Some readers of this article will immediately ascribe hyperbole and gross exaggeration to its title. Many of these readers will do so due to an emotional reaction rather than having a willingness to read, much less understand, the reasons for the accusatory title. If one truly understands the policies advocated by today’s democrat party, one will indeed be very challenged not to agree that the party and its leaders are enemies of America’s constitutional republic, founding documents, and indeed the Founders themselves.
Dictionary.com defines the term “enemy” as follows: “a person who feels hatred for fosters harmful designs against, or engages in antagonistic activities against another—.” Presented herein is evidence supporting the statement that sadly, today’s democrat party is in truth, America’s enemy. Further, this evidence is sufficient reason to very seldom vote any democrat candidate into political office, especially high political office.
Students of American history (taught before the advent of so-called “progressive,” far-leftist teachers and professors) know that America’s founders intended for the new nation to be one with limited government, an abundance of individual liberty, free markets, guaranteed freedoms of speech, religion, right to bear arms, and other liberties and rights contained in the original Bill of Rights.
The Founders placed heavy emphasis on citizens being individually responsible for their behavior and actions. While the term “capitalism” is not in America’s founding documents, this is the economic system that allowed the nation to become the world’s economic powerhouse making it possible for fewer and fewer persons to live in poverty than ever before.
Regrettably, the above American attributes and successes are opposed by today’s democrat party as evidenced by the following examples of “enemy traits”:
1) Democrats advocate for socialism or what some of them call “democratic socialism”. Regardless of terms, democrats have “harmful designs” against the nation’s economic, political, and social fabric/underpinnings where they want to greatly enlarge the role of government in every citizen’s life—no more limited government (or what’s left of it) for America; democrats want and lust for greater control and power over the daily lives of Americans.
2) Democrats have “harmful designs” and exhibit “antagonistic activities” against Americans’ freedom of speech and religious rights. Democrats and democrat-supported/controlled organizations regularly censure the words and speech of non-democrats who do not support the democrat agenda and frequently accuse them of being racist for opposing the democrat agenda. Democrats initiate legal action against Christians and other religious groups who use their freedom of speech rights to speak against some of the social doctrines of the democrat party.
3) Democrats have “harmful designs” and exhibit “antagonistic activities” against Americans’ 2nd Amendment rights to bear arms. Such designs and activities are found in the democrat party’s insistence upon and dedication to gun confiscation via mandatory gun buy-back programs in different states.
4) Democrats have “harmful designs” and exhibit “antagonistic activities” against America having secure national borders to better control and prevent illegal immigration, drug smuggling, and human trafficking into the United States. Democrats advocate for and sponsor sanctuary cities and states where the protection of illegal aliens, many with criminal records, is paramount.
5) Democrats have “harmful designs” against American capitalism and free markets. Democrats believe that socialism is the best thing for America where the government and/or government-controlled entities control the means of production, set prices, determine products and services to produce/provide, and so forth. A prime example of such disastrous, centralized planning was the Obamacare hospitalization program with the individual mandate.
6) Democrats have “harmful designs” and exhibit “antagonistic activities” against America’s police departments by advocating for these departments to be defunded in one way or another. In other words, democrats care more about maintaining chaos and crime in America than they care about maintaining law and order and protecting law-abiding citizens.
7) Lastly, Democrats in general exhibit a deep, vitriol “hatred for” a duly elected President of the United States. This hatred extends to the people/voters and the electoral system that enabled the currently sitting president to take office.
In conclusion, the above examples of “enemy traits” exhibited and practiced by the democrat party members fully warrant characterizing this organization as an enemy of the United States. Voters will be very wise to refuse to place into any political office any candidates supporting the democrat platform and policies.

you’re absolutely right. I live in an area that is predominantly Democrat. When they don’t think anyone is listening they say how they really feel. but in public they just repeat talking points. The president of the gay pride here is a militant evil human being. I asked him why he thought it was so important to push homosexuality on children and he told me what he really believed. To increase his dating pool. I said that’s disgusting, you’re 40 years old. He attacked me and kicked me out. These people are absolutely evil. He even told me he absolutely hates this country and wants to see it brought to its knees. he only said these things because he thought I was one of them. All of his friends are exactly the same and I don’t know a single Democrat who doesn’t hate this country. If they have any power they will do everything they can to tear it down. everything they say has an ulterior motive. Which is why no matter how much fact you bring to the table the conversation will always end with them screaming they know they’re wrong and they don’t care. Now they’ve stolen the election and after this there will never be another Republican president again. Ever. either we kill them or die. They will not negotiate. They will not compromise. They will not discuss. They will only destroy. We must kill them all
Great Article. The Democrats are actually today’s Fascist Party which they claim to abhor. Antifia is their ‘army’. Vote Trump!!
If they weren’t the enemy they wouldn’t need paid propaganda networks. It’s the party of evil plain and simple. There no greater cancer than “socialism” in any of its forms.
This is accurate. Finally an article that tells the absolute truth about the modern democratic party, paramilitary arms like Antifa, and in general the left selling itself out to foreign powers for political control inside the USA.
Great article! … Explicitly points out everything today’s so-called Democratic Party is! As I’ve always said that the only thing “Progressive” is that today’s Democratic Party is Progressively Communist!!! They are hateful, racist, angry and resentful to the point that they are 100% consumed with evil and they behave so!
SAYING THE DEMOCRATS ARE AMERICA’S “ENEMY” IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT; THEY ARE THE MOST EVIL FORCE IN AMERICA RESPONSIBLE FOR “TURNING” THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA WHICH “MISINFORMS” THE PEOPLE AND THIS PROMOTES FALSE NARRATIVES WHICH ARE LEADING TO THE COMPLETE AND TOTAL MORAL BREAKDOWN OF AMERICA’S HIGHEST INSTITUTIONS AND CULTURE. THIS PARTY IS AGAINST ALL THAT IS DECENT AND HUMANE IN AMERICA AND IS SO ANTI-GOD BECAUSE IT CLASHES WITH THEIR FILTHY DEGENERATIVE AGENDA WHICH IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF EVERYTHING THE BIBLE AND CHRISTIANITY STANDS FOR. I’M ONLY GETTING STARTED…………….COULD WRITE TWENTY THOUSANDS WORDS BUT WON’T.
THE ONLY FUTURE HOPE FOR AMERICA AND TO STOP THE COMMUNIST CHINESE INFILTRATION OF OVER A 100 COUNTRIES?
WE MUST, MUST, RE-ELECT POTUS D.J. TRUMP (GET ON YOUR KNEES NOW, YES…..YOU, ON YOU KNEES) AND PRAY FOR A RIGHTEOUS OVERWHELMING ELECTORAL MANDATE VICTORY FOR POTUS TRUMP 2021-2025! “SOLDIER FOR LIFE” RETIRED, UNITED STATES ARMY…………………”STILL ON DUTY (AGE 69) FOR USA………..IN MY HEART!”
Very good article and I agree 100% I’ve been saying the same thing for several years now and will continue to expose the enemy for as long as it takes. Thank you for article!
Absolutely correct. The Democrat Party divorced America in 1860. After the Civil War Democrats knew they could not defeat the North so went to Passive resistance. Democrat allegience never recommitted to the nation except in words. The Democrats went on a criminal spree murdering Republicans Black and White. The KKK and other similar organizations went on state sponsored acts of terrorism. Killing Black elected officials and replacing them with Democrats. Blacks were generally terrorism.
The Justice System was compromised to protect only Democrats. Democrats decided to officially use racism via Jim Crow to prevent Black Republicans from voting thereby retaking control of power lost through emancipation and the instatement of Civil Rights for former slaves
They’re not “democrats” as far as I’m concerned. They are the Communists that J. Edgar Hoover warned Americans about in his 1958 book, “Masters of Deceit” and unfortunately, over the decades citizens became complacent while the evil of Communism slithered it’s evil tentacles into American politics and society. Since the 1960s, Communists began covertly taking control of the “democrat” party, big media outlets, education system, corporations and even Holly’weird’…(Joe McCarthy was right). More recently, social media sites have fallen to their evil agenda of destroying America from within, just as Hoover warned about. Then once they figured out how to steal a presidential election in 2020, they became more emboldened than ever and here we are. And don’t think they haven’t been planning the theft of the 2024 election and every one after it, as well.
Hoover’s book is a free online, page for page read that can be found by searching: “J. Edgar Hoover, Masters of Deceit Archive” and I urge every American who cares deeply about our country to take the time to read, learn and share the link because it’s a LOT later than far too many realize.
its time to destroy the democrats show no mercy they are ENEMIES now !
I’m afraid I have to say goodby to my blessed friends in the comments
I’ve learned that about 50-75% of the commenters are fake left-wing trolls. Problem is it’s too easy to pretend to be some one else inhere. Rik, PaulE, a few other “favorites” are likely fakes. Know way to tell but the left is really lanching an attack here.
I spoke with a Friend in IT technology who said that the site probably needs verification through phone numbers or other not forgeable systems.
Great article, the Democrats are truly the enemy of the people. I pray that everyone sees this and votes Trump2020??????
Progressives, liberals, democratic socialists do not describe this party. Regressive, socialists are better terms to use for the new MFSC Party.
The enemy is within and are desperately trying to “transform this country”. The party of Hate, Hypocrisy, and Hysteria must be soundly defeated.
We must vote these morons out of office. Must take back the House! End the corruption, the violence, the lies and deception.
A vote for Bumblin, Hiden, Biden and Fraulein Harris is a vote against America and the destruction of our great country.
KEEP AMERICA GREAT!
KEEP AMERICA, AMERICA!
T-P 2020!
It’s that cradle–to-grave “we’ll take care of you” mentality that rubs me the wrong way. I’m fully capable of making decisions for myself, from which insurance company was best for me before the dreadful Obamacare came along, to what I eat for breakfast, to how I prefer to defend myself, to what I wanted my children to learn in public school.
But democrats don’t see it that way. Their leaders think everyone else is stupid. They want complete control over the population in order to effect the America they think is best. They want to reshape history to assuage the guilt they have been made to feel for having been born white, or male, or rich. So, of course, they go overboard in the opposite direction. They know this will buy them millions of votes. Free the prisoners, let filthy tent cities infect our downtowns, make rich people pay for free college and free health care for everyone else. Defund law enforcement because 9 or10 people of color (and many more white people, btw) were inappropriately detained last year–and killed–out of the millions (?) of criminals arrested.
Yes, democrats are enemies of the people. The first chance they get, they will nullify the Constitution, which is the only guarantee that We the People have the power, and that the federal government is limited in their “enumerated” powers. This is how a nation determines for itself what the future will look like. Its citizens decide. And the only way we can do that is if we make smart choices. But because democrats want to relieve you of your right to self-determination, they, by default, will shape the country. They will tell you what your future will look like. Is that something you want?
The means by which they see their policies come to fruition are despicable. We’ve heard it all in the news–voter fraud, vicious lies, complicit liberal-leaning media, a politicized FBI and department of justice, and a third-rate educational system. But all many of us consider is the free stuff we’ll get if we vote for the democrats. There’s too high a price to pay for relinquishing our freedoms. America is a brave new experiment, and I, for one, will fight to participate.
Total idiocy. The writer and his ilk are the enemy. And the fact that he serves in the military does not make him right. Ask the moron’s generals who the enemy really is. And to lie will get you nowhere except perhaps trouble–bad trouble.
Tell me again which party should go in the blank here? Maybe the one that spent the last year screaming that an election certified by all fifty states and repeatedly upheld in court was “fraudulent”? The one that constantly says the other party is “evil”?
This is the most ridiculous article I have read in a long time. It is based on nothing other than one persons political beliefs with no facts to support anything. Just plain idiotic. IF Mr.Gardiner is truly a Military Retiree, he would not support a President who is a draft dodger. A President that had 5 deferments and that last one based on false medical reports. Mr Gardiner conveniently leaves these type of FACTS out of his article. I was drafted during Vietnam and served my country, this President is a coward.
Yet, all of the illegal, improper,treasonous,immoral,unpatriotic, selfishness,imprisonment of children, family separations,attacks on peaceful protesters, and lying to every American everyday. All of which has been proven. (FACT) His response to this pandemic is disgraceful, over 170,000 people dead and counting and his response is (It is what it is). Why didn’t you mention any of this Mr. Gardiner? Because it would have taken up your entire article and required more pages to list it all. Laying blame for everything on Democrats is old and not working anymore, this President has used it for 4 years now along with hard core Republicans and the country is wise to it. IT WONT WORK ANYMORE.
What a piece of biased crap. Using examples from some Democrats as proof that all Democrats believe this way is irrational. Blaming all Republicans for the actions of the tRumpian sycophants is equally irrational as recent events have shown. If you want to believe “One man’s opinion”, without any proof or factual basis go ahead and join the rest of the folks who deny that what is going on is destroying our democracy. I would suggest that the author study the history of the evolution of the Constitution. He could start with the 19th amendment. I feel sad and disappointed at the divisiveness at a level that did not exist until relatively recently. This article is a good example of that divisiveness when the author identifies a political party as “The Enemy”.
