Commentary
I’ve watched in dumbfounded amazement over the past few months as the Democrat nominees competing to take on Donald Trump next year for the White House have enthusiastically embraced one surefire electoral loser after another:
- Gun control/gun bans
- Third trimester abortion
- Open borders
- Free healthcare and college for illegals
- Gender madness
- Climate change hysteria
- Impeachment
- Endlessly talking about the supposed “White Supremacy Threat”
About that last one, #8:
You may have noticed over the past few weeks prominent Democrats and DNC media outlets suddenly began using the phrase ‘white supremacy’ frequently and especially when discussing President Donald Trump and his supporters.
After spending years carefully establishing that whatever the political Left in the United States deems to be ‘hate speech’ has no first amendment protections and can then be freely and liberally suppressed, they were always going to point at their political opposition in this country and label them “white supremacists” whose speech is always racist and therefore needs to be silenced.
This was always about winning elections by default after deplatforming their political opponents.
This is also an attempt to “freeze” traditional Democratic voters from crossing over to vote for Trump.
Such people are being told right now “If you are thinking about crossing over to vote for Trump in the next election, you are thinking about becoming one of them—one 0f those awful white supremacists! You can’t possibly be thinking about becoming one of those awful white supremacists, right?!”
Trump received just enough crossover votes in 2016 to win the crucial blue wall states. This allowed him to win the electoral college and the presidency while losing the popular vote.
Democrats appear to have written off all the former members of their party in the working class who have crossed over to join Trump’s base. The current dilemma they face is keeping Trump from peeling off any more defectors and convincing them to cross over and vote for him in 2020.
Much to the horror of the Democratic party leadership, Trump is currently making real overtures to blacks and other minorities whose votes the Democrats have taken for granted, and there are signs it’s working.
Trump is asking uncomfortable questions about places like Baltimore, questions that the Democratic power machines that have run these big urban cities for decades have no good answers to.
The biggest fear the Democrats have is that Trump will successfully convince Democrats to bolt across the aisle.
