Democrat or Six-Year-Old?

- "It's not fair!"
- "He has more than me!"
- "You hurt my feelings!"
- "He called me a name!"
- "But that's different when I do it!"
- "Pay attention to me!"
- "He's a bully!"
- "Boys are stupid!"
- "Boys are mean!"
- "It's not my fault!"
- "The rules are stupid!"
- "New rule!"
- "You're a dummy!"
- "Take care of me!"

Amazing, isn't it?

Blind to Their Blindness

I am definitely not a Trump guy. I don't hate him because he's upsetting the "natural order" of things. In fact, I rather like that aspect of his campaign. I just don't trust him. He is, it seems obvious to me, a sleazy salesman who will say whatever it takes to get you to sign on the dotted line. And when the product turns out to be a piece of shit, he will just ignore you and no longer take your phone calls.

The part of the Trump phenomenon that I just can't understand are his followers.

These are, mostly, people who have for the past eight years decried Barack Obama and his cult-of-personality, fanatical followers.

And yet, the Trumpians are the exact mirror image of Obama's fanatics.

Just as Obama's followers do/did, the Trumpians not only defend Trump no matter what, they do so by attacking anyone who disagrees with them in the lowest, most childish, viscious manner possible. Their sneering term, "Cuckservative", is one of the more tame examples. But all you have to do is go to the comments section of any post that criticizes Trump - no matter how mildly - and you will see comments that would be right at home on any not-so-bright middle school kid's Facebook page.

It is absolutely no different than when Obama was running for President. But these people don't seem to see it at all. And if you point it out to them, they use the same line that all children caught being hypocrites use: "But it's different when I do it!".

The Trumpians, like the Obamians before them, are a cult. Nothing more. It is all about the Dear Leader and his "vision" for the future. This vision is completely and totally devoid of specifics and can change daily with no cognitive dissonance suffered by the followers, but that doesn't matter one bit to them.

This movement gives them a feeling of belonging and a sense of being the underdog, fighting the good fight against the authority figures. Just like any middle school child.

I keep hearing this argument that Trump's followers come from all sorts of backgrounds, educational levels and income levels. But the one thing that those polls can't measure is their emotional maturity level.

Like the Leftists who were fanatical Obama cultists (and I suspect that many of them are the same people), The Trumpians are emotionally stunted children in adult bodies who have found someone to worship. Someone who will shock their elders while they sit back and smirk knowingly.

I can see why many people think that Trumpians are morons for not seeing the similarity between their worship of Trump and the former worshiping of Obama. The fact is, they're not all stupid. Most of them are just emotionally fucked up.

My Conspiracy Theory

Sometimes I wonder if the Elites know that it's about to all come crashing down and are just holding it together until they are sure that they have what they need to survive in comfort.

It would explain why they don't seem to be worried about what the voters think anymore. Not long ago they actually pretended to care about what citizens thought so that they'd vote them back into their comfortable lifestyles.

Now it seems that they know that, soon, there will be no consequences for their corruption and they're just grabbing everything that they can before the SHTF.

Our Consciences Are Clear

At the end of the day, when we are cleaning up the blood from the terrorist attacks, we will at least be able to say, "Well, at least we didn't offend any Muslims."

Faith No More

For many years, whenever someone would make what they believed was the profound statement, "There is no difference between the two parties", I would correct them and point out the obvious (to those who actually paid attention to politics) differences between the Democrat and Republican parties.

I quit correcting them a few years ago because, while there were still differences, they were differences only in methods, not ideology.

Now I can't even say that. Even their ideology is the same: Power at all costs! Integrity be damned!

Marxo Rubio using lies to frame Ted Cruz as a liar shows just how far gone the GOPE is. I could see it coming from Donald Trump who will say whatever is needed at that particular moment to get ahead.

What is sad is that I could also see Hillary doing the same thing.

When the Republican establishment's Golden Boy uses the same sleazy tactics as the most corrupt Democrat to attack his opponent, it just shows that all differences between the parties have vanished and that they will say and do whatever they believe is necessary to acquire power.

However, if Rubio or Trump end up being the nominee, I won't stay home on election day. I will go vote just so that I can write "Ted Cruz" in the slot for President of the United States of America.

I have no second choice.

Cue the Crickets...

A school shooting. Two girls dead. Almost no coverage by the media. Silence from the gun-grabbers. Odd, don't you think? The media and gun-grabbers will usually go into hysterics and fainting spells anytime anyone is shot anywhere near a school.

So, my first thought was, "Which Democrat victim-group member did the shooting?"

Sure enough. It was, apparently, the murder-suicide of a teenage lesbian and her girlfriend. Or perhaps a girl with a crush who was rebuffed.

I guess there's nothing in the story to confirm this, and maybe I'm wrong. But the silence from the usual loud-mouthed suspects suggests that they have had the same thought.

Democrat "Logic"

I really don't like Donald Trump. Based on his past statements and actions, I don't believe a word of what he's now saying. Nobody changes that drastically that quickly. He's a huckster and a con-man.

However, if I were a Democrat, I'd be obliged to vote for him because his skin color and genitalia are the same as mine.

You really have to be a moron to be a Democrat.

But That's Different!

Marco Rubio: Obama is making these huge changes to our country. He's transforming our country. He is destroying the very basis of our country by making these huge changes. He's destroying the middle class with all of his transformations.

Oh...and we should legalize 20 million illegal criminals who have snuck into the country and are stealing jobs from Americans.

Putz!

Ignorance is Bliss

Apparently all of the black Americans who worship Allah have no idea that it was Muslims who sold their ancestors into slavery.

I'm sure that they believe the "Roots" version, where white Europeans were chasing their ancestors through the African bush.

Sadly, if you told them the truth, they'd refuse to believe you. They prefer to remain ignorant.

Same Difference

Islam is a political movement posing as a religion.

Leftism is a religion posing as a political movement.

Do It Yourself Deportation

I keep hearing Democrats and Republicans saying that we can't "round up" 15 million illegal aliens and deport them.

Has it never occurred to them that we don't have to round them up? We just do what other countries do: tell the illegals that they have 30 days to get out of our country or they're going to prison when they're caught. They have, after all, broken the law.

Then begin construction of a massive prison somewhere in the desert. We could at least use some of the massive land holding of the Federal government for a useful purpose for once. We wouldn't even need to really build it. How many of these illegals do you think would risk prison to stay here?

And, when Mexico starts whining, which it inevitably will, tell them that if they refuse entry to their own citizens, it is grounds for war. We have tolerated their invasion force for far too long, and it ends now.

They will, of course, appeal to the UN, but who cares? It's about time that we kick them out of our country, too. What are they going to do? Invade us militarily? They can't field an army that is capable of anything other than selling kids into prostitution the way it is. If we withdraw our funding from them, they are finished. And there are too many people making too much money off of the UN for them to let that happen.

I'm not naive enough to think that this will ever happen. Our rulers in the Democrat and Republican parties would be horrified by the thought.

My point is that every time that they say that we can't "round up" all of these illegals, that they are knowingly lying to you. They know full well that it wouldn't require rounding up any illegals other than the one who are stupid enough to stay.

It can be done. Your rulers just don't want it to be done.

I Have Met The Enemy...

Some of the things that Republican establishment types have said about Trump supporters:

• Xenophobic
• Anti-Semitic
• Identity politics for white people
• Low-information voters
• Anti-immigration fanatics
• Archie Bunker types
• Outright racists
• Ill-informed and ungrammatical
• Genteel quasi-racists
• Disgruntled

Funny, but these are the same words that the Left uses to describe those on the Right.

When you're using the same words as your "enemy" to describe a group of people, perhaps you should realize that you have become your "enemy".

They Just Don't Get It

All of those GOPE pundits who are so terrified of Donald Trump that they're lashing out at his "supporters"as a bunch of low-information hicks and morons just don't get it.

We don't exactly support Trump - at least not in the usual way. While we agree with much of what he's saying, we're not dumb enough to believe that it's much more than lip-service. Saying what he needs to say for the nomination. No different than any other politician.

No, for us who are loving the spectacle of Boehner and McConnell and the rest of the GOPE flailing around in a panic over Trump, our attitude can be best explained as such:

Donal Trump is our way of saying, "Fuck off!" to the GOPE.

The Level of Incompetence is Mind-boggling

I had had enough of the Republican Party as a whole more than two years ago. I wasn't alone, and many had given up on the GOP well before I had.

And now Frank Luntz, GOP pollster extraordinaire, is shocked...shocked!...at the level of animus towards the Republican party by their own, supposed, base!

I've never been involved in one of his polls but, apparently, the basic question, "What do you think of the GOP?" was never one of the questions. Because I - and millions like me - would have been happy to tell the pollsters that our opinion of the Republican Party was only very slightly higher than our opinion of the Democrat Party.

These GOP consultants are very well paid to gauge the mood of the country - and the mood of those in their very own party. And they failed. Not only did they fail, but they are years behind the curve!

These "professionals" had absolutely no idea that their entire base was in revolt! Their. Entire. Base. And they didn't even know it! That is a breathtaking level of incompetence. That is beyond Dilbertland.

The GOPE are so insulated from reality by their Rasputin-like consultants that they actually believe that they're doing what their base wants. They are like the classic, fictional King who is placed under a spell and is having destructive suggestions whispered in his ear by his "advisor".

This may, finally, scare them enough to change their tune. If so, expect the "fail theater" to be ramped up to 11. But it will be meaningless, because their paymasters will not let them do the right thing. Expect it to get noisy, but it will truly be a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Least of all, real change.

Gotta Love It

Consider This

Once there was a loud, brash, egotistical celebrity who decided that he would run for the highest office in the land. He said outrageous things, attacked the current political system and didn't care what anyone thought of him. He rallied the people who were sick of the business-as-usual, "my friend across the aisle", bland, polite politics.

For their part, most political pundits wrote him off as a joke, declaring that he couldn't possibly win. He was attacked from both the Left and the Right. His supporters were constantly disparaged as moronic rubes who weren't sophisticated enough to understand the mystical inner workings of politics.

His name was Jesse Ventura...and he won.

His administration as Governor of Minnesota was a disaster. He was constantly attacked by both Republicans and Democrats and he took every attack very personally, thus making policy to hurt his opponents rather than for any good it would do for the state. It was a three-way war that lasted for six years.

I suspect that Donald Trump's administration would be similar.

I'm not bashing Trump here. He's not my guy, but it's fun watching him poke the Democrat and Republican elitists through the bars of their cages with a sharp stick. If only one of the other Republican candidates would get the hint: "That is what we are looking for! Do that! You don't even have to be a complete asshole about it like Trump is!  Just quit pulling punches and speak the damned truth instead of worrying about who you're going to offend! The people who are offended would never vote for you anyway!"

So far, the only person that I see who would be capable of this would be Ted Cruz. He is my guy, and I'd vote for him in a heartbeat. Faster, if he completely took the gloves off against the elitists in both parties.

I witnessed what happens when you elect a thin-skinned, emotionally childish person to the Executive office. It ain't pretty. Trump isn't the answer, but I admire him for doing what he's doing.

Racism Is Everywhere!

Noting that the lines in the parking lot outside of the Social Justice Studies building were white, members of #BlackLivesMatter demanded that the lines be painted black.

The New Democrat Man

For the second time, Bernie Sanders has had a campaign rally hijacked by the thugs of Black Lives Matter (In Certain Circumstances).

He stood meekly in the background and let them completely take over. At one point he apparently tried to walk back to the podium but was blocked, so he immediately turned around and went back to silently standing in the background.

This wasn't some large group of "scary" Black Panthers. This was three or four loudmouthed ingrates who managed to take over the rally of a "man" who wants to be the most powerful man in the world! 

And, judging from the pictures, they were the only black people there.

My first thought was, "Bad campaign move. Nobody's going to want to vote for someone this wimpy."

And then it occurred to me that this is exactly the kind of "man" that the new Democrat Party is likely to vote for. To them, a pussy like this is their ideal man. Terrified of offending anyone - except Conservatives.

Be proud, Democrats. Be proud.

That's Not Immigration

When 1/4 of a country's population crosses your border illegally, that is not "immigration", legal or illegal.

That, my friends, is called an invasion! And the leaders of both parties are actually thrilled that we are being invaded.

To which I say, to both parties, a hearty "Fuck you, you traitorous pieces of shit!".

Unless the GOP nominates Ted Cruz - and they will fight that tooth and nail - for President, they will not get my vote. After all, what difference, at this point, does it make if Hillary (or whomever) wins? We've seen what happens when we give the GOP power: nothing! Ted Cruz was right: the Senate is being run today just as it was when Harry Reid was running it. Worse, McConnell is using Reid's tactics against fellow Republicans! At least the Democrats were using these scumbag tactics against the other party. That shows that the Democrat Communists actually have more integrity than the GOP!

Did I mention, "Fuck you!" GOP?

How Dare You, Sir!

How dare Ted Cruz call out the liar Mitch McConnell for lying! How dare Cruz - in public, yet! - expose the fact that McConnell lied to right to his face!

In real life (as opposed to Washington DC), calling someone who lies to you a liar isn't controversial. And the one who points out the lie isn't the one who is publicly shamed and attacked.

The GOP elitists are now no different than the Democrat Marxists in that they completely agree that the end justifies the means and that lying is a perfectly acceptable way to get what you want. You know: the same way a six-year-old thinks.

We need Ted Cruz for President. Give until you're living under a bridge.
