    Default This week was one of the worst on record for the Democrat Party

    “Pelosi's miscalculation and Trump hatred.”

    “This week was one of the worst on record for the Democratic Party, and it’s been entirely self-inflicted. The meltdown in Iowa, the acquittal omf President Trump, and the emerging schism between the far left and the Democratic establishment are all manifesting as a result of gross miscalculations by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).

    The thesis going in must have rested on a misguided belief that impeachment would damage Trump and disadvantage the three senators who were challenging Joe Biden for the nomination. Then Biden would outperform his history and expectations, and the party would unify around electability in the form of the former vice president.

    But “electability” is merely PC speak for “Trump hatred.” Since Trump hatred is the only issue Democrats can agree on, it must have seemed like a reasonable theme to Pelosi.


    With the unfolding events, we are seeing that this thesis rested on three gross miscalculations: (1) Biden has magically transformed into a viable candidate, (2) the establishment can use Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and his legions of followers when it suits them and then push them aside when it counts, and (3) the case against Trump would attract bipartisan support. All three assumptions are proving to be without merit...”

    Trump not being found guilty of the crimes he did, was a low point for the Repubs. They voted on party lines and blocked the trial from doing its job. Trump is purging all who did the right thing. I wonder what he can do to Romney, but I am sure he is ruminating about it. The fact is the left was galvanized as much or more than the rightys. The reds remain where they were.
    Biden magically transformed into a candidate? What planet do you live on? Biden has been the front runner since he announced. He has a huge advantage in S.C.
    Again, don't speak for the left, because you know nothing about us. It would have been nice if some Repubs did their jobs instead of sucking up to Daffy Donald, but none of us really thought they would. The Republican party is dead. It is the Trump party now and he is the king of it. There is nobody who can speak up.
    Pelosi did not miscalculate. She did not want to push impeachment.

    The Dems shot themselves in the foot. Nancy looked like a sore loser that was upset that the US was doing well when she tore up the speech. The Democrat party is imploding. Its almost as fun to watch as election night 2016.
    Trump doesn't wear glasses because he already has 2020.

    The Dems can't take to many more "decent" weeks like last week.

    The Cult of the Dirtbag have been hit square in the chops and are reeling.

    The Dems are marching forward to victory.

    100% true. And it was so fun to watch the liberal lunatics' meltdown because of these things. Hilarious to observe!

    Will this be "IT"?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    C.Wallace mentioned not 1 word about Trump's week - he's so butthurt about Trump he's now using fake news. (practices of non-coverage of favorable events.)
    Instead he did the entrails of the Dems elections
