The only person you are fooling is yourself.
The “ultra polarization” of politics can be laid directly in the laps of the progressive wing of the democrat party. The over the top “resist” movement is a perfect example. The unhinged msm is another prime example.
The ultra left wing meltdown that began on election night 2016 is all a product of the Democrats.
This is true. I’ve not seen anything like this in my life.
I was 8-9 years old the summers of 1968-1969, and the rage and rioting, while always inappropriate, was aimed at a far-away war, not a single person or party. In fact the youth were protesting the DEMOCRAT National Convention in Chicago, not the Republicans.
Today, after 8 years of Obama creating racial strife and fueling racial and economic division, I as a Republican and Trump supporter am being called a racist, Nazi, homophobe, and any other noun or adjective they can come up with to dehumanize me and my family.
The result is increased violence and anarchy on the streets, usually directed at conservatives and businesses, and the democratic leadership is fanning that flame, not tamping it down.
This violence will increase with time.
What the left doesn’t understand is that instead of trying to convince the other side of their positions, they are using shouting, violence, and mob rule to try to claim the high ground, unsuccessfully. They are pushing normal, moderate voters farther away from ever being able to be on the same page as a democrat, on ANY issue. In turn this is moving the independents and moderates away from that fringe, with only one way to go, and that’s toward the right.
