And so our fiery national nightmare is over. For now.
But only a Pollyanna would think peace is about to break out across the bloody political and cultural battlefields. We are a long way from fixing what was shattered and retrieving what has been lost.
There were many causes and events on the long road that brought us to this low place, but a telling moment took place almost exactly two years ago. It was the final debate of the presidential campaign, held on Oct. 19, 2016.
Here is how The New York Times began its slanted coverage: “In a remarkable statement that seemed to cast doubt on American democracy, Donald J. Trump said Wednesday that he might not accept the results of next month’s election if he felt it was rigged against him — a stand that Hillary Clinton blasted as ‘horrifying.’
After noting that no modern president refused to accept election results, the paper quoted Clinton attacking Trump.
“Let’s be clear about what he is saying and what that means,” she said. “He is denigrating — he is talking down our democracy. And I am appalled that someone who is the nominee of one of our two major parties would take that position.”
She added, “That is not the way our democracy works.”
Fast forward to now, and it is the height of irony — and hypocrisy — that Clinton and her supporters, including the Times, still refuse to accept the election’s outcome. It started with her flimsy claims of Russian collusion and continues uninterrupted, with the character assassination campaign against Brett Kavanaugh the latest example.

Willing to destroy any part of government they cannot corrupt with partisanship, members of the self-declared resistance are tearing America apart because the election didn’t go their way...

Surprised? They always Telegraph their actions.
The Left: “No Justice and no Peace for you faschist NAZIs!”.
They insist democracy is valid only when they win.
In all other circumstances, its illegitimate. Of course.
What Clintonians are doing is "revenge politics". It is just as evil as the politics of personal destruction which they honed to a fine edge. They will continue as long as they have money from Soros and his ilk and from democrats led by Schumer and Pelosi.
Hillary et al are not fit to breathe American air
They have forfeited their right to call themselves Americans
Kavanaugh was accused by the Rats of blaming them for characterizing them as being motivated by “revenge politics.”
But its true. They never got over 2016 and have been plotting to get back for it ever since.
Arrest the B***H!
the he^& it is!!
We are only one SC justice and 2 senators shy of the capacity for the tyrant’s privilege- “conviction by accusation” -to prevail in the USA.
This element needs to be ground into the dust and prevented coming any where nearer to legislative and executive political office and judiciary than the county dog catcher.
We simply are too diverse a society to survive otherwise.
It will get kinetic fast otherwise.
And Hillary continues to steal oxygen.
Now that post is a keeper!
Hillary loves democracy......if we were a democracy, she would be President.
It’s a democratic Republic with the electoral college that she hates....
Sorry for being so technical - it’s my nature.....
I’m getting really tired of all of it. I know we have a compromised DOJ, but enough is enough. The Clintons and the rest of them need to be taken down for good, otherwise the positive growth and prosperity will be overshadowed forever. Somehow these people have to be held accountable. And fast. This includes Soros and his billions which is funding the crackpots. He must also be funding left wing media including CNN and MSNBC. How else are they surviving?? Hoping all the ducks are in a row for the takedown.
I believe Trump spooked them with his answer to that question. No so much as the top DNC leadership but the underlings who do the actual cheating.
"To say that you won't respect the results of the election.... That is a direct threat to our democracy. The peaceful transfer of power is one of the things that makes America, America. It is not a joke. Look, some people are sore losers, because , you know, they just gotta keep going."
Hillary Clinton 2016
"Hillary Clinton calls Trump a 'threat to democracy' during NC rally"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJDO4SO88X8
And at a different rally, she says essentially the same thing.
"That is a direct threat to our democracy. "
The very fact that she continues to breathe air that could be used by real people is a denigration of democracy.
What did Hillary do/say?
Sorry, my frustration with another thread’s vagueness spilled over.
Sorry again.
FRegards ....
It’s okay, sir. No offense taken.
