I've grown accustomed to your face....


This is the face of the grass roots of the Republican party. An old angry white man. The grass roots are tired of being lied to by the Rhinos and the establishment Republicans. Tired of failure theater. Tired of voting to give the Republicans the majority in both Houses of Congress and being told that their hands are tied. That they can't appeal Obamacare. That they can't defund Planned Parenthood baby chop shops. That they can't stop the Iran deal that will give the bomb to our mortal enemies while we sell Israel down the river. That we can't get to the bottom of Benghazi, Hillary's emails or the IRS. That we can't stop Obama's usurpation of Congresses role in government with his refusal to enforce the existing law. Failure theater is so ingrained that they rigged it so that they can give Obama the Iran deal even if they vote against it when they are in the majority. Instead of forcing Obama to get the Super Majority they turned the process upside down into a rigged vote where they had to get the two thirds vote. They want our votes but then they don't do anything with them. Except feather their nests and get reelected.

So even an idiot plutocrat with a big mouth seem better. He is a New Yorker. The grass roots hates big mouth North Easterners who are blow hards and phonies. Except that even that is not as bad as another blow dried liar who talks Reagan and votes McGovern. So they are willing to blow it up. Elect-ability is a bunch of tired bullshit. Elect-ability got us McCain and Romney and more of the same. Appealing to the Democratic voting blocks is not the answer. They will never vote for a Republican. Ever. So it is a fools errand to drop your principles to appeal to someone who will never vote for you. We have seen this time and again. There are more than enough unmotivated people who don't vote who are in the natural base of the Republican party to win an Electoral college victory. You just need to target them. You don't have to be the President of all the people. Obama has proven that. Don't ignore the lesson of history that is right before our eyes.

Trump will not win the nomination. He will not be the candidate. But the candidate has to pick up some of what Trump is doing. He has to stop with the political correctness. He has to take the fight to the Democrats. He has to play dirty in the same way that the Democrats and the media does or it is all over before it even begins. Is Walker too wimpy? Is Rubio too juvenile? Is Cruz too scary?
Is Bush too bushy? Who is going to take it to the other side with enough piss and vinegar to get the job done?

This is the face of the grass roots of the Democratic party. A tired old white man who is a socialist who wants to redistribute the wealth of the nation to the people who are yelling at him for more stuff. He wants to give it all but it is not quite enough. It will never be enough. The words will always be wrong. The actions always inadequate. He will be racist and sexist and homophobic and hetero-normative and throw out trigger warnings to all and sundry. They are screaming and abusing him but he will dig in and try to find a way to take enough out of society to transfer it to others based on their insatiable demands. If elected he will continue to offer more stuff. More money for abortions. More student loans down a rathole for bogus degrees in womans studies or some other made up major. Big cuts in defense because Russia and China and Iran are our friends. More regulations to stop the production of domestic energy because we need to change over to solar and wind and magical unicorn power. More regulations to end manufacturing and industry because global warming will be a terrible problem in a hundred million years from now so you should give up your car to ride a bike and get run down by an illegal immigrant in a stolen car who doesn't have a license. And you have to like it. Or you are racist, sexist, homophobic and would kill a lion with a bow and arrow. Now it is time to socially engineer your hometown so it will have the proper demographic breakdown. The federal government is going to judge you and import enough thugs, thieves, deviants and lowlifes so you meet the officially approved mixture that the pointy headed professors and activists have decreed must be the only way that you can live. Just don't try to shop at a CVS, They will all be burned down and looted. Sell your CVS stock now. Get ahead of the curve.

That is what Bernie will bring you. He is the face of the Democratic Party.

You should get accustomed to their faces.
