Good VDH column on why we are seeing so much illegal

Post by 133743Hokie »

activity against Trump by so many government officials and employees. In short, because they all thought Hillary was a shoo-in to win and they were looking to ingratiate themselves to her presidency for career advancement.

"Another, more helpful, exegesis, however, is to understand that if we’d seen a Hillary Clinton victory in November 2016, which was supposed to be a sure thing, there would now be no scandals at all. That is, the current players probably broke laws and committed ethical violations not just because they were assured there would be no consequences but also because they thought they’d be rewarded for their laxity."

Sorta. I think he's right to an extent, but they're also elitist liberals. They're assholes that believe they're above the law because they're dumb enough to think they're smarter and more virtuous than the common folk. He's right about the climate, but they'd do it anyway as that's what they do. They're Obama approved Chicago style dirtbags.

I think you are kidding yourself if you think this is a liberal thing only. This is a bureaucracy thing.

It was made worse by the progressive left who worship at the alter of government, but this about unchecked power and entitlement. The only thing the idiots in washington value more than their party, is their power and in reality their party is only their to get them power. Very few dems are stupid enough to buy into the progressive BS, but the party is the source of their power. All of the govies fear Trump bringing these outsiders in and having them shred their little empires and god forbid make people self reliant.
Looks like the only thing 1984 got wrong was the date.

"Only" is extreme, but they certainly dominate elitism and condescension. The neocons and some moderate republicans fit that mold as well, but it's less of an issue the further right you move along the political spectrum. The right is more mature and good natured than the left. The typically comes into government after obtaining some level of power. The left comes into government in order to obtain power. See Trump vs Obama for an example.

It's a great example Manchester Maniac. Obama was a communist agitator and Nation of Islam supporting racist nobody before coming into power. Trump amassed wealth and power before moving into government to make America great again. Obama then went on to abuse that power. My example is excellent as your left with your normal 6 words or less idiotic response.
