How horrible! Imagine that. A candidate for the country who dares to demand his own party avoid giving an undeserved victory for a temporary and tiny concession. Why Democrats would never do that. Right!<\/p>\n<p>Actually, Democrats are famous for doing exactly that. For example during the George H.W. Bush presidency, Democrats wouldn\u2019t vote to authorize the first Iraq war. Then when Bush proposed common sense legislation that would help the economy, Democrats slapped it down. They would rather see the country fail than to see Bush win, even on something they previously considered to be a good idea. They were even willing to give the Presidency to someone as despicable as Bill Clinton, because he was a Democrat.<\/p>\n<p>Contrast that to what happened while Clinton was President. His performance was so awful he was headed toward defeat in 1996. Then New Gingrich came along, with the \u201c<strong><em>Contract with America<\/em><\/strong>.\u201d Clinton, who was failing miserably, wisely let Republicans pass their agenda, then he took credit for it. Gingrich put the country first and the result was four more years of Bill Clinton. Unfortunately Gingrich also lit the fire under the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac economic nightmare that would explode during the George W. Bush administration.<\/p>\n<p>When George W. Bush was President, Democrats tried to constantly undermine him. After briefly uniting following 9-11, they turned on him again. During his last four years they absolutely refused to pass desperately needed legislation regarding subprime mortgagees and the abuses at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Bush warned congress that failure to act threatened our entire economy. He was right. They were wrong. Yet it was Bush who paid the price for the resulting economic meltdown.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov\/news\/releases\/2008\/10\/20081009-10.html\">Setting the Record Straight: Six Years of Unheeded Warnings for GSE Reform (archives.gov)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Over the past six years, the President and his Administration have not only warned of the systemic consequences of failure to reform GSEs but also put forward thoughtful plans to reduce the risk that either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac would encounter such difficulties.\u00a0 In fact, it was Congress that flatly rejected President Bush&#8217;s call more than five years ago to reform the GSEs.\u00a0 Over the years, the President&#8217;s repeated attempts to reform the supervision of these entities were thwarted by the legislative maneuvering of those who emphatically denied there were problems with the GSEs.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The result was eight years of Barrack Obama and eight years of economic stagnation. Republicans didn\u2019t oppose promising ideas by Obama, they didn\u2019t need to, he never proposed any.<\/p>\n<p>When Trump became President, Democrats started out to sabotage his administration before he took office. The Russian collusion hoax, perpetrated by the Hillary Clinton campaign, was embraced by Democrats and their supporters in the establishment to make it difficult, if not impossible, for Trump to govern. Even when Republicans controlled the House and the Senate, Democrats make every possible effort to thwart anything proposed by Trump. The MSM even resisted allowing him to address the country on Prime-Time television. Democrats in congress literally voted to impeach him for daring point out the obvious evidence of massive corruption in the Ukraine by Joe Biden. Then they voted to impeach him again for daring to ask congress to please, please at least consider the mountain of evidence regarding systemic mail-in voter fraud during the 2020 election.<\/p>\n<p>My greatest fear is that if Trump is elected again, Democrats will spend the following four years trying to sabotage him again. They won\u2019t even consider doing the right thing for the right reason. Democrats never do that. Instead, they will hold legislation with broad bi-partisan support hostage in exchange for their extremist outrageously expensive left-wing dreams. Then they will blame everything on Trump.<\/p>\n<p>This happens repeatedly and Republicans repeatedly cave, for the greater good. There is only one way to deal with saboteurs. You stop them and put them in a position where future sabotage isn\u2019t an option. You never compromise with them because they are incapable of compromising with you. Any perceived victory on your part will merely pave the road for future more devastating sabotage.<\/p>\n<p>I once read where one of the first Prime Minister of Israel, David Ben-Gurion, met with a holocaust survivor. He asked this man what he would suggest. The response was that <strong><em>\u201cif someone says they will kill you, believe them!\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The saboteurs intend to destroy us, our way of life, our economy, and our freedom. If the saboteurs are not stopped now, what will they try next? Putting governors on our electric cars so they can never go faster 10mph over the speed limit?<\/p>\n<p>TDM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The MSM is outraged that Donald Trump vetoed the planned deal with the Biden administration to \u201cclose the border\u201d (temporarily), give money to Israel and give money to Ukraine.
