Yes it’s true. Hatred of Trump trumps love of country. Trumps patriotism. Trumps the hope of destroying a clear and present threat from religious fanatics.
I find it disturbing and disgusting. I remember how political differences used to be about tax rates and health policy. It used to be about policy and policy differences. Which were debated in the halls of Congress. Now it’s about hating Trump. It’s paid protesters on the streets. It’s regular violence. It’s open calls for the murder of Donald Trump. Which I thought was a felony.
Victor Davis Hanson, calm professorial historian, ponders the questions. He talks of the hypocrisyod the Left over this war. If it were prosecuted by Obama, the media and the Left would be swooning and cheering it on. As they did with his bombing in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya.
There is no doubt in my mind, in my following of politics in America, that big chunks of Democrats have become openly, even proudly, violent and anarchical. During the “mostly peaceful” No Kings protests last Saturday, I saw sprayed onto the walls of a Federal Building: “Kill your local ICE agent”, followed by the the Anarchist sign. Nothing was done. Nothing.
