DEMOCRATS AND THE FUNNY THING THAT HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE MIDTERMS…


You know, I kinda almost feel sorry for the Democrats.  Almost.  And while I don’t want to get too cocky, they were all just so sure that this November’s midterm elections were going to be rushing in on some massive ‘blue wave’.  But a funny thing happened on the way to November.  Republicans are outperforming Democrats in fundraising and polls amid a week of defending both MS-13 and Hamas.

It was Nancy Pelosi who defended members of gang MS-13 on Thursday, claiming they are not “animals” at all, but are, instead, “God’s children.”  MS-13 has a reputation for all manner of heinous and violent behavior, like stabbing a 15-year-old boy to death, stabbing a man over a hundred times and decapitated him, and following the motto “kill, rape, control” to intimidate communities.  God’s Children?

Pelosi’s comment was in response to President Trump’s claim that the MS-13 members who enter the country illegally are “animals.”  The president stood his ground after Pelosi’s response, saying that the former speaker was “radical” at the Susan B. Anthony List gala Tuesday night.  He said, “She wants them to be treated with respect, as do other Democrats. That’s not going to be happening.”

Meanwhile it was Senator, and failed presidential candidate, Bernie Sanders who said the State of Israel was not justified in “firing on unarmed protesters” at the opening of the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem on May 14.  Of course, what Sanders failed to mention was that the “unarmed” protesters were part of and led by Hamas, the Palestinian terrorist group whose charter specifically calls for the killing of Jews.

And it was Bernie along with 12 other prominent, and very leftwing, Democrats, including Elizabeth Warren and Dianne Feinstein, proposed that the U.S. should resume funding the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) back on May 16. UNRWA money, as you may or may not know, helps fund Hamas-run schools that teach anti-Semitic propaganda to children.

Democrat leaders are a bunch of left-wing kooks, egged on by left-wing kooks in the left-wing media. They're making the same mistakes they made in the last four elections and are too ensconced in their little bubble to see any other way.  For whatever reason they remain truly convinced that far-left extremism is their ticket to victory.  This despite the fact that it hasn’t worked for them in the last eight years.

And what should cause them pause is that recently, and for the first time in 2018, we now find that the Republicans leading Democrats in a newly released Reuters midterm poll. And to add insult to injury the Democratic National Committee (DNC) is also taking a major hit in money raised.  It only managed to raise $7.9 million in April compared to the Republican National Committee taking in $13 million.

Now most rational individuals would likely tend to take a step back to maybe reevaluate their strategy going forward while there’s still time.  But while your average Democrat politician can be called many things, rational isn’t one of them.  There is a reason the symbol of their party is a jackass.  But then that’s the one thing I tend to like about them, because it tends to typically benefit my side.
