The Democrat Party is so unrecognizable today because it’s gone. The name is still there. Some of the old faces are there. But the party of John Kennedy, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Barbara Jordan and Zell Miller is dead. Today’s Democrat Party is hollowed out by a chronic addiction to hyper-partisan controversies that mimic the feeling of being alive. Controversy gives Dems a constant drip of political dopamine they could never find in solving real problems. And they’re hooked now. So, we’re witnessing a case of shared psychotic disorder that’s driving the party to self-medicate.

When do we admit that they´re all communists and need to be tried for treason? That´s why, when Trump met with Putin they claimed he was committing treason. They were projecting and hoping to get in the first strike. Bottom line is this: Never ever trust a democrat politician. Never. In case I´m not clear, I mean never.

Did you see the unhappy faces of the Union stooges standing behind slobbering, stuttering, third-time presidential candidate Joe Biden in Pittsburgh yesterday?
Now compare that to Trump´s roaring crowd in Wisconsin last Saturday night.
We´re gonna win big folks!

You can´t kill a vampire. They´ll be back. And if the flow of illegal aliens continues they´ll take over.

But the dimoKKKrap party- the party that voted overwhelmingly against the 13th Amendment- is alive and thieving.

This brings to mind Men in Black and the "bug" wearing an Edgar suit. The dem party is just a convenient "suit", the skin of the party that was, that the Leftists have put on. They are hoping the knee jerk dem voters will not notice that the party is just a suit and there is a creepy Leftist bug inside it. Sadly, to some extent they are right. Many dem voters would vote for Jeffrey Dahmer if he had a D by his name. If we had a party with a soul or a functional media, such a thing could never happen. But we don´t.
I think enough voters are aware the dems are at a dead end and unwilling to make an honest effort to fix themselves. Hauling in Biden to the role of "savior" of the party shows they are running on empty. This is the best they can do?
If this zombie shuffle continues, Trump may have a YUGE blowout victory. What will the dem party do then?

FTA: "They want murderers and illegals to vote, free college, free medical, a guaranteed income, reparations, no guns, sanctuary cities, legalized prostitution, a federal law to legalize pot, and they want a duly elected president to be impeached."
You left out the part about infanticide.

As long as there are stupid people, there will be a Democrat/Communist party.

I´d say it´s way past dead. They´re like zombies now. Undead and on the attack. We better figure out the antidote before they take over the whole place.

The Mueller Report confirmed what rational people already knew but to the Democrats it was like Christmas morning arriving without any presents...or even a tree.
After years of hype and bizarre, intricate revenge fantasies uttered by every leftist, they got sod all. They don´t seem to understand that 400+ pages is not meant to make them feel better - it´s strictly to make Bob Mueller feel better about having to say nothing and deliver nothing.
As the author notes, despite the shock of no shock at all, some of the more foolish and desperate types (including CNN and now Drudge who seems to have taken up heroin) are carrying on.

I am confident that barring any major catastrophe Trump will win in a landslide. I sincerely hope his coattails provide us with a super majority in the house and senate so we can actually get some of the big things accomplished that requires the congress to do something.

This is what desperation looks like. The clown show that will be billed as the Primary Debates will reveal just how bad it is for them. All we have to go on now are bits and pieces of really stupid campaign promises from clueless dummies who think they can handle the Oval Office. They learned that if Obama could do it, anybody could do it but his presidency was one big illusion.
The democrats used to have a simple, manageable formula, give the union workers everything they wanted and receive millions of dollars in campaign contributions from the union mafia-connected bosses. Everybody was happy and the law couldn´t touch any of them. Now that the unions are dying out, the mutual back-scratching scheme is dying with them.
My day will be made when Hillary and Michelle announce that they are jumping into the race. As the old NASCAR announcers used to say, "It don´t get no better ´n that."

Remember the quote from Iowahawk regarding what the left does:
"1. Identify a respected institution.
2. kill it.
3. gut it.
4. wear its carcass as a skin suit, while demanding respect."

The democrat party has been taken over by the DSA socialists. It was their stated intention to do it this way, running DSA members in democrat primaries until they reached critical mass within the party to take control of the party, and then the country, and then impose socialism upon an unwilling and unwitting American populace.

For me, the Democrat part - my party at the time - died when we elected a man who said that he didn´t inhale.
Clinton lied to America´s face and told us to deal with it. In response, Democrats shredded their integrity and voted for him. I registered as a Republican and I´ve never looked back. And Democrats have not even attempted to address their core problem. They trust and support lies and liars.
Good riddance. To me, America has not been the same since.

The so called Dead Democrat Party is increasing its vote tally by the hundreds of thousands on our border as we try to stay out of the media lights of persecution.

The Democrat party is in the process of being cremated by radical, power driven anti-Americans who want to destroy our country. They´re now using Stalin type tactics supported by their media goon squad.
Going forward they´re going to make a lot of noise about impeachment to drown out the AG proceedings to investigate the coup on President Trump.
The good news is President Trump will beat the Dems to a pulp in the process and win the 2020 election.

Many are already projecting a glorious win for President Trump in 2020. I pray they´re right.
But to me, this smacks of irrational exuberance. I´ve never been one to count my chickens before they´ve hatched. Much can happen between now and November 2020, especially when our President is aging well into his 70´s. May God preserve his health and protect him from those who would harm him.

The turning point for the Democrat party was with George McGovern in 1972. Due to his leadership, the party embraced many radical and fringe groups. This is why he lost to Richard Nixon by a landslide. The Democrats/Progressive have become ever more extreme since then.
They have gone from JFK´s,
"Ask not what the country can do for you, but what you can do for your country"
to
"Ask not what you can do for your country, but expect the country to do everything for you."

I am afraid the "Expect the country to do everything for you" crowd will vote Democrat.

The dumbing down of America is a prime reason the democrats exist.
