Dems v. Trump: commentaries

That’s what’s happened to the Democrats. The Iowa caucus disaster is one symptom. The failed impeachment of Trump another. The stable of unstable Democrat candidates yet another. Jonathan F. Keiler
Bumbling Biden and the Democrat Clown Show


After Three Years of Hate, the Dems Have Lost It  . . . "Often forgotten is Big Brother’s antagonist, Emmanuel Goldstein.  He is the subject of a daily “two minutes hate,” which is where the novel opens.  The “two minutes hate” is part of Oceania’s political regimen, required of all citizens. It’s not clear at all in the novel that Goldstein is real, or just an invention of regime propaganda, yet it doesn’t matter.  The two minutes hate is designed to deflect the population’s anger and fear away from the regime to this supposed enemy of the people.
"It’s a sick regime, which is the point of the story." . . .  
Jonathan F. Keiler

Trump is Moby Dick, the Democrats are Captain Ahab  
. . . "The experience traumatized Ahab. Even Moby Dick's color grated on Ahab's mind. To him, the color white symbolized nobility and goodness while the whale itself was the embodiment of evil. Hate took over Ahab, blotting out reason and common sense. When he sets out on his final voyage from Nantucket on the Pequod, making a profitable haul for the ship's owners was not his priority. killing Moby Dick and boiling his blubber into oil was. " . . .

The Facts About Trump That Are Deadly For Democrats
"The Democrats didn’t like President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address because he highlighted data, such as the strong economy and record employment under his watch, they’d rather voters didn’t know. But those points were just a start. There’s much more about Trump that his opponents want to hide from the public." . . .



While Democrats are duking it out, Trump is quietly breaking records
 But never forget Hillary's victory celebration in 2016. As Abraham Lincoln told a bragging general, "...the hen never cackles until she has laid her egg":

Trump Camp Dismisses Sanders, Homes In on Bloomberg  . . . "The damage, however, had already been done. On a day filled with speculative reporting before election results came in, one-two punches from Trump and Sanders at Bloomberg helped drive news coverage and the national conversation at the very moment the businessman’s candidacy was on the rise.
"By Tuesday night, CNN was running an op-ed arguing that Bloomberg’s caught-on-tape comments about stop-and-frisk should disqualify him from the nomination and Democratic fears were growing over their chance of botching the election and failing to force Trump from office." . . .
