Quote of the Day
For today’s Democrats, nothing matters more than hating Trump. That, my friends, is a crucial point in all of this. Hatred of Trump has become their go-to position on just about everything; it is what energizes them, motivates them and dictates what they say and do.
…
Instead of coming up with fresh ideas to show why they’re a reasonable, more rational alternative to Trump, what they’re doing is showing anyone paying attention why he won.
Democrats think Trump is the enemy. But the truth is, they are their own worst enemy.

Opinion: Democrats’ hatred of Trump makes them their own worst enemies
My view of the Democrat party is that they define themselves by what they hate. It may have started earlier, but at least since the U.S. Civil war they hated Republicans because they were going to take their slaves away. Then they hated people with dark colored skin because, “Those uppity blacks think they are just as good as white folk.” Then LBJ convinced the party the votes of the blacks be bought*.
As Democrats warmed up to and passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 Senator Dodd (D) introduced the precursors to the Gun Control Act of 1968. These were Senate Bill 1975 in 1963, “A Bill to Regulate the Interstate Shipment of Firearms”, and Senate Bill 1592 in 1965, “A Bill to Amend the Federal Firearms Act of 1938”.
Democrats, in general, have hated gun owners ever since they started pretending to be defenders of blacks.
I would like to believe that they have a limited amount of hate. If this were true, then as their hatred for Trump, Musk, and MAGAs increased the hatred of gun owners would decrease. But as the legislative record shows, the hatred has spread and increased in intensity rather than focused.
As I have said before, “Gun owners are the ni**ers of the 21st Century” and “the anti-gun bigots are the KKK of the 21st Century.” See also Bigotry is alive and well. And Quote of the day—Dinesh D’Souza.
Perhaps, all this hatred has finally caught up to them.

I have seen that quote before but what is the provenance of it? Anybody know?
I’m all for calling out dems for their irrationalities, but calling them “the party of hate” as though they have a monopoly on that emotion requires willfully ignoring the reality on the other side. For every dem you show me who can’t handle seeing a man with a gun I’ll show you a republican who can’t handle seeing a man in a dress.
Really?
I see a man in a dress setting in congress. See MTG packing her AR in there?
“I’m all for calling out dems for their irrationalities.”
Since when?
A man only puts on a dress because he is mentally ill. Wants to be something he can never be no matter how bad he wants it. (Your DNA ain’t going to change.)
Why would anyone trust someone that mentally frustrated? That out of touch with themselves?
And it’s not the dress, it’s the demand that everyone else acknowledge you as a woman.
It’s mental illness demanding everyone else ignore reality along with you.
Sorry, no honest comparison to be made there.
“Perhaps, all this hatred has finally caught up to them.”
We can only hope.
We must always keep in mind that before they hated on Trump. They hated you even more. Trump is just the “crash dummy”. They finally found a single focal point for their white-hot hatred for us.
What they don’t understand is how close they came to getting a real revolution.
Trump is just showing them they no longer have legitimacy. And can never win it back in their present form.
But they will morph. Cause that kind of hatred only dies in the grave, or from extreme trauma.
They been communist brainwashed. And it was my generations great sin to let it happen.
I wouldn’t plan on it going away soon.
“What they don’t understand is how close they came to getting a real revolution.”
And they have not a clue that it has never been taken off the table. Should their mental irrationality manifest itself in physical action, I have no doubt Correia’s Switch will be flipped.
Most assuredly.
Americans standing hard against disarmament in all its forms would give any normal person cause to step back and think of the real situation the communists find themselves in.
And Yuri warned us of that very thing. They just can’t get it.
Useful idiots make the best cannon fodder.
But were in the internet days. We know who the bosses are.
They know we know who they are.
I’m praying that will be enough.
SF writer L. Neil Smith used to point out that Dodd used the Nazi’s 1938 gun control law as the template for his law. It would be interesting to compare texts, I have not tried that.
As Clayton Cramer points out, gun control started when the Democrats realized they needed to disarm the newly freed former slaves. That allowed their terrorist wing (the KKK) to terrorize without much worry about getting shot in the attempt.
Read the book on this topic. The texts are eerily similar.

You make an interesting point about the Democrats’ focus on hating Trump rather than offering fresh alternatives. Do you think we’ll start to see them pivot toward more constructive ideas, or is this trend likely to continue in the 2026 elections?
I’ve always considered that the core promise/premise of the Democrat party was that they would take money from people who earn it, and use it to buy votes from the unproductive.
Democrats are a coalition of the idle rich at the top, with the parasites of the middle, and dole moles at the bottom, all geared towards living off the productive classes.
Democrats love to portray Republicans as the party of the rich, but that’s really only true in the sense that Republicans are the party of the -working- rich.
The oligarchy, and the trustifarians overwhelmingly support the Democrats because of their promises to socialize costs like medicine, unemployment, housing, and the like while privatizing profits. (A system that has precedents in history… but left as an exercise for the reader).
I think the hatred we see coming from the Democrats now is just the manifestation of their fear of becoming irrelevant.
