The Democrat party seems troubled. When negotiating a curve at high speed, too tight a turn can shake up passengers, test the integrity of the carrying vehicle, and deliver everything into the pucker brush. Arguably, this is where the national Democratic Party is headed, if they don’t slow down, start thinking about where their public positions are leading, and reorient.
Take top issues – and unpack them. They do not align with seniors or average Americans. The question behind the question: What are national Democrats thinking? Why break-neck speed into 2020’s turn?
- Two Democrat Governors (New York and Virginia) have advocated late-term and at-birth abortion (in Virginia, outright killing of a child after birth, so long as the infant is “made comfortable”). The bill became law in New York and remains under serious discussion in Virginia. How can there be no national Democrat opposition to such a horrifying, unconscionable, and immoral act?
Across American history, in most countries of the world, in the conscience of most Americans, this is murder. Yet the liberal media buried the issue – diverting to other unseemly acts. Where is the American media on this? The notion that we would, as a nation, condone this is chilling.
- Congressional Democrats proposed a “Green New Deal,” that swiftly ends reliance on fossil fuels (of which the United States is the world’s top producer), seeks federal control of America’s energy sector (since they have done so well with health care), mandates to retrofit all buildings, ends modern agriculture, transportation, security, and capitalist norms such as pay for work (i.e. paying those “unwilling to work”), terminates air travel, and proposes other unworkable, nonsensical federal dictates. Where are national Democrat leaders? Where is the media?
While led by New York Democrat member of Congress Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), who has given herself the nom de guerre “AOC,” ala “FDR, JFK, MLK, in her personal war with traditional American values, she was oddly joined by a flood of Democrats. Really?
On closer examination, the bill looks like rewarmed Soviet doctrine, a bold socialist agenda that tips toward totalitarian control over production, forced redistribution of wealth, centralized decision-making, the antithesis of limited government, individual rights, state sovereignty, and private property control. The text gives a shiver. Where are Democrat voices of reason?
- Democrats in Congress push openly “Medicare for All” to end private and employer-covered health insurance for 150 million Americans – ala Bernie Sanders. Like the Green Deal, no price tag – or source of funding. The unmasked plan is simple: Usurp the private sector, states and individual rights and transfer control to the federal government. Soaking an invisible class of taxpayers (read: middle class) for unaccountable, unmanageable, and highly wasteful single -payer-system. Breathtaking is one word for this audacity. Ignorance – of history and economics – is another.
- Next, a raft of Democrat presidential nominees are diving to the left, each trying to out-radical their next-up-radical Democrat competitor, with one advancing legalizing marijuana nationally to “spread joy” (despite skyrocketing addiction and treatment costs, drugged driving and crime), another seeking to stop “white privilege” (while a colleague rescinds her “Native American” status), another wanting to take over the banking sector (despite a flying US economy), all advancing “open borders,” opposing border walls, arguing for “sanctuary cities,” ending ICE and DEA, none offering anything on the economy except higher taxes, more regulation and greater federal spending. Quiets one to silence.
- Last, one is stunned by the pivot away from these issues in the media, except to offer gloss – toward distraction of scandals. But even here, the Democratic Party seems to be stumbling. When the US Senate revealed this week that they have found no evidence of Trump Campaign collusion with Russia, media and Democrats argued the point.
Then, in Virginia, a sitting Democrat Governor is found to have been active in multiple “blackface” events confirmed by a graduate “yearbook,” side by side wearing a Ku Klux Klan hood. To be clear, the KKK killed people; they are not a joke. Yet media ignored that and turned to the “blackface,” not the clansman. On both, the Democrat governor gets a pass? Why?
Then add the Virginia Lieutenant Governor, credibly accused by two separate women of recent sexual assaults, rape and forced sodomy. The Democrat party allows the man to keep his job? Add a third high-ranking Democrat, the sitting Virginia Attorney General – a man commissioned by the people to enforce anti-discrimination laws – and he also confesses to wearing racial costumes that parody black Americans. Still the majority of Democrats are silent.
So, what is happening? The answer is simple: A national party is stumbling, moving far too fast to the radical left, losing any sense of self-awareness, alignment with seniors, average Americans, taxpayers and history – in a frantic, frenetic and ultimately self-destructive spasm of personal ambition, every member for themselves, no matter how absurd that posture looks to most of America.
They have convinced themselves that, despite the best economy in 50 years, lowest unemployment, strongest trade position and dollar, emphasis by President Trump on what Americans care about, from federal accountability and national security to rebalanced trade and the drug crisis, from individual liberty and free speech to free exercise of religion, they will win because they hate President Trump. Only they are again off track. Fully 76 percent of Americans liked President Trump’s State of the Union message, and the objective indicators are all favorable.
Maybe Speaker Pelosi, Majority Leader Schumer, radical pro-infanticide Democrats, pro-socialist voices, anti-liberty and failed accountability big spenders and limitless regulators should sit down and think about the future. They should think about what most Americans want, instead of careening around the corner into 2020 bullhorns blazing.
Most Americans appreciate “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” – not the opposite. That would be a fresh message, echoes from our past. The Democrat Party seems troubled. The question should be – as President Kennedy noted: What can you do for the country, not what can the country do for you. Simple, and time to remember.
WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO STOP THEM FROM WHAT THEY AR DOING TO THIS COUNTRY? THIS IS JUST RIGHT DOWN STUPID! WE NEED TO TAKE DOWN THE ENTIRE DEMOCRAT PARTY. EVERT DEMOCRAT NEEDS TO EITHER DENOUNCE THE PARTY OR THE SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH TREASON!! . WE FOUGHT THEM TO STOP THEM FROM KEEPING BLACK PEOPLE SLAVES………..DO WE NEED TO FIGHT TO STOP THEM FROM ENSLAVING THE WHOLE COUNTRY NOW????????????? WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO TO STOP THEM FROM DESTROYING EVERYONES FREEDOMS?
Like most dems, I am not very religious, but I will always be a patriotic Republican. To me religion/mythology is a bad “belief system” to put all one’s faith into. I will only honor science, which is true knowledge, facts and information that is proven to be true with real evidence that was learned through scientific research, many tests, and trials. Science isn’t perfect, but it is far more reliable than the “unprovable beliefs” of religion/mythology.
Americans can be moral, be spiritual, and love each other in a secular way without being part of any false, man-made religion/mythology.
Most Democrats are immoral, homoloving, leftiist socialists who do not love the United States of America nor the US Constitution. With Dems in charge America is doomed to fail; not only to become financially bankrupt, but also become morally, and spiritually bankrupt as well.
The democrats are the party of crazy people. There isn’t an ounce of sanity between any of them. Nothing they ever say is rooted in facts, They can’t stand facts. Who besides Joe Manchin isn’t to the left of Stalin? I’m not certain that any democrat voters even know who Stalin was. How on earth is Nancy Pelosi Speaker of the House again? Third in line for the presidency……unreal! She had a disastrous run of it the last time she “tried”. I don’t even want to get started on AOC. My 15 year old daughter has more common sense. This should cause serious concern for the future of our nation.
What Democratic Party is he talking about or referring to??? That Party died along the way side a long time ago, only to be taken up by “masqueraders” who want to look like Democrats but in fact are nothing but a bunch of demons, out to destroy everything this country stood for and believed in. They a talk a “good story’ to get everyone’s attention to believe in them, that they are the ones who can save us and our country and things will be hunky-dory, except for one thing………..they are all lies and are trying to deceive us so they can now shove down our throats their bombastic ideology. It is called socialism/ communism where our freedoms will be taken away from us…….look at Venezuela and at other countries today. That is the “new” Democratic Party today….they believe in everything that is detrimental to this country and its people, don’t seem to care to adhere to rules, regulations and laws, have no respect for our sitting President when in fact, they would rather have him taken out so one of their “own” can take up the leadership, have no respect for the US Constitution, which I understand, was “altred” some decades back, and where pedophilia was practically given free rein, abortion, and the killing of babies born at term for profit and cannibalism (in this country…yuck!!!(), human and child sex trafficking where many children have disappeared permanently, drug trafficking which accounts for so many deaths on a daily basis from over dose, now the churches, including the Catholic church are taking part in pedophilia too……….why all this, we ask? Because they all gave in to Satan who controls them and that is the current and new Democratic Party as we see it. They don’t want borders for our protection as trafficking (human and drug) is a huge money-maker for most of them…oh yes, this is done for power and money because they let greed get the better of them, they would rather support the illegals as they are the “new voters” for their party and if they want to get “rid” of someone, why not engage the services of the MS-13 gangsters to do their jobs for them?
That is how I describe the Democratic Party …the .old one died a long, long time ago, and what I just described above, is the new and present one………..,one that is a clear and present danger to ALL of us if we let them continue at the speed they are traveling today…….waiting for a huge crash once again…………..and perhaps we should let them travel on that rate of speed they are currently on.
By the way, the newcomers to Congress from the mid-term elections got their “start” by responding to a Casting Call to infiltrate Congress with socialist/communist types………..thus we are seeing so many trouble makers now who call themselves “politicians” such as AOC, TLAIB, OMAR …. the list was rather long. To me, they are no more politicians than the man on the moon is, but here they are, serving in Congress and already trying to shove their socialist ideology down our throats!! I watched the video and the participants were so proud of themselves at how fast they became politicians!!! Now we are beginning to know more about them. Be careful of the 2020 election as that group wants to lead the charge so “their kind” get elected!!!
They can get away with these atrocious attributes because many of the American people (their followers, mostly) NEVER hear the news stated like you have stated it here – as you said, it is ‘glossed-over’. The media is indeed the problem here for us – the dems are just using them to cover all this in a way that is appealing to people who don’t think for themselves. It is a miracle that there is so much support for the president when we have to search for true information. I thank God for you, AMAC, and the few other news outlets for us to know what is really going on!
Best article I’ve read by AMAC and I agree with all important points! Excellent job.
This is one of the best, most honest political articles I’ve read in recent memory. Thank you.
Visit Dick Morris’ website & view his video on the history of the Democratic party’s lurch left after major election defeats. We are witnessing a repeat of history. Who would vote for candidates that want a borderless, crime ridden country? It takes a lot to wake up the American public, hopefully the Dems finally showing their true colors will do the trick.
The DemonRats true plan is to destroy American values and turn us into a third-world country with lawlessness. The more chaos they have the better their evil plan to control and take down America and turn us into a communist regime. Taking God out of everything and Passing a murder bill to kill innocent life. Remove Planned Parenthood facilities and create centers that help pregnant women care for their babies. Take a look at Pastor Hagee’s Sanctuary of Hope for unwed mother’s and bring it forth nationwide to end abortion once and for all! AMEN!
Wonderful, thought provoking article. However, one additional point should be part of the discussion…it seems to us that in addition to having a personal agenda, these radical leftists have a very deliberate agenda of “overwhelming the system” to collapse our constitutional, democratic, freedom loving government, so they can build America into a socialist country! We urge everyone to read “Cloward-Piven Strategy” of 1966! It’s all there…from income “redistribution” to overwhelming the welfare systems! This is exactly why they want open borders as well as creating a new voter base! Keep fighting for our freedoms and constitutional form of government! GOD BLESS AMERICA!
NA-ZI, MARXISTS; NOT MUCH DIVERANCE. They all have similar verbiage . Youth are like the brown shirts of Hitler ERA. History will repeat, because they are not taught history. The Democrat party no longer exists——THEY HAVE SOLD THEIR SOULS! THEY HAVE FOR GOT THEIR OATH OF OFFICE AND ONLY FOOLS FOLLOW THEM AS SHEEP!
What happened to the Democrat party-they have begun to capitalize on their 40 years of taking over the education system in America-they have succeeded in creating a generation of mush heads who will accept any garbage they are fed without thinking(because they do not know HOW to think). The wildest idea is reasonable to them
While I deplore the Virginia governor and attorney general’s disrespect of black people by wearing blackface and standing next to a KKK hood-wearing person, I am much more dismayed by the governor’s embrace of infanticide. I believe the leftist media unearthed that photo to draw attention from the infanticide issue and most have ignored it altogether. I fear that the next thing will be “eldercide” the killing of those of us over the age of 75. One of the architects of Obamacare stated on national TV that if you’ve lived to age 75, that’s long enough. For those of you still voting Democrat, remember that!
The democrats were all born without brains!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What we are witnessing in our day is an equivalent to the story of Nebuchadnezzar, which underscores this point: when one knows the truth but in hubris rejects it, insanity surely follows. This lesson can also be stated in another way — opposition to God is demonic, bent only to destruction, as the “party” has surrendered its mental faculties to satanic control, all for the purposes of political control. Enslavement follows.
Socialism does not work in China or Russia; as a matter of fact socialism has never worked in any country that has embraced socialistic ideals. The liberal left has pulled the wool over the eyes of many young people today who know very little about history; “Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it” (George Santayana). The liberal left plays to youth’s emotions and not their intellect. Well my fellow Americans, it is time to take a stand for liberty; to protect and preserve our cherished freedoms, so bravely fought for over the centuries, by countless men and women who gave everything to advance the cause of liberty. We must be prepared to defend our Nation’s Constitution, history and American way of life. Liberty knows no color other than red, white and blue; let all Americans take a stand even if it means we lay our lives down for it.
The DNC Party of Francis the Talk’n Jackass, has now slipped so far left you wonder why they don’t just stop saying “we are socialist democrats” a oxymoron and declare themselves to be the America’s Communist Party aka the DNCommunist…..You cannot help but wonder with all the hate and intolerance coming from the left, the anti american rhetoric and now voiced antisemitism from the newly elected congressionals of the left, who, what and where is the monetary support coming from, what is the motive and the end game for such villainous acts?????
The media covers the tracks for the libs taking the heat off the worse decision and most important moral issue in history, abortion. They know that the majority of libs will forgive signing a bill to murder our baby’s but make coloring his face or posing with a KKK clansman sound like the worst thing ever.
Let them destroy themselves
Implode
So happy they are imploding!
The Democrat Party is juts finally showing their true self they are and have been the Communist
party of America. They have been Socialist’s since FDR and even before they were just able to hide
it better.
For the past 30 years I have openly referred to the Democrat Party as the party of foreign interests. Obama received over 50,000 donations for his campaign for the Whitehouse. Democrats often express their support for issues contained in the Communist Manifesto written by Karl Marx and called for by such extremist organizations like the Socialists Workers, NAACP, etc. They openly encourage the use of drugs and encourage homosexuality for our children. WAKE UP people!
You put ALA & it should be AKA: ALSO KNOWN AS.
What this writer says is true, but the Democrat Party is not entirely to blame for our country’s current blight. Conservatives, of which I am one, must accept part of the blame as well. Back in 1916 when the Progressive movement raised its ugly head, Progressives succeeded in getting some of their agenda through Congress. They were minor at first (Progressive socialists are a patient lot) and conservatives said: “oh that isn’t so bad, we can live with that.” The Progressives continued with their agenda of gradualism, and each time conservatives again said, “oh that isn’t so bad, we can live with that.” Worse, still, is that conservatives didn’t really pay much attention to what was happening. They didn’t push back when they should have pushed back This emboldened the Progressives to the point to where we are today.
If everyone would read Jonathan Cahn’s two books, The Harbinger and The Paradigm, methinks they would get a good insight of human nature and Biblical history. We are following exactly in the footsteps of Ancient Israel and reliving the history that transpired. Methinks this country was founded with help from God, but in return, He had expectations of our behavior as a nation. We have not lived up to those expectations, and even, He, as forgiving as He is, has a limit to His patience as was witnessed by His destruction of Ancient Israel around 732 B.C. The same fate, Methinks, awaits America if we don’t straighten up and fly right..
It is not “what you can do for your country” either, unless you serve in the military. It implies that we should do whatever our leaders want us to do. Most people seem to miss this.
The Democrat Party has been hijacked by the Socialist Party. Wonder had we not discontinued the mandatory military draft would America be in this position. I believe there would have been more push back, understanding the price of freedom and what America truly represents. We have many spoiled brats who have been indoctrinated rather educated. Mindless robots absent of critical thinking. If one does not learn from history then one is doomed to repeat it. Not a time to be silent.
If you study Bible prophesy, you can discern that what was foretold is happening at a faster and faster pace and we truly are nearing the end of this present period of grace. You will also notice that America plays no part in the story as a main player of coming events. So I believe that Satan and his liberal followers will actually become the majority group and will be the downfall of our once God blessed country. It all started when we as a people decided we wanted God out of our lives. He does not force his will on anyone, and more and more people think that they don’t need Him!
PaulE’s analysis confirms what many of us in our generation see – these coddled young people have been schooled by the “flower power” generation and have never had to take responsibility for anything. They were never made to work after school to get spending money or take any responsibility for their actions nor think about consequences of anything except their own selfish dreams which are now expectations.
I traveled extensively in the Soviet Union in the ’90’s and was stunned and even a bit amused at the total lack of connection younger people gad between cause and effect. It took me some time to recognize that’s what their muddled thinking was. I must say I never expected it to become so prominent in America. May we all take our part to teach our children/grandchildren and reach our neighbors with the truth of all this, and especially the freedom the message of Jesus offers to us not just here, but in eternity as well.
Excellent all encompassing article!
Too bad many Americans are unaware of what is happening to our country and ultimately their personal
lives. Keep spreading the information to all mediums.
YOU GO TRUMP, YOU GO…KEEP MOVING FORWARD, AMERICA IS WITH YOU…
The Democrats will pay for their obscene Medicare for all and numerous other “free” programs by gutting our military (what Socialist Democrat would want to go to war anyway) and raise all of our taxes. Once this country is devoid of our moral values and we get free legal drugs to increase the brain fog, we can just sit and slowly roast to death like the proverbial frog in the pot. We have to wake America up and fast, otherwise this great country is doomed.
Everyone should start checking the facts on what the Democrats are doing to our country, if they really want to give free healthcare, tuitions, someone should ask where are they going to get the money to pay for all of the freebies. Somewhere, somehow it has to come from somebody’s pocket and the Democrats said the rich will pay for it, still it won’t be enough. If it is going to come from their on pockets, not sure it is going to happen. The Democrats are all talk, and seems to give away the hard earned money we the the taxpayers pay every year.
Also, the question of why the Democrats want to give all these freebies, because that is the only way they can get more votes. Do you think a citizen who is checking all the facts about the Democrats will vote for the likes of Alexandria Ocasio Cortez who is pushing Socialism. I don’t think so, especially what we know about Venezuela, Russia and other Socialistic countries.
All I can say is we need to pray for our President who is truly making America Great and hopefully our Lord will prevail.
Isn’t Schumer the Minority Leader, not the Majority Leader? Of course, you wouldn’t know it the way he is treated by the media.
Down with socialism as well as the liberal left’s attempt to take our God-given liberties away from us. Many youth today have no real understanding of the word “socialism” they simply like the word “free,” as promised by those who push the socialism. We have only to look at China’s and Russia’s examples to see the failed attempt of these two countries’ implementation of socialistic ideals; it does not work. Our youth today need to respond with less emotion and way more educated thought before they jump onto the “socialist band wagon.” As the late President Ronald Reagan said: “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.” This young generation better wake up to what is going on in the liberal left movement and respond appropriately, if they are going to secure future freedoms to their children’s children.
What Democrat Party? It no longer exists. All that remains is a group of liberals (Leftists, socialists, Marxists, progressives, communists, or whatever the hell they call themselves this week). No longer identified as Democrats.
Unfortunately, it seems the Democrat/socialist/dictator’s party decides what we do for our country. Thanks to our weak republican leaders, we are feeling the birthpangs of oppression.
The democrats are no more, they have become the party of radical socialists. They believe, their way is the
only way and there can be no other point of view. They are not going to stop until the nation is thrown
into civil war. If this comes to pass every one loses!!!
Not what is, but what has happened!
That’s how communism starts. An indoctrination instead of an education. They’ve got your kids. Unfortunately, everyone’s been asleep at the switch for the past 2 generations. People like Michael Savage have been warning us about “the enemy within” for years. Liberalism is litterally a mental disorder, out destroy our borders, language, & culture. We need to true the education system and quick!
I actually plan to leave my estate to that very cause. Also, to truing our corrupt voting system.
I urge my fellow seniors to consider doing the same. It’s the one thing we can do to try and save the great country that we’ve fought for (and in my case served).
We question where can the truth be expressed without backlash. I suggest the pulpit and the return to ethics, character building, as well as courtesies and respect for others. Remember, God is in control and we need to call on Him to awaken the Christian values, which built this country, and restore the credibility of honesty, neighborly love. It’s not about the continual drive for more and greater amassed wealth. I never had a yard sale, I believe in the old fashion theory of giving our unneeded and no long used to those who could better appreciate and use my discards.
If we want to change things, start at home. Porn wrecks marriages. Drugs including alcohol, sex and violence attractions are all diminishing individual upstanding character. Besides stopping drugs, etc. coming into this country, we need to reestablish the shame in pursuing poor behavior.
Those who have drawn ridiculous guide lines and behavior will and must suffer the consequences of their actions. This country is based on Judeo/Christian foundations and diminishing and distracting form this crumbles the solid foundation of this privileged country.
Today’s Dem Party is NO longer the Party of JFK…. heck, for that matter, it is NO longer the party of Bill Clinton….. the Dem party USED-TO have some common sense….. but NO longer…. Today’s Dem party has been RADICALIZED….
Today’s Democrat Party is….. Anti-Semitic , Anti- Christian , Anti-Law Enforcement , Anti-Military , Anti-Constitution and Anti-American Citizen…..
Don’t believe me ??? ALL you have to do is to look at their Words and Policies….
The citizens of Sodom and Gomorra would be at home in this party today
The DNC adopted all but two tenets of the communist party for their platform at their convention in 2017.
From that time to now we see Ailensky’s playbook “Rules for Radicals” in full blown operation.
Those in the Law Enforcement Bureaus and Agencies are Democrats and do plan to overthrow the US government from within.
The RNC is living in the 20th century and wants to play along to get along with the DNC.
No one is upholding, defending or utilizing the Constitution of the USA.
Thank you!!!!!!!! Right on!!!
I AM 60 voted since 18 split ticket but after what Obama did to country I vote straight Republican and seeing how far left the Democrats have gone I will never go and vote for them!
The American Media is dead!!! Controlled by the communist left!!!!
Democrap Party is no longer credible.
Due to the MSM, Hollyweird, etc. the American “Sheeple” just don’t get it.
Dims are now the communist party and if they try to take over America then it would be civil war and I couldn’t imagine the military supporting the communists.
