Democratic debates were a gift to Trump and Republicans

[dukkha]

Julian Castro says he wants to turn illegal border crossings into a parking ticket. Park yourself in America, get a fine! President Castro probably isn’t going to make you pay that fine, by the way. Kamala Harris wants to abolish private health insurance. Elizabeth Warren wants to forgive student debt. Oh, and everybody in the Thursday debate wants Uncle Sam to buy health insurance for however many Guatemalans, Hondurans and El Salvadorans manage to sneak across the border.

One minute Democrats are waxing poetic about the humanitarian crisis down at the border; the next minute they’re proposing to make it 100,000 times worse by issuing engraved invitations to the couple hundred million people south of the border who would love to be ushered into the American health-care system. Bring all your ailments to El Norte, illegal immigrants. American workers will pay your bill.

In the age of Trump, politics has gotten a bit exhausting. A gravestone in the latest “Simpsons” Treehouse of Horror episode read: “Slow News Days.” Wouldn’t it be nice if things could calm down a bit?

Any presidential candidate who stood before the American people and said, “I vow to make politics so boring you won’t have to check the news again till 2024″ would have a pretty compelling argument. There must be millions of Americans in the Upper Midwest thinking, “I dislike Trump but things are otherwise pretty much OK.” Not a single Democrat is trying to reach these voters.

“Return to normalcy” was a winning campaign slogan in 1920, which Joe Biden ought to remember since that’s the year he was first elected to the Senate. Biden seemed like a plausible Return to Normalcy candidate as of, say, 8:59 Thursday night. Not anymore.

Soon thereafter, when every Democrat raised their hands to offer health care to everybody who manages to sneak into the country, Biden didn’t want to seem like yesterday’s man. “Welp,” thought Joe, “I guess that’s what these crazy kids are into today!”

Remember how the entire Democratic-media complex clutched its pearls at the suggestion that any Democrat would ever cover illegal immigrants’ health care? A blink of an eye later, and the Democrats are bragging about this. Pete Buttigieg thinks it’s our Christian duty as a country to pay for illegal-immigrant health care. I think Mayor Pete might be confusing Jesus Christ with Oprah. “You get free health care! And you get free health care! And you get free health care!”

Also, the Dems want to charge you, Todd and Tanya Taxpayer, to send rich kids from Brooklyn off to Oberlin to major in revolutionary socialism. Also, they want abortion to be legal up to the moment of crowning, with Todd and Tanya forced to pay for that, too. Marianne Williamson’s harness of love was the least crazy idea on offer. If the Democrats had been pre-programmed by the Republican National Committee, they could hardly have damaged their brand more.

Thursday night, even the commercials seemed to undermine the Democrats. A spot for the Alzheimer’s Association in the middle of a program that starred Biden and Bernie Sanders? Hilarious.

Really? Well a gift to Putin's puppet and global terrorists prostitute tRump and his anti-American government conspiring GOPer b!tches would be a gift to the rectum of satan the devil. Now what type of success is there in that I wonder?

[anonymoose]

Right Wing Nut Jobs has now lost all meaning. Yes, it was accurate at one time with "legitimate rape", etc. But the loony left has far surpassed what was once RWNJ's. And repubs purged the RWNJ's, seems to me. I haven't heard anything crazy from them in a while. Yet even main stream dims have completely lost their minds.
Reparations, open borders, free college, after birth abortions. Insane!

You dip deep into the stupid again. illegal immigrants are committing a misdemeanor. is there a reason why you always need to be such a stupid f****** moron?

[Darth Omar]

No, somebody said something about it. that does not make it the Dem platform nor will it happen.

Remains to be seen but it’s not going to matter because Trump will make sure no one forgets they advocated it.

I made the point in another thread: these aren’t even competent politicians—and they are trying to become president.

If I’m advising democrat candidate A here is what I say: don’t say anything crazy. Don’t raise your hand for anything crazy. There are millions of democrat voters who aren’t dissatisfied with things under Trump—we need to focus on not loosing these voters to Trump. Voters that want the crazy stuff aren’t the voters we need to worry about because we already have them.

This should be easy.

But in terms of their Grand Strategy it at least makes some sense.

Get them in the country. Get them free healthcare. Then get them voting. It’s not even a secret any more that ‘progressives’ want to shift demographics in order to win elections and stay in power. Ostensibly, because they can’t win *fair elections* on the issues with the current demographics—so they intend to cheat.

We may be deplorables but they despicables.

Their problem is ‘free healthcare for illegals’ is—very thankfully, a losing issue.

[Getin the ring]

there are a lot of people who watched those debates and decided,

That was scary
I think I'll stick with Trump

the entire stage full of Dems raised their hands in support of free illegals healthcare

Trump said he was going to make Mexico build a Wall, did that happen?

Called primary season, candidates are attempting to appeal to everyone in the party including the fringes, when they arrive at a candidate the positions will shift back toward the middle, nothing new

And besides, how many people as yourself who are offended by such remarks actually watched the debates? In the end, means little

Is that how laws are made? Illegals are not allowed medical care in the US, but often a sick child is treated at an ER.

Hate to tell you, but the demographics are changing on their own, just as they have throughout American history, nothing stays static and time can't be reversed.

All the nativist warnings you are giving have been heard in the past, and probably even by someone in your own family somewhere along the line
