'You Magnificent Idiot': Swalwell Mercilessly Mocked After Deranged 'Wrecking Ball Promise' Post on New WH Ballroom

 "Democrats, of course, have made a spectacle of themselves in denouncing Trump’s planned ballroom. They have no good reason for their opposition. They simply hate the president."

Michael Schwarz  "Present-day psychologists and future historians could build careers by studying and explaining modern Democrats’ unhinged loathing of President Donald Trump.
"Meanwhile, we may settle for mocking those Democrats when they say and do things indistinguishable from parody.
"For instance, Sunday on the social media platform X, Jeff Blehar of National Review referred to Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell of California as “You magnificent idiot” because Swalwell, in demanding that the next Democratic presidential nominee must promise to take a “wrecking ball” to Trump’s ballroom, fulfilled Blehar’s half-joking prediction.
"Democrats, of course, have made a spectacle of themselves in denouncing Trump’s planned ballroom. They have no good reason for their opposition. They simply hate the president.
"Thus, on Friday in National Review, Blehar, having observed Democrats’ anti-Trump hyperbole for the last decade, predicted that before the ballroom hubbub subsides, “we shall see which Democrat is willing to escalate first, by publicly demanding a wrecking ball on Day One of the next Democratic administration.”
"Blehar meant that prediction as parody.
“ 'The voters are guaranteed to respond well to that,” he added.
"Indeed, only a gargantuan moron would urge Democrats to campaign on a ballroom-destruction platform. But Trump Derangement Syndrome has produced plenty such morons."  . . .
. . . "For one thing, Democrats hang their hopes on anti-Trump hatred because they offer nothing else. Having pledged to defend the indefensible, such as open borders and men in women’s sports, they cannot convince voters of the soundness of their policies, so instead they rely on demonizing Trump and his supporters, for instance, by slandering them as “Nazis.”
"On a deeper level, many Democrats have turned their TDS into an idol. Since they do not worship Jesus, they use their hatred to fill a spiritual void." . . .
"When TDS sufferers focus their wrath on inane things like ballrooms, however, we have nothing else to do but relentlessly mock them."  Full article here.
