Can We Please Have Something Normal?

As is often the case, Tom Maguire speaks what many of us are thinking. This week, following the Democratic debates and a poll indicating that only 25% of Democrats want a “bold, new agenda” he tweeted:
“Per this poll, this is not a 'Time For A Change' election; It's a 'Can We Please Catch Our Breath And Have Something Like Normal For Five Minutes, Please, I'm Begging Now' election.
But Dems, transfixed by the Twitterati, aren't listening. Too bad.”
With him, as well, I share this favorite exchange of the last “debate”:
INSLEE: ...I've heard you say that we need a realistic plan. Here's what I believe...
BIDEN: No, I didn't say that.

OP, I agree. It is like the entire democrat party has been infected with some sort of virus which makes them mean, unreasonable, anti-American, and extremely angry. Their speech is vicious and it is meant to do maximum harm. If they believe these qualities will endear them to voters, they are sorely mistaken. Most Americans are sick of them.
The last election devastated them because they thought HRC would sail through and their progressive agenda would thrive. She would get to sit on her throne and the Deep State would run the show. When that did not happen, she pitched a fit and the Deep State went on a mission to create political chaos which would end with the destruction of President Trump. This whole lurch to the left with its violence, hateful speech, and disrespect of this President was not something that occurred organically. It was a creation of the Deep State. They had to create unrest and hyper menacing speech directed toward this President in order to create an atmosphere that would support impeachment. Otherwise, they knew this President would not ignore their lawlessness and massive corruption and they would be exposed so he had to go. While it has taken a long time for this to all play out, I hope to watch the Deep State in the last throes of death soon. While they struggle mightily against the power that will destroy them, I pray that the good guys will be victorious. It is my sincere desire that they will get the just recompense for their evil deeds. If anyone deserves the long arm of the law to grab them by the scruff of the neck it’s this reprobate cabal of democrat politicians and bureaucrats. Justice must be done. It is the only way to go forward.

"Can we please have something normal?"
Not from the increasingly left-wing Democrat party.

There was an interesting phenomenon associated with Hillary in 2016. The more often she appeared the lower her polls went. It seemed like the electorate liked the idea of a dem candidate but Hillary as the actual candidate was off putting.
I suspect Trump's poll numbers will continue to rise because the dems are just so bad. Not only their disastrous ideas but their abilities to lead and govern are deeply suspect. They have a debate and everyone cringes or laughs at the absurdity. Potential voters compare dems as a clown group to Trump and Trump wins or at least as compared to the dems.
If people were honest and compared outcomes underTrump to expectations of how the Country should run in general, good economy, lots of jobs, respect for law, low taxes, people well enough off that they don't need assistance, a reasonably safe and stable world, Trump has been VERY successful. If course for those blinded by hate, their vision is badly distorted.

Just so, #1. MS Word reveals that just 611 of the 1,759 words in the piece are Clarice's own - a paltry 35%. Pieces indeed.
A similar depressing trend is occurring on a particular show hosted by initials RL - rhymes with scrimshaw - in which bizarre lefty screeds are agonizingly read out in full a la Paul Harvey. Long minutes of insanity must be endured so the host can mock them for a few seconds.
In both cases the presenters seem to operate on the premise that the rest of the world doesn't also have internet access and we probably have already seen the articles in question.

Normal is gone forever Clarice. Gen. William Sherman signed agreements of peace in Raleigh to let the Southern soldiers go home peacefully. DC threw a fit. Sherman rebuked them and Lincoln agreed with Sherman.
Sherman was terrified the Southerners would turn to guerrilla warfare. He said the war would never end, and the end the North and South will both lose. You can't win a guerrilla war.
Normal is gone. America is now at war, the jihadist are here and they have been activated.They wear black uniforms and black masks. Many are muslim and many are young Americans that hate America. The genie is out of the bottle.
It is now war in our streets. Murder and mayhem with terror. Soon the beheadings in public will arrive.

"out of the mephitic cauldron of bubbling nonsense, an occasional bubble of sanity rose to the surface and expired in a satisfying eructation."
Brilliant writing as usual. Clarice covers the democrat debates as well as what is happening in the country on the positive side for us conservatives. One highlight is that inner city blacks are getting glimpses of the world outside their cities and are seeing what a poor job their own corrupt politicians are doing to them.Things are looking brighter for a Trump landslide every day. Many of the democrats are doubling down on taxing and spending on pipe dream giveaways and Joe Biden wants an extension of Barack Obama's huge failures. They are doomed.

#2, it's called socialism/communism and they've been that way far longer than some know. They just aren't hiding it as much anymore. Don't believe me? Review what ted kennedy, the u-boat commander in the senate, was doing with the soviets, per the released Verona files. There's soviet collusion, right there.

The left doesn't do 'normal'. They do 'utopia' with them in charge and us begging for scraps.

Dems have established a reign of terror within their own ranks, wherein each candidate is afraid of saying something less extreme-leftist than the others, so all they can do is escalate the insanity. They won't return to normal for a long time.
