Do the Democrats Have an Issue?
American Thinker.com ^ | August 17, 2019 | Steve Feinstein

Posted on 08/17/2019 7:35:15 AM PDT by Kaslin

The poor Democrats: As the Russia collusion/Mueller investigation issue disappeared into nothingness like so much skywriting wisping away into the winds, so too did the surefire issue with which the Dems thought the White House would automatically be theirs in 2020. The candidate himself was irrelevant, an afterthought. We have it in the bag, the Dems thought. It's just a matter of to which person we bestow the privilege of the presidency this time around. Let's pick a good one: a woman. No, a woman of color. No, a gay. No, a Hispanic. Perhaps an American Indian.

But that slam-dunk Russia issue is gone. Jerry Nadler and Adam Schiff are still flailing about, trying to collect their "undeniable" Russian collusion evidence and convince the rest of the Democratic caucus to initiate impeachment proceedings.

It looks doubtful that that's going to come to pass. So the "president's a crook" angle apparently is not going to deliver a greased downhill slide into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue for the Democrats. It appears — at this juncture, at least — that the Democrats will actually have to come up with a convincing policy platform in order to win the White House. They'll have to identify substantive issues of actual importance and persuade enough undecideds that the Democratic Party will improve their lives and make the country safer and more prosperous.

What are their issues? What are the candidates putting forth thus far? Does any of them seem like a game-changer, the lynchpin to electoral victory?

Their issue is “We Hate White People. Vote For us.”

Remember the feel when 0bama won his re-election? Well, multiply that by the level of delusion of the Rats. They will be absolute lemmings.

A foolproof plan and an airtight alibi,
Real simulated Indian jewelry!

A year’s supply of antibiotics,
a personally autographed picture of Randy Mantooth
and Bob Dylan’s new unlisted phone number,
A beautifully restored 3rd Reich swizzle stick,
Rosemary’s baby!
A dream date in kneepads with Paul Williams
A new Matador
A new mastadon
A Maverick
A Mustang
A Montego
A Merc Montclair
A Mark IV
A meteor
A Mercedes
An MG
Or a Malibu?

Or how about a McCulloch chainsaw?

Dem have a huge issue. A mental health issue. Everyone else has a problem. Not enough sanitariums to house the dems.

They don’t just have issues. They have bound volumes of issues.

The things that the dems say the believe and are running one ought to be enough to get them committed to a mental institution. Killing unborn children is good to them. Removing nation borders is also okay. Freeing violent criminals to prevent deportation is awesome to them. Taking the ability of a citizen to defend their self is obviously preferred by dems because resisting might result hurting a bad guy. America first is evil to them. Don’t get me started on climate change. .

...the Green new Deal, open borders and the decriminalization of illegal entry into the country, free health care for illegal aliens. LGBTQ issues taken to bizarre extremes, such as males being allowed to unfairly compete as females in sports and men who "identify as women" being allowed in women's and girls' locker rooms and bathrooms. Such is the Democratic platform for 2020. Nothing the Democrats are proposing so far is grounded in even the slimmest notion of feasibility or reality.

I'm guessing they'll run on extreme voter fraud with black communities in the Midwest voting more people than live in the precinct...

They have nothing....no candidate....no issue...only warnings that they’re going to undo the President’s Tax cuts, take away your guns, and just scr** America to the nth.

They may be the “poor” Democrats, but they control every facet of information in this Country.

Half the Population agrees with some or all of their Lunacy.

Don’t discount them for a millisecond. They could easily be running the entire Federal Government in January of 2021.

Hate trump is their sole issue. It’s been that way since he rode down the escalator in June 2015.

I don’t get that emotionally involved with elections. I find it weird that liberals fall into a deep depression when they lose. I was surprised that we lost in 2012 but got up for work the next day like any other. I didn’t shed a tear, go protest, or anything. So bazaar how liberals act.

There's only ONE thing the Left and the Dems stand for: MORE GOVERNMENT. That's all.

The Left is driven by the spirit of antichrist and the Dems are party of Global Totalitarian Government which which can and will be easily translated into Worldwide Islamic Supremacy - coming soon to your neighborhood (but not for a few decades yet).

( not until the commie Nazi islsmonazis are cleaned out of the D party machine and sent to Guantanamo. And I bet not even pdjt has the Cajones to do it!)
