Dem demonizing political rhetoric to whip up the yokels. Gone now, as they're sucking up. Biden all smiles, hosting Trump and Melania at the WH on Wednesday.

 

And so he should, or should I say, must, it's what is done, in those circles/occasions.........

 

But no McDonald's delivery for the Dem's, or ladies of the night awaiting in the shadows, the Dem's have a bit more class, though I am sure Trump will be very disappointed............😨

What have I learned from lefties?

 

They fall into 3 distinctive categories.

 

1.  Stupid.

2.  Special kind of Stupid.

3.  Insane.

 

None are curable.

Stupid statement, you are saying that of half of your countrymen........

 

Are you feeling OK, was Trumps winning too much for you to comprehend.........?......🤕

Leftists know only one way to move forward and that is lying to people.

They are the worse kind of populists there is.

Saying one thing, doing the exact opposite.

There is also a very clear connection between leftism and the aristocratic mindset. These people really believe that they have it all figured out and that the populace is completely moronic.

They are pushing an agenda called technocracy which is an utopia based on the belief that total control of enlightened elites over everyone else is the surest way to paradise on earth (when really it is a new form of authoritarianism).

They also love radical utilitarianism, even if that means destroying their own people in the name of the greater good.

That they do not do opinion along with humour as evidenced by this post. They immediately go on the attack if something doesn't fit their small field of view with things like 'you are so thick' etc. 😴 Very strange breed, indeed.

Protests against Donald Trump erupted in the US on Saturday as people on both coasts took to the streets in frustration about his re-election.

Thousands of people in major cities including New York City and Seattle demonstrated against the former president and now president-elect amid his threats against reproductive rights and pledges to carry out mass deportations at the start of his upcoming presidency.

 

If thousands took to the streets. Does that mean millions couldn't care less and millions more might actually agree with Trump ?
 

A conundrum indeed.

But Trump is not a lefty, so you're wrong..............🤕

[dinsdale]

I don't think the OP's question is balanced. There are people who are left and then there's the radical progressive woke left. The average person IMHO hates the latter. This certainly played a part in Trump's victory. The "left" must move back to the centre. If they continue to pander to the radical progressive woke left they will be in the wilderness for a long time.

That without "lefties", the US would be even more bankrupt than it is.

 

Consider....

 

Blue States are the largest net contributors to the Federal coffers, especially CA and NY. Toss in NJ, MA and IL, and the losers in Red States get their Social Security Disability Insurance and SNAP covered, especially in the truly dumb States of WV, KY and TN.

 

Lefties, or Democrats, are also the only Party that can say they have had serving Presidents who never presided over the start of a Recession, such as Kennedy, Roosevelt, Clinton and Obama. Many inherited Recessions, such as Biden from his predecessor, but no Repub, or 'righty' POTUS has ever NOT presided over the start of a Recession.

 

The stock market also traditionally performs better under lefty Administrations than the supposed "Party of business".

 

I do not have the numbers and data for 2020, but I do have the data for 2016. The winner won 85% of all US Counties, while HRC only won 15% of Counties. Still, her counties represented 62% of US GDP, while the winner's 85% of all US Counties only accounted for 38% of US GDP. Assuming the righties lack the ability to figure, those figures mean Blue Counties are 9.25 times more productive that Red Counties. Intellect might not have the strongest correlation with production, but those numbers certainly suggest which ideology captures the highest IQs---and it's not the right.

 

Of course one only need look at 47's rallies to see the brightest bulbs are not in attendance. "I love the poorly educated" indeed.

 

Even some of the righties know they learn better in institutions run by lefties. Bannon, Cotton and Cruz all went to one of my universities, a decidedly left-leaning institution. Nobody ever learned anything at 47's eponymous 'university', except how to get swindled.

 

Lefties don't necessarily expect the righties to get down on their knees and be thankful, but in their heart of hearts they know progressives are what made and who funds the modern world, perhaps going all the way back to Francis Bacon, the Scientific Method, and the Renaissance. Lefties are not perfect by any stretch, but liberal and progressive is concomitant with thinking outside of the box, not hamstrung by anachronistic traditions and pining for some fantastical 'greatness' that never existed.

I just want to tell you the time last year I went to clean a nursing home in my job and it was purple trans day , it was a very very great day indeed to see the male  nursing home residents dressed up as women with blue eye shadow and lipstick

Don't be silly, just because some here don't want a fruitcake in the big chair, doesn't mean they are lefties.

Some Republican Politicians voted Dem for the same reason, so don't to put everyone in the same bracket just because it's too hard for you to comprehend/understand .......🙄

Yeh sure! You post this diatribe but fail to mention the world's richest man who is obviously very bright backed Trump. Fairly sure Musk can't be described as a "lefty". Of course the "left" is no longer the left of the past which is why Trump appealed to so many who would traditionally vote left. The left has sold out their base and ran an idiot for a candidate because they're so out of touch with reality they thought they were a shoe in.

I would be very interested to know who these Republican politicians that voted for Harris are. You must know otherwise why would you say it. What states? Senators? Governors? Representatives? The list will make interesting viewing. Hoping you will post the list soon.

Well I looked at this and all I saw was former. Former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Former Vice President Dick Cheney, Former Representative Liz Cheney, Former Representative Adam Kinzinger, Former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, Former Senator Jeff Flake, Former Congressman Denver Riggleman, Former Representative Fred Upton etc. I'm guessing any sitting Republicans that voted against Trump are in solid blue states. Guess you're not going to say who these were though.

Category A.

[Screaming]

One the glaring lessons that I have learned from the lefties is that they have no absolutes. Nothing is sacred to them, marriage, life as opposed to abortion, spirituality and the list goes on:

I learnt to write with my right hand.  It looks pretty much the same.

Back in the day, I knew identical twins, one of whom was left-handed, the other contrary, and their writing was very similar, bar opposite slope.

In Australia, we have the left and the right too.

 

Almost invariably, the reforms benefiting ordinary people come from leftist governments. Medicare, social security. The US would do well to copy our Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme.

 

The rightist governments are dedicated to enriching those already rich, preserving the status quo, or tearing down leftist reforms.

 

Every time they try, they get a bloody nose from voters.
