Ann Coulter: We, Too, Can Be a Failed Latin American State

Chavez didn't seize power in a military coup. There was no revolution. He wasn't imposed on Venezuelans by the C.I.A. He was the people's choice...  

Townhall   "The left's enthusiasm for Third World immigrants isn't only because they vote 8-2 for the Democrats. It's that Latin American peasants seem uniquely amenable to idiotic socialist schemes.
"You probably think it's beyond silliness for Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren to keep promising FREE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL! NO PREMIUMS! NO CO-PAYS! ILLEGAL ALIENS, TOO! EVERYBODY GETS A PONY!
"No one could be gullible enough to fall for that.
" I refer you to the economic powerhouse that is Latin America.
"Based on hundreds of years of indigenous people voting for politicians who made similar promises, Latin America has become the dream factory that it is today. That's why Tegucigalpa is practically a byword for "technological innovation," Santiago was the picture of calm sophistication this weekend, and Caracas is the ultimate in modern conveniences. "Perhaps you missed the article in last Saturday's New York Times on what socialism has done for the water system in Venezuela:
" 'The brick shack on the outskirts of Venezuela's capital is crowded with tubs, jugs and buckets. The water they hold must last the family of eight for a week -- but it's not enough for frequent washing or flushing, so the kitchen is filled with greasy pots and the house smells of stale urine.
" 'And none of the water is treated, making diarrhea and vomit a regular occurrence.
" 'We practically live in the bathroom,' said the mother of the family ... [Her daughter] sat nearby, pale and listless, recovering from her latest bout of diarrhea just one month away from childbirth."
"Democrats: We need some of that Latin American magic!
"Twenty years ago, 60 percent of Venezuelans had regular access to safe drinking water. Today, only 30 percent do. How did this happen?
"Answer: Poor Venezuelans voted for it. If we let them in, they'll vote for it here, too. (Except 20 percent, who will be patriotic Americans, i.e. Republicans.)" . . .

Democrat Party Now Selling Official Riot Supplies

Babylon Bee

"U.S.—The official web store of the Democratic Party announced a slew of new products Thursday geared toward helping left-leaning voters incite riots and mob people they disagree with in public places.

"The Democratic National Committee proudly announced the varied offerings, including pitchforks, medieval torches, throwing rocks, and more.

" 'When they go low, we mob them in the streets," said a DNC representative. "And now you can do that with official Democrat gear: high-quality pitchforks perfect for storming Republicans in restaurants, torches you can use to burn down conservatives' homes, and rocks to chuck at pretty much anyone to the right of you."

"Democrats promised a new selection of gear will be added to the shop every week, from homemade explosive devices to spears, and even a miniature trebuchet for launching yourself to tackle any Republican official you see enjoying a quiet meal.

" 'For all your civil discussion needs, make sure to check out the official Democrat store often," the rep added."

Satire, obviously. Obviously?

Beto's 15 minutes of fame are up

Judging by the voices cheering O'Rourke when he enters, I'd guess he is a big favorite of millennial females.

Washington Times  "In the program for an exhibition of his works at a museum in Stockholm in 1968, pop artist Andy Warhol famously predicted “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes.” The phrase “15 minutes of fame” has since come to describe anyone or anything that’s a short-lived blip on the pop culture or media radar.

"Fast-forward 50 years, and that “future” is now. The latest manifestation of Warhol’s prediction is one Robert F. “Beto” O’Rourke. The former Texas Democratic congressman’s 15 minutes of fame were up last November after he lost a U.S. Senate race to Republican Sen. Ted Cruz, but apparently, no one thought to tell him.
"Mr. O’Rourke didn’t need to find a real job after losing the Senate contest (in which he became a liberal media darling for nearly upsetting Mr. Cruz, whom they loathe) because he’s married to the daughter of a billionaire, so this “1 percenter” by marriage instead opted to fail upward.
"Despite serving three terms in the House that were at best undistinguished, Mr. O’Rourke surveyed a weak Democratic presidential field for 2020 and concluded that his closer-than-expected Senate contest entitled him to serious consideration for the party’s nomination for president." . . .

But it was a conservative website that had the best riposte for Mr. O’Rourke’s risible proposal. It has produced for sale a T-shirt that reads, “Nobody needs an AR-15? Nobody needs a whiny liberal either, yet here you are.” 

What if Senator Delicto had been our Secretary of State?

Yet if Romney was our only choice to run against Bernie or any other Democrat, I'd have no choice but to vote for him as was the case in 2016.

Senator Pierre Delecto ends the career of Senator Mitt Romney  . . . "The good news for non-quisling Republicans is that this should end the career of Pierre/Mitt to be the next John McCain as the go-to-guy whenever the Democrats and the media need a "Republican" to attack President Trump and conservatives.  Pierre/Mitt is now a joke, a buffoon.  The Dems and media may use Mitt, but nobody has any respect for him.  Who now cares what Mitt or Pierre says?

"It is difficult to believe that Mitt beat Newt Gingrich in the 2012 primaries, and we got stuck with him and Paul Ryan."

Leftist heroes of the Week? Hillary, Schiff, and Mitt

What does one say about Mitt Romney's descent into elitist madness?  A fake Twitter account!  It's as though he were in middle school.  Those of us who supported his bid for the presidency in 2012 are shocked and horrified by his childish attempt to take Trump down, to see him impeached.  What became of this man we all believed to be above reproach?  He wanted to be Trump's secretary of state.  That did not happen, so it seems he is bitter and has regressed to schoolyard bullying.  

The Meaning Behind Mitt Romney's Secret Twitter Name "Pierre Delecto"

. . . " 'Total speculation: it's a pun based on 'in pari delicto.' 'In pari' is replaced by 'Pierre' because Romney did his mission in France and speaks French, and 'delicto' (offense) is replaced with 'delecto' (delight)," one user wrote. "This explanation is also super dorky, and thus likely correct."

"We can definitely see it." . . .

Kamala Harris drops a few notches

CNN President Jeff Zucker Pushes Kamala Harris’ Demand to Take Down Trump’s Twitter Account  . . .  "Zucker on Harris: “She is Also Retooling Her Struggling Campaign.' ”

File under 'Dumb': Kamala Harris asserts she knows Rudy Giuliani committed crimes, but has no idea what  "Pearls, suits and heels aside, Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris may appear to be smart, but reality shows she's actually very dumb.

"How else to explain this one from softball political interviewer, Anderson Cooper of CNN?" . . .

‘I, I, I Don’t Know’: Anderson Cooper Stumps Kamala Harris With A Single, Simple Question  "CNN’s Anderson Cooper stumped Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris on Friday night when he asked her what specific laws President Donald Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani has broken." . . .      How ignorant must a Democrat be to get stumped by CNN?

Hillary: ‘I Probably Came Off As Too Serious’ In 2016 Election

Ah, so that was the reason.

Daily Caller  . . . "Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Wednesday that she “probably came off as too serious” during the 2016 election.

"Clinton joined daughter Chelsea Clinton on “The View” to discuss the book they co-authored, “The Book of Gutsy Women,” which was published Oct. 1. The book tells the stories of women who have inspired the Clinton women – “women with the courage to stand up to the status quo, ask hard questions, and get the job done.' ”

Democrats loved to use the word "lynching" yet Joe Biden apologizes when footage of him blasting 1998 Clinton impeachment as a 'partisan lynching' is unearthed

'So some day, if a Democrat becomes President and the Republicans win the House, even by a tiny margin, they can impeach the President, without due process or fairness or any legal rights. All Republicans must remember what they are witnessing here - a lynching. But we will WIN!' he tweeted. 

UK Daily Mail  "Joe Biden has apologized for using the word 'lynching' when describing the impeachment of President Bill Clinton in 1998.
"His apology comes after the former Vice President lambasted President Donald Trump for also using the exact same word as he described his current impeachment process.
" 'This wasn't the right word to use and I'm sorry about that,' Biden wrote in a tweet late on Tuesday night.

"Biden used the word during a 1998 CNN interview as he defended then President Clinton on-air. 

"But the former VP went on to imply that unlike him, the current President used the word to 'deliberately' evoke racist connotations.  

" 'Trump on the other hand chose his words deliberately today in his use of the word lynching and continues to stoke racial divides in this country daily,' Biden implored.

"Biden is now coming under fire for his double standard after he earlier described Donald Trump as 'despicable' for comparing the impeachment inquiry to 'a lynching'. " . . .

Video

Apparently Every Democrat In Existence Used The Term “Lynching” To Defend The Clintons  . . . "Of course, a little digging has turned up the reality that Democrats have used the term “lynch” in its various forms (lynch mob, lynching, etc.) many times. It’s pretty laughable just how prevalent their use of the word has been throughout the years. Worse, they did so specifically decrying impeachment, the very thing Trump is decrying. You can’t make this stuff up.

"Check it out." . . .

Flashback: Enjoy these videos of Democrats calling Bill Clinton’s impeachment a lynching  . . . "We know we’ve heard the word “lynching” before — both 2020 candidates Kamala Harris and Cory Booker called Jussie Smollet’s “assault” a modern-day lynching.

"But the Daily Caller has noted that the word had been used quite a bit during President Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial; have a look: . . ."

Dems form lynch mob, the GOP holds the rope

As for the Democrats, we will simply share an ancient piece of Southern wisdom handed down the generations: “Ain’t never been a lynch town amounted to nothin’.”  We’ll find the same is true of political parties.
