The Real Reason They Hate Trump

WSJ  "Every big U.S. election is interesting, but the coming midterms are fascinating for a reason most commentators forget to mention: The Democrats have no issues. The economy is booming and America’s international position is strong. In foreign affairs, the U.S. has remembered in the nick of time what Machiavelli advised princes five centuries ago: Don’t seek to be loved, seek to be feared.

"The contrast with the Obama years must be painful for any honest leftist. For future generations, the Kavanaugh fight will stand as a marker of the Democratic Party’s intellectual bankruptcy, the flashing red light on the dashboard that says “Empty.” The left is beaten.

"This has happened before, in the 1980s and ’90s and early 2000s, but then the financial crisis arrived to save liberalism from certain destruction. Today leftists pray that Robert Mueller will put on his Superman outfit and save them again.

"For now, though, the left’s only issue is “We hate Trump.” This is an instructive hatred, because what the left hates about Donald Trump is precisely what it hates about America. The implications are important, and painful.

"Not that every leftist hates America. But the leftists I know do hate Mr. Trump’s vulgarity, his unwillingness to walk away from a fight, his bluntness, his certainty that America is exceptional, his mistrust of intellectuals, his love of simple ideas that work, and his refusal to believe that men and women are interchangeable. Worst of all, he has no ideology except getting the job done. His goals are to do the task before him, not be pushed around, and otherwise to enjoy life. In short, he is a typical American—except exaggerated, because he has no constraints to cramp his style except the ones he himself invents." . . .

If only this President didn't praise violence against protestors and would honestly repent of his vicious remarks such as "horse face" and his disrespect toward people like Carly Fiorina. We need Mr. Trump to protect us from Waters, Harris, Hillary and so many others from the liberal sewer, but Trump's words can pull the rug out from under our feet. TD

Martha McSally vs the Arizona Water chemicals that spawned Sinema, Flake, and John McCain

Democrat Sinema..................................................Republican McSally

 Don Surber "Days before he left the White House, Clinton left George Walker Bush a new EPA regulation aimed at costing water users millions if not billions of dollars. Never mind that the water standard had been in place for more than a half century. Never mind that Clinton had eight years to impose this standard. 
"Obama tried to do the same to President Donald John Trump.
Clinton's last-minute dig worked.
"Obama's didn't."
Thus began all that happened here: 

Progressives question Kyrsten Sinema's values in Senate race: 'What does she stand for?'  "Sinema is seen by many as Democrats' best hope in three decades to pick up an Arizona U.S. Senate seat in the Nov. 6 general election because she is well-funded and because of a political landscape that is deemed hostile to the GOP."
. . . 
A three-term congresswoman from Phoenix, Sinema has distanced herself from Pelosi, the former House speaker who has been villainized by the Republican base, and instead is projecting the image of a politician in search of solutions, not partisan poses.
"At meet-and-greets, in television ads and in phone calls to potential donors, Sinema is introducing herself to a statewide electorate that may be unfamiliar with her earlier days as a Green Party activist and later, progressive Democrat.
"Her Senate campaign is built around the script that she is an independent politician who is beholden to no one and will work with “literally anyone” to do good for Arizona.
"In an election that, from a Democratic voter perspective is a referendum on Trump, Sinema is testing a path that is less about denying the president and congressional Republicans victory and is more about overcoming partisan differences to solve major problems confronting a deeply partisan Congress.
"She has outraised her Republican rivals and is spending millions of dollars to reach far beyond the angry Democratic voters who want a candidate who will use his or her vote to block Republicans agenda.
"In doing so, Sinema has alienated base voters who say she has strayed too far from the values they believe in.

"It should be noted that, so far as The Western Journal has been able to determine, the only media outlet to have uncovered this email is the Reagan Battalion, so its contents are uncorroborated and should therefore be taken with a grain of salt. However, both The Daily Wire and the Washington Free Beacon have written about the email, apparently considering it authentic."

Now is not the time for focus-grouped messages, said Roda Hajo, 33, a left-leaning Democrat who attended the Pelosi event with her wife. . . . 
Democratic nominee for Senate Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona may have even stranger beliefs than we thought.

The Liberal Mob Must Be Stopped in November

Derek Hunter

. . . 'Even though our economy is booming, and there are more jobs than people looking for work, those jobs aren’t for people illiterate in their native tongue, let alone unable to communicate in our language. But Democrats have embraced this lie that somehow tens of millions of illegal aliens running up massive unpaid medical bills and whose children cost a fortune to educate are the key to economic growth. 

"As far as Americans being the victims of crimes committed by these illegal aliens, 100 percent of those crimes would be prevented if the perpetrators weren’t in the country in the first place. Every murder, rape, robbery, and assault would not have occurred if our border were secure and we deported people here illegally. That means liberals are perfectly fine with Americans being victims of those crimes because they think their identity politics gambit will bring them more votes than the indifference toward citizens costs them. Again, sick. 

"Speaking of sick, another example of a Democrat attempting to play identity politics was California Congressman and media darling (and leaky source) Adam Schiff. This pile of human garbage accused New Jersey Congressman Tom MacArthur of saying “his Korean American opponent is 'not one of us.’” The only problem is it was a lie, MacArthur never said that. Moreover, MacArthur has 2 adopted children from South Korea. Schiff was calling his colleague a racist against Koreans, against his own children. What kind of a person does this? How disgusting. 

"MacArthur asked Schiff to apologize, and of course Schiff ignored it. Being a liberal means never having to say you’re sorry. 

"Democrats haven’t apologized for the body counts in Chicago, Baltimore, Detroit, or any of the other cities they’ve controlled for generations, why should being lying, racist piles of rotting rat excrement bother them? 

"The ends justify the means to the left, which is why they can’t be allowed back anywhere near power. 

"These are just a few examples of what they’ve done recently, stretch the timeline backwards further and they become too numerous to count. Every one of them done in pursuit of power. Maybe someday the Democratic Party will shift back to one that actually embraces American exceptionalism, or at least isn’t hostile to the ideals on which this country was founded. Until then, they must be defeated. Because if they’re willing to do these things, and much worse, to obtain power, just imagine what they’d do if they got it."

Which is the Hispanic/ Latino: O'Rourke or Cruz?

And with Cruz leading his Democratic challenger Beto O'Rourke handily in opinion polls, Avenatti appeared in recent weeks to be washing his hands of a political loser there.

Supporters lining up for blocks one day before big Trump-Cruz rally in Houston

Texan Files Class Action Lawsuit Against O'Rourke campaign For Unsolicited Text Messages  . . . "The lawsuit was started by Collin County resident Sameer Syeed, who said he received nine text messages from the campaign. But here's the problem: he never opted into receiving text message communications from the campaign. 

"Syeed tried calling the numbers he was receiving text messages from but he received an error or disconnected dial tones. which means the Beto campaign was using an automated system. He also tried responding to the text messages to opt out but he never received a response." . . .

How do Republicans beat a cult that has millions of dollars?

You can't turn to any TV channel and not see glowing tributes to Bobby Fran O'Rourke.
What did this cost for the video crew and the writers?

You know how a girl, when she really likes a boy, will nervously brush her hair back?
Check out the move of ABC reporter Paula Faris as she gushes to Beto O'Rourke: "you're a rock star!" When Beto demurs, Faris insists: "no, you really are!" . . .
"Faris did stop short of asking Beto to autograph her arm, but the adoration was unmistakable." . . .  Adoring video

Remember Robert Redford in "The Candidate", playing a young, handsome, chosen politician who was a cult favorite that won his election, becoming a senator. Suddenly it hits him: "What do I do now?"

Senator Cory Booker Accused of Sexual Assault by Gay Man

"We'll see how the #MeToo movement reacts over the next few days, but my guess is that they will soft peddle the accusation and Booker will skate on it."

PJ Media  "A gay man who describes himself as a liberal Democrat is accusing New Jersey Senator Cory Booker of sexually assaulting him in 2014. Booker is considered a leading contender for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020.
"The man, who wishes to remain anonymous for now, penned a lengthy open letter that was posted on Twitter. In the letter he describes the assault that occurred in a bathroom following a meeting at his workplace, where the two met.
"The letter goes into excruciating detail.

I stopped to use one of the building’s single-occupancy restrooms. Upon washing my hands prior to leaving, I hear knocking on the door. When it comes to these restrooms, it is customary to knock first in case someone is using it, even though there is an inner lock. When I opened the door, Mr. Booker was there. He smiled and very gregariously said, “Hey!” We engaged in some brief idle chitchat in the entryway and then he asked me to speak in private. What happened next, happened so fast that it was hard for me to comprehend what was going on. It was one of those surreal moments where what was happening was such a deviation and such a perversion of one’s natural daily routine that I hardly knew how to react. He pulled me into the bathroom, albeit not too forcefully, and slowly pushed me against the restroom wall. He said that “Being a hero was a serious turn-on.” He continued, “The Senate appreciates fine citizens like you. Especially this senator.” He then put his left hand on my groin, over my jeans, and began to rub. I seem to remember saying something like “What is happening?” It was a bit like having vertigo. He then used his other hand to grab my left hand with his right and pulled it over to touch him. At the same time, he disengaged from rubbing me and used his left hand to push me to my knees from my shoulder for what was clearly a move to have me perform oral sex on him. At that point, I pulled away quite violently and told him I had to go. I did not see him again before he left.

"The victim says he contacted journalist Ronan Farrow, the "father of the #MeToo movement," who requested a phone conversation but never got back to him after the victim gave Farrow his number." . . .  More...

Cory Booker accused of sexual assault ... by a man?  

"Sen. Spartacus Booker of New Jersey is shaping to be quite a piece of work.
After grandstanding through the Senate confirmation hearings about the evils of sexual harassment as he sat there in high-eyed judgment on the blameless Judge Brett Kavanaugh, calling himself 'Spartacus' for his feigned moral courage, he found himself exposed as a hypocrite as word of his 1992 first-person essay about how he sexually harassing a woman made its way back to print, in that Internet-is-forever reality.
Not much moral authority over Kavanaugh, pal.
Now it's gotten even worse: Some man has come out and said Booker sexually assaulted him, in 2014.

Will Hillary never go away?

Rich Terrell; the good Californian. From  the poem, "Antigonish"

Chance Hillary Will Run Again? 'It's Not Zero.'
. . . "Yet, others are literally telling her to go away. "Dear God, Hillary Clinton. Please, Just Go," wrote Liz Mair in The Daily Beast on Thursday. Clinton, Mair complained, keeps popping up on the political scene with her two cents "like a Halloween ghoul who keeps rising from the grave to terrorize the American public." In other words, she's doing Democrats zero favors." . . .

Springsteen really, really loves Hillary; really, really, really hates Donald Trump
. . . "When asked whether he’ll go out on the campaign trail for Clinton, he said he wasn’t sure, but if he were approached, he “would take it into consideration and see where it goes.” He cautioned that performers, although they get the crowds going, have a “limited impact.' ” . . .
