Democrats: A plague on the nation

By Patricia McCarthy

How as Americans do we explain the intransigence of the left when it comes to national security? 'Tis a mystery. These people, these Democrats in Congress, are among the most privileged persons on the planet. They have enjoyed, more than most, the blessings bequeathed by the Founders, the authors of the Constitution. Yet they are determined, like Obama, to transform us into something this nation was never meant to be: a land without borders. While all of them are on record supporting a border wall in the past, now that Donald Trump is president, they all oppose it with every fiber of their being. They know that it will work, and they cannot abide Trump having a win. These people – Schumer, Pelosi, Gutiérrez, etc. – are truly venal. Governor Brown has effectively destroyed California, now benighted by rampant homelessness and the crime that accompanies a population of illiterate, drug-addicted, gang-affiliated, criminally inclined persons adrift on our streets. And now another young officer has been killed by an illegal alien thanks to the left's obsession with protecting the throngs of migrants crossing the border into the U.S.

It should be obvious to every American by now that our progressive left does not have the best interest of Americans at heart. Quite the opposite. They loathe those of us who put Trump in the White House and are determined to punish us. They intend to raise our taxes to pay for the $100B illegal aliens cost us every year. They need open borders to import future voters; millions of illegals voted in the 2018 election thanks to motor voter bills and states' refusal to require voter ID. The Democrats know they cannot win without cheating. They cheated in 2016 and are still stunned that their carefully calculated strategy did not work – thus, the cover-up, AKA the Mueller investigation, of their many crimes committed over the Obama years, many at the direction of Hillary Clinton with Obama's knowledge and approval. Our once most revered institutions, the DOJ, the FBI, and the CIA, have been thoroughly corrupted. Mueller, a willing participant in that corruption, is up to his eyeballs in the cover-up.

Will any of these people at the DOJ, the FBI, and the CIA, ever be held accountable? To date, they have not been. The power they have within the Deep State is beyond formidable; it is seemingly absolute.

It appears that America has become a sort of medieval oligarchy. Trump, as the outsider he is, is a grave threat to all of those who believed they were in control in perpetuity. They are ready and willing to do anything, no matter how illegal or immoral, to depose him, to expel him from office.

The Democrats in office today, and those about to take the majority in the House, are anti-Americans. Of that you can be sure. They care about keeping our borders open to all comers more than they care about keeping Americans safe. They all supported a border wall when Clinton and Obama were in office. Now they hate the president more than they love the country. Of this there can be no doubt.

The Democrats hate Trump so much that they want the economy to crash. They are hoping for recession. Is the Fed on board with the left? It seems so since, that institution's raising the interest rate yet again is counterproductive to our thriving economy. It is the Fed that whipsaws Wall Street, is it not?

It appears that the entirety of the left – the media, the Deep State, Wall Street, and the Democratic Party – is working in concert to bring Trump down, no matter the consequences to the country. Meanwhile, the Republicans in the Congress, most but certainly not all, are as bendy as can be. With notable exceptions – Jim Jordan, Mark Meadows, Tom Cotton, Matt Gaetz, Louie Gohmert – they hate Trump, too. He has ruffled their feathers, their comfortable position as go-alongs-to-get-alongs in D.C. They have no real principles, no gumption, no fuel for a fight. They are cowards all, pajama boys. Paul Ryan is their poster boy.

The young policeman who died in California Christmas night will and should be a wake-up call for the Democrats. They are 100% responsible for the presence of such criminals, protected by ridiculous sanctuary policies in our cities. The media and the Democrats are in an uproar over the two migrant children who died at the hands of irresponsible parents who used them as a ticket to ride, yet they have nothing to say about the murder of the young policeman in Newman, Calif. He is, to them, a casualty of politics, of their grand design to obliterate conservatives from the public realm forever. They do not care about him, his widow, or his infant son. They were happy to contribute to the odious Christine Blasey Ford's GoFundMe page, but not one of them will contribute to a GoFundMe page for Ronil Singh's family. He is law enforcement, so they feel nothing.

The Democratic Party of today is an abomination. The assault on our constitutional republic began with Woodrow Wilson, and their long-range plan to overhaul what the Founders built is still operational. The left has nothing but contempt for ordinary Americans, especially those who voted for Trump.

Leftists are dangerous when challenged, like a pack of jackals dismembering its prey. They need to be defeated, indicted, arrested, tried, convicted, and imprisoned. They are a scourge on the nation as founded. They do not love this country; they seek to destroy all that was and is good within it.

Excellent article. No doubt about it, the Democrat party is the enemy of America.

Can we PLEASE get on with this part ! ! !

Oh, and please add EXECUTED !

Thank you.

Yeah, the Dems are a plague, but I don't think they are this omnipresent, omnipotent force that we are told by pundits. They have made many catastrophic mistakes and will continue to do so. They are a mess.

To me, the biggest problem is that the majority (and despite what you read, we are the majority still) refuses to vax the plague. We bicker over trivial things, chest pound over lost ground and forget who we should support.

I've said it before, Trump is truly the "Man in the Arena".

This is the key sentence. This is exactly why Trump is despised and attacked.

The Evil Trifecta of the mainstream media, Wall Street/corporations, and politicians all want Trump gone, even dead. They loved him when they didn't give him a chance in hell of winning the Presidency, but the minute when that became a possibility, they turned on him. And now that he is President, they will do anything to get rid of The Outsider. The one to upset the Apple Cart, the one who changed the status quo.

we've been told time and again that our 'fellow citizens' - the democrats and socialists and other miscellaneous leftists are not an enemy

I disagree

everything they do is exactly what an enemy would do if allowed

so why the distinction? call them what they are

I do--gladly. They must be challenged and destroyed.

Nothing a few short ropes & tall trees can’t fix

I respectfully disagree. Their opinions/ideology may run significantly counter to mine and their tactics have become increasingly offensive, but they remain my fellow Americans and thus (often infuriating) members of my tribe. Look for opportunities to find common ground with them, enlighten them, forgive them, and seek to bring them closer rather than banishing or destroying them.

You don't see progressive liberals as a dangerous threat to our way of life and have the patience to try and change their goals with polite rhetoric? No offence, but it may be time to come out of your cave and see the light.

Maybe,but unfortunately enough people vote for them that they remain a major threat to our form of government the founders envisioned. Remember they won control of the house last election.

If it walks like a duck......


Someone who actively seeks to destroy my country is an enemy, period.

Read Kurt Schlichter's "People's Republic" and others in the series to see what the left would become if it could. The Dem party of my youth is long gone. The internationalist left is in charge now and they don't give a damn about the America we love.

Have you been a registered Dem your whole life? I'm almost 60 and have always understood the evils of the American Democrat (meaning Communist/Socialist) ideology. Their real history has been overtly covered up the last 50 years, but occasionally their motives reveal themselves. Just trying to understand how someone can blindly follow a party with a history like that.

The problem with that line of thinking is that while my politics require nothing from them, their politics require force to take from me (& provide to them).

I want a free market, which forces no one to provide anything to anybody. If someone wants something, be it food, medical care, education, etc., they are free to go get whatever they want. The free market will adjust accordingly.

They want socialism/communism to force people to provide what some party apparatchik thinks is appropriate. I’m forced to provide healthcare, education, food, housing, among many other things, at the point of a gun. If I don’t provide all these things, men with guns come & take my shit & throw me in jail, at their behest.

Also, being a conservative, I don’t want to ban inanimate objects. But the GDC politics insist that I give up my guns, my insurance, my income, & my property so that I can provide for others, as much as their politicians insist, because again, they will send men with guns to enforce their ideas on me.

Freedom & a free market are incompatible with socialism. As the socialists become more bold, more insistent, & more pervasive, I become less agreeable. As both sides of the political spectrum become more polarized, a large rift is coming to this country.

Better dead than red.....

+1. At the end of the day they're still our neighbors. I see the word "Executed" above in another post. Really?

Show through action the Conservative approach is the best approach. They've never seen success or a good economy because of their policies.

How many leftists have you known that changed their minds and became conservative? Me, in my 71 years, none. Not one! I've given up even trying. It's like trying to knock a wall down by throwing eggs at it.

Democrats are not my neighbors.

They may have a physical presence in the same universe I draw air in - but that is where any common ground ends.

I respectfully disagree

this is the absolute WRONG answer

they are the enemy and have declared themselves as such

their is no middle or common ground

they are Americans in name only but their ideology places them far outside the real America

they are in the fact the enemy and they must be destroyed

I really believe there is no such thing as a good democrat - not now, not ever
