It’s sad, but apparently it generates funds for the party and, they suppose, will bring out voters. About a year from now they’ll realize they are not running against Trump for the next election and they’ll have to retool their campaign strategy. By the time they realize their largest electoral challenge is the DSA, not Trump or Republicans, they’ll already be behind the eight ball.

It’s nothing like 1976. As is my usual habit I cruise by Drudge, CNN, and MSnow, every morning. Drudge and MSNow are full out hate Trump and the US, CNN just slightly better. The leftists I follow are also in full voice today.

Almost 50% of our population is full of hate for Trump, conservatives, and even the country. They are embracing DSA (communists). While I’m glad I live in a red state, and Jax, despite the inner city, is full of vets, lots of Navy people here, I fear we are inching towards a violent confrontation. I see my home state of Colorado circling the drain. I won’t be around in the next 25 years, but I fear what my daughters and granddaughter, and grand nieces and nephews will be facing.

Wife bought some nice steaks for the grill tonight, then we hunker down in a bedroom with curtains drawn and music blasting as we try to keep our dogs from going nuts.
