Can you feel it? Remember how unimaginable it was that world communism would fall, let alone of its own weight? But it happened. When Poland and Hungary shucked the Marxist boot the almost unthinkable prospect started to look real . Much has developed in the last year in the U.S. to generate a similarly joyful outlook.
The Democrat party is of course, despite having some devotees who are of good will, nonetheless the vehicle by which the totalitarian left has intended to take complete control of our lives. Having done so, radicals would then do as Hitler did in the Reichstag one day early in his dictatorship when he turned to a faction of key supporters and said "and now I have no further need of you". The American left has been denied the road to irresistable power and to reenter it must disingenuously remount the "Democrat" donkey. If it fails, they fail and it is failing.
The party is led just now by the disdainful Senator representing downstate NY and nowhere else, Charles Schumer, a man seemingly born with a sneer in his voice. Tottering by his side is the increasingly impaired Rep. from lala land, Nancy Pelosi, though she has of late been distracted by her competition with Andrew Cuomo for "most hilariously pompous and histrionic 'orator' of modern America". Nah, these two don't get it.
What they ARE slowly getting though is this and its a catastrophic realization for them: Donald Trump, who they saw as an accident, a clown and a punching bag is proving to be a most formidable President and the increasing certainty of this even to them is turning them white with panic and dread. The rock has been lifted and the bugs are scurrying. Their frantic personal assault on the President is showing them up, for all the real America to see, for the petulant brats they are.
He pulled off the political miracle of our lifetimes by emerging from the very depth of improbability to deny the vindictive Hillary her dream. Had he emigrated to the moon at that point it would yet have been a staggering achievement reflecting all unlooked for perseverance, horse sense and strength of character on his part. His concrete accomplishments over the last year are well known to all possessing open minds. He is one tough cookie; he's been talking trash to them now for a couple of years, like all canny street players do and they've surrendered to enervating juvenile outrage at it ,while he sits back and watches them squirming and exhausting themselves. He made fools of them in this recent government shutdown fiasco and they know it.
They had intended to ensure their predominance by creating of illegal immigrants, together with convicted criminals as the Virginia governor has, a prospectively decisive voting bloc. It ain't gonna happen now: President Trump has mobilized the real America to where it will tolerate nothing short of a real fix to this fixable problem. He faced them down and then proposed a deal which is the framework for a very workable compromise. It may create more Republican voters than it does Democrat and it will, to the despair of the left, assuredly include the wall most Americans want. This is an appalling setback for the radicals; it may finish them. Too, much more humiliation is in store for them at his hands including the possibility of their disenfranchisement as an effective opposition in the 2018 and 2020 elections.
But the exemplar of the tactic which is their best hope is obvious. Slick Willy! He was dealt a body blow in 1994 when the blatant radical intent manifested by him and his grimly determined consort was clear, by losing the House for the first time since the Norman invasion. He faced the unthinkable prospect of being denied access to White House interns in 1996. His response was that of the essential sneak that he is, shameless preemption of what he was theretofore loath to contemplate. "Denahh, denahh, denahh, bybee". "Why hell, I've always been a small government man and I just love them cops. And as for them on the dole, well put 'em to work I say." Yeah, but it worked for him didn't it?
Look for the Dems to fall back on this, their last hope. That of course marginalizes Bernie Sanders, an honest totalitarian and maybe Liz Warren too. But Cory Booker, Kamala Harris , Prince Andrew and the sweetheart of the junior class, perky naughty mouthed Kirsten Gillibrand, may well embrace this in their quixotic crusade to deliver an unresponsive America from the thrall of a politically incorrect usurper. Oh, I hope so. Because, when they lose, they will be history. Oh they'll still pollute lost places like Ithaca, Berkeley and the once mainstream media; meantime President Trump will be about truly uniting this country in prosperity, common sense, strength and democracy and we'll be fine all the while.

Boy, I wish I had your optimism! I sincerely hope all this comes to pass. One thing I don't foresee, though, is Democrats reviving the Bill Clinton playbook and tacking to the center. Some Democrats may, but that will touch off a civil war in the party, because the far left won't have it. It seems to me that the Presidential candidates are stumbling over each other to demonstrate their radical leftist fervor. I expect more of that. Once one of them has the nomination in 2020, well, maybe then they'll discover the charms of moderation. My guess is that what will unite all Democrats between now and then is supreme contempt for Donald Trump, and so the endless barrage of personal attacks on the Trump family will, if anything, increase...
Dr. Waddy: Very good point; most of the contenders have made it obvious at least now, that they think a constant course to the left is a winner for them. And its certain they would "discover" "moderation"after having secured the nomination as they seek to patronizingly "relate" to the real America. But I think it possible they will lose their nerve in the near future as our President relentlessly beats them down and then wisely offers them a kind of guarded compassion that would never occur to them. I wonder how much influence Hillary still has. She was able to keep the radicals on board when "Bill" went off the deep end in his personal quest for the endless summer. She might be able to appease the crazies. As much as I despise her, I think her life is a testament to realism and yes, self sacrifice in pursuit of a cherished, though nonetheless discredited goal. But I sense 1989 approaching in America; Gads, I hope I'm right.
