Trump Is Demolishing Democrats

Original Article

Posted By: 4250Luis, 10/12/2025 8:06:25 PM

In the escalating drama of the 2025 government shutdown, one thing is becoming increasingly clear: President Trump is refusing to allow Democrats to wedge the country into humiliation, inaction, or moral collapse. Recent events make clear that Democrats didn’t merely stumble into this shutdown — they *planned* it. As Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer recently admitted, “we prepared for this,” using health care subsidies and ideological bargaining chips as a cudgel. Meanwhile, Trump has struck back, refusing to let his political opponents have the sole power to define the stakes.

Those polls blaming Republicans are hard to believe. People must watch the mainstream news and little else. This "shutdown" is solely on the Democrats. Also shows the Dems know only what they are told by the lying media.

President Trump needs the help and support of every non-Communist American to do whatever they can each day to help destroy Democrats, who have been waging war on America since the 1960s and even earlier as part of the International Communist movement. Chaos is the Democrat Plan. They use Antifa, BLM, and illegal aliens to destroy our cities and attack the men and women who protect our civilization based on the rule of law.

Yes he is. The best part is that AOC and the other left wing nut jobs are rising out of the ashes of the Dem party.

Excellent point that the dems are all about posturing and political theater. And it's not only that current dem ideas are bad, they have been acting this way for quite a while. All of Bidet's term was political theater. They "did" things but none of those "things" were useful to the Country or to the American People and the longer that they lingered the worse they seemed. If the dems are actors, they were walking around the stage, taking a "dump" and moving on. After a while the stench filled the theater. However, the dems seem to have lost their sense of smell. Since Trump was elected in 2024, they also seem to have lost their minds and any ability to self examine their actions. They think whatever they decide to do is a win, just because they need it so desperately. Yet, almost everything they do is a glaring, stupid loss and drives their credibility as a functional political party further negative. A government shutdown is almost always seen as a negative event for BOTH sides unless there is some associated transcendental issue. The dems have no such issue except hating Trump. The public has already decided that issue with the election and since January, Trump has shown great stability and incremental wins on issues with public perception. "Trump is Hitler" has lost its power except for the radical Left. The Republicans produced a "clean" resolution and claimed the high ground right from the start. The dems are running out of mole hills to die on.

Schumer is being stupid now but his cunning deceit, formerly known as "leadership" that worked for years, has backed him so far into a corner that the paint has already dried in the rest of the room. If the radical leftists get their ultimate wish and AOC becomes the face of the party, sales of popcorn will go through the roof. Like they say in those intimate meetings held regularly for drunks, "one must reach rock bottom before healing begins." The democrats are well on the way.

If you're not a person who hates Israel and who has routinely shown sympathy for their terrorist enemies, Monday was a good day, with the surviving hostages being released as a result of the historic peace deal between Israel and Hamas, brokered by President Trump and members of his administration.But Monday was not a good day for CNN's longtime chief international anchor Christiane Amanpour, a British-Iranian "journalist" whose name has become synonymous with Israel- and America-bashing. As RedState reported earlier, Amanpour was one of the sour-faced media figures who, while talking about the hostages being released, seemed to fret about Hamas supposedly losing their "leverage" in the deal.

President Donald Trump has performed nothing short of a miracle by halting the war in Gaza and securing the release of 20 precious souls who had been languishing in Hamas captivity since Oct. 7. Trump’s efforts were greeted with jubilation and relief in Israel — and amazingly, in Gaza as well. The cease-fire is the first step in a larger peace deal that could reshape the Middle East and end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict for good. This alone would have been enough for us — Dayenu! as we Jews say on Passover. But Trump’s achievement is all the more extraordinary: His diplomatic breakthrough won’t cost American taxpayers trillions of dollars.

President Donald Trump settled scores with his political foes during his passionate address to the Israeli parliament on Monday, taking a swipe at Hillary Clinton and blasting his predecessors Joe Biden and Barack Obama. Trump, who appeared before the Knesset on Monday to tout the Israel-Hamas cease-fire deal that he brokered, said that the two Democratic presidents who preceded him in the White House harbored “hatred” for the Jewish state. “All of the countries in the Middle East that could have what we’re doing now, it could have happened a long time ago, but it was strangled and set back almost irretrievably by the administrations of Barack Obama and then Joe Biden,”

For two days, the Venezuelan government didn't acknowledge that opposition leader María Corina Machado won the Nobel Peace Price, though it's understandable. Illegitimate narco-terrorist president Nicolás Maduro is losing his stronghold on the nation, and Machado is largely the reason for that. On Friday, the whole world learned who she is and what she's fighting for, which amplified the country's desire for freedom and democracy, and especially its desire to remove the tyrant who holds it all hostage. Best Maduro can do is pretend her team is blowing up the not-in-service U.S. embassy in Caracas and that his security forces stopped them —

Hamas terrorists have started to free the last remaining hostages in Gaza Monday morning, following a historic peace deal brokered by President Trump. The freed individuals had spent over 730 days in captivity after they were among a group of 250 kidnapped from southern Israel and dragged into Gaza during Hamas’ deadly Oct. 7, 2023 invasion. An elated mother of one of the freed Israeli hostages was able to video chat with her son for the first time since he was taken captive by Hamas during the Oct. 7 attack on Israel. "You’re coming home! You’re all coming home!" Einav Zangauker was seen telling her 25-year-old son,

President Donald Trump pulled off a monumental accomplishment with the peace deal in Gaza. He will be going to Israel to speak there on Monday. The hostages are expected to be released on Monday. Twenty of the remaining 48 are reportedly believed to be alive. Negotiators instrumental in the deal, Steve Witkoff and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, were in Israel ahead of Trump on Saturday. They were in Tel Aviv's Hostage Square along with Ivanka Trump and a crowd of tens of thousands of people waving Israeli and American flags, cheering what the Trump team has achieved.

Joe Biden's post-presidency has been rough, to put it mildly. Nearly nine months after Donald Trump reclaimed the White House, Biden is holed up in Wilmington, Delaware, grappling with a reality that must feel like political exile. He's dealing not just with the sting of losing power, but also the inability to sell access and enrich his family. Though he won’t admit to the latter. The irony couldn’t be thicker. After years of attacking Trump and using the Justice Department in a desperate bid to put his successor behind bars, Biden now finds himself being told by his own advisers to stay quiet and act like a traditional ex-president.

Hillary Clinton heaped some rare praise on her former arch-enemy Donald Trump for his handling of the Gaza peace deal in a recent interview. “I really commend President Trump and his administration,” Clinton told CBS News 24/7 Friday. “As well as Arab leaders in the region, for making the commitment to the 20-point plan and seeing a path forward for what’s often called the day after,” she added. Clinton’s comments came just a day after Hamas agreed to Trump’s peace plan in a stunning move that is expected to end the two year war that’s ravaged the Gaza Strip.

Barack Obama has fallen yet again for a boy-faced Democrat hoping to "turn Texas blue." During a recent interview on Marc Maron's podcast, the failed former president touted James Talarico, the Texas state lawmaker running for U.S. Senate, as a "terrific, talented young man." Democrats haven't been this excited about a U.S. Senate candidate in Texas since Robert Francis "Beto" O'Rourke, who lost his race in 2018 but also managed to impress Obama with his terrific talents. Talarico won praise from Democrats earlier this year by going on Joe Rogan's podcast. He parlayed that appearance into a U.S. Senate campaign and fawning headlines, such as

In 2018, President Trump was riding high on a wave of winning. Republicans had never had it so good, but Democrat operatives plotted their comeback, flooding Republican-held Congressional districts where Hillary Clinton had won. Millions poured into Orange County, California, as Democrats sensed an opportunity to flip Congressional seats blue for the first time in decades, if not in history. Gavin Newsom, then the Lieutenant Governor, was campaigning for Governor, shoring up all the support he could for Democrats running for Congress across Orange County, including Katie Porter, a law professor from UC Irvine. A fat, squat character actress of a candidate, no one could imagine this hog winning anything.

In what universe is Christiane Amanpour living? Better, yes, is she on drugs? She might need to get tested after these mind-numbingly stupid remarks about the recent release of the Israeli hostages.

Seriously, lady, these people were starved, raped, tortured, and some of them murdered. What the hell is that statement? [Video] Hamas hates Israelis. They hate Jews. They want to destroy them, and somehow, they’re treated as if they’re on extended stay at the Ritz-Carlton. Terrorists don’t reason, you boob.

The 2020 census was marketed as an “actual enumeration,” a neutral count of people for apportionment and funding. It was not. The same official who helped block a basic citizenship question in 2018, John M. Abowd, then the Census Bureau’s Chief Scientist, pushed through a new, opaque methodology in 2020 called differential privacy. The new system deliberately injected mathematical noise into every block count in America, turning the census from a headcount into a model with knobs. The knob that mattered most was a single parameter, epsilon, a secrecy shroud known only to a small inner circle.

Something seemed off during Kamala Harris’s latest MSNBC appearance over the weekend. When asked whether she had spoken to Joe Biden after news broke that he would begin radiation treatments for prostate cancer, Kamala stumbled through a strangely awkward exchange. MSNBC’s Eugene Daniels gently tried to draw out a warm or reassuring response. Instead, what viewers got was a revealing moment that felt almost uncomfortable. “Have you talked to him, um, about it?” Daniels asked. “Yeah, no, I, I called him earlier,” Kamala said. “How’s he doing?” Daniels followed up. “I have not talked to him,” she admitted. “I just left him a message… after I heard the news.”

Here’s how the game works. In Trump’s first administration, radical federal judges just issued rulings blocking government actions. As the second term admin has been more aggressive about pursuing Supreme Court interventions, federal district judges are issuing frivolous rulings intended to barrage SCOTUS with a constant need to intervene. And that’s followed by complaints to the media that the Supreme Court is seizing too much power and undermining the judiciary.
