Just for the record, my parents were registered Democrats, and John Lewis was my Congressional representative growing up. However, my parents raised me with principles and values that are antithetical to the collection of delusional, deranged leftists who now own the political party once known as Democratic. This party has not just fully lurched to the Marxist left, but it is a party of mean girls and petulant, weak boys. It is a political party that is disintegrating into a toxic gas, which seemingly distorts one’s once functional brain and turns it into some jelly-like substance. It is a political gang more than anything else that seeks to punish and harm anyone who stands in its way..
Shutdown Tantrums
Let’s take, for example, the almost 45 days of leftists shutting down the federal government, and for what purpose? The insidious narrative was as far-ranging as the Alaskan frontier and as dry as the Sahara. First, it was about restoring Medicaid benefits. But to whom? It turns out that it was for illegal immigrants. Secondly, it became about restoring the $1.7T of government spending that was cut by the 2025 Budget Reconciliation Act, signed into law by President Trump. Yes, the party of mean girls and weak boys wanted to refund NPR and were willing to not pay our military troops. Lastly, and most incompetent, the reason became the furthering of Covid-era Obamacare subsidies, ya know, the Affordable Care Act, which is certainly not affordable. Even the epitome of a weak, petulant leftist boy, Hakeem Jeffries, tried to make the case that this was about solving the Republican healthcare crisis. You do know that Sir Winston Churchill asserted that socialism is the “creed of ignorance.”
