FUCK THE POLICE (02-13-2017)
..with their dictating to flyover country. He was on Meet the Press. I didn't hear it all-
but that stood out to me. I'm a centrist at heart, and Jim Webb would be a fine candidate for POTUS.
He said the Dems are out of touch with the working class. and that's why a lot went to Trump.
That was exactly my reasoning too as well as many "blue Dog" ( centrist) Dem's obviously
He would not dislcose how he voted -but he said no way would he ever have endorsed Hillary Clinton
and her big donors.
The big idea is the Dem's have become shrill Progressives with ideological far left idea and rhetoric.
I couldn't agree more. They offer nothing right now.

Clinton reminds us why we’re lucky she lost the election
thank you, Hillary Clinton. Thank you for *reminding America about the importance of Donald Trump’s victory and of the awful consequences if you had won.
Clinton sent out a taunting tweet of “3-0” after the three-judge panel from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously slapped a halt on Trump’s executive order on immigrants and *refugees.
Her support for the ruling isn’t surprising — Clinton said she was for open borders at one point — but the gutter sniping was telling. The activist judges who based their ruling on their liberal politics instead of the Constitution are the same kind she would appoint to the Supreme Court and all other federal courts if she were in the Oval Office.
And so it went in Week 3 of the Trump era, with Clinton’s taunt, the court ruling, nonstop demonstrations and congressional hijinks combining to illustrate why Trump’s election was crucial. It was a necessary course correction and a dramatic rejection of an arrogant government that both overreaches and underperforms.
Put another way, the hysterical, hateful reaction in many quarters to everything Trump says and does is absolute proof that the ruling elite deserved a comeuppance. The establishment was drunk on power, political and cultural, and never yielded an inch voluntarily or had the decency to admit error. Its rage reflects its sense of entitlement.
his unhinged rage is the new America — only it’s not new. It was hiding in plain sight, hinted at by the contempt that Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, tenured radicals, college snowflakes and the Democratic media openly held for those who don’t share their worldview.
Trump’s victory ripped open the vein, but it would have erupted at any Republican president. Modern liberals’ contempt for others is essential to their sense of superiority and justifies violence in the streets, threats and simple rudeness. Contempt for others lets mayors think they can disobey immigration laws and judges think there is no law but theirs.

Webb's résumé is rather Republican-like.
He's probably one of the better Democrats.
I DVRd MTP. Thanks for the heads-up.

What's ironic is that Trump's presidency is becoming the true change we can believe in. A change from presidential race hustling, a change from organized squatting and riots, a change from punitive policies like Obamacare fines and penalties, and certainly a change from green lighted illegal immigration policies.

True. Trump is such a regular guy. So in tune w/ the working class.
I mean, just look at his Cabinet. So folksy, so diverse - all kinds of income levels represented.

I attempted to do this as a Democrat, I quickly learned the power of pay-to-play political machines in an era where it takes either a billion dollars or a lot of luck on social media. With few exceptions, we know in this country that a hardwired elite now controls or dramatically influences our media, major media, our financial institutions, and in many ways our political system itself.
This guy Donald Trump,” he says, “the Republicans hate him, the Democrats hate him, the media hates him, I think I found my guy.” So, I would like to salute Donald Trump for his tenacity, and for the uniqueness of his campaign.
Behind the veneer of diversity there is an interlocking elite that has melded business, media, and politics in a way we never could before imagine. Many of these people also hold a false belief that they understand a society with which they have very little contact. Nothing has so clearly shown how wrong they are than the recent election of Donald Trump.
Presidents Don’t Risk Themselves By Going Into War
How wrong are these elites, at least as it relates to the rest of the country? Look for a moment at the most glaring foreign policy failures of the past 15 years. Ask yourselves how could one Republican presidential administration have made such an incredible strategic blunder as the invasion and occupation of Iraq, only to see the next Democratic administration make an equally grave strategic blunder, at least as bad and possibly worse, by initiating what was called the Arab Spring? Unilaterally intervening in Libya and instilling an inflammatory foreign policy concept known as humanitarian intervention, giving a president, any president, the power to unilaterally intervene anywhere, under the euphemistic rubric of responsibility to protect.
Responsibility of whom to protect whom? At whose risk and whose benefit? The answer is that in too many cases the masters of our foreign policy decisions are no different. Not only in foreign policy but in a large percentage of the issues that face the country.

While Webb is not my favorite former senator he reiterates what many others on the l eft have pointed out and it will be the death of that party.
And yet they continue to doube down on it.
Such brilliant idiots.
