you say against Trump or the irony of your own ridiculous rhetoric, but the very fact that you are against him and thus are extended exemption from all rules of honesty and the absurdities of your own paradoxes.

An excellent one-sentence summation of the left.
