The Never Trumpers and the Deep State work together to defeat Trump

If we'd elected President Cruz or President Carson or President Fiorina, Washington DC would still have voted 97% Democrat, and that's the demographic that supplies the federal government workers, who make up the base of the deep state. James Hodgkinson who shot up that ball game still would have had a list of Republicans to kill--he'd been spouting off and raging before Obama was elected and used Bernie's and Pelosi's hateful words in his latest outbursts. The media have warned us that mean words and toy guns incite violence. The media and Democrats have fantasized that the Tea Party and Republicans are just KKK without the sheet and have shouted this to the unstable.  Comey who said he couldn't find "intent" in Mrs. Clinton's misbehavior which wasn't his job, still would be deciding what was to be leaked to the press, also not his job. Reality Winner still would be working for the NSA, and California would still be funding the Georgia election to turn Congress to the Democrats. The only difference would the the Never Trumper Republicans and Libertarians who do the talk-show gravy train and write for the Washington Post. They would not be trying to kill the Republican party and return the power to Democrats.

The left flipflops on what influences us

Liberals/leftists/Democrats were big at finding crimes in conservatives showing up to speak on campuses, or symbols of guns in children's lunches or Sarah Palin's campaign the last decade--said it would lead to violence. Somehow they are blind to a Shakespeare play where a Trump look alike is murdered, or a woman holds up a mock severed head ala ISIS as a comedy routine, or late night TV rants with violent sexual overtones are OK. Oh no. No connection at all. Couldn't possibly enflame anyone even though they've been telling us for years it does. Just not their team. And the list of Republicans Hodgkinson allegedly carried with him? And they make this a gun issue refusing to look at their own hatefulness?

Michael Smith comments on the role of the left in the assassinations attempt by Hodgkinson

A percentage of the radical left are hailing James T. Hodgkinson as a "patriot" for trying to kill Republicans in his fight for freedom.

Remember this: Hodgkinson wasn't killing for freedom, he was killing for more government. He was a supporter of the socialist Bernie Sanders for goodness sake.

It is not a fact that "both sides do it" - and it isn't so much the rage of one party or the other that is the issue. It is the fact that everything these days is politicized. When nothing is personal and everything is political, personal situations that should remain personal are subject to scrutiny by people who have no business scrutinizing anything. This is what happens when collectivism creeps in and the collective is given veto power over the rights, beliefs, thoughts and speech of the individual.

Democrats are progressives and progressives are collectivists. James T. Hodgkinson was not in Washington to fight for more independence, freedom and liberty, he was there to kill members of the party that is trying to prevent liberty from slipping away. Hodgkinson was there in anger because his party was not achieving MORE control over individuals and thereby reducing independence, freedom and liberty.

Progressivism is to blame, not any specific political party - because there are progressives in both. Progressivism kills. It always has, it always will.

Failed again--Washington Post blind to its own crimes

I just read some background research in the Washington Post on the shooter of Republicans playing ball, James Hodgkinson.  Or should have been.

1) Interview with the station attendant who put air in his tires who remarked how he'd had a temper tantrum, 2) blaming Trump (lots of detail just in case you've missed all the dirt)
3) for his lack of work when the attendant worked 6 days a week;
4)  interview with his wife in Illinois who knew nothing.
5) Also interviewed the local Democrats in Illinois who don't claim him--called him a lone wolf.
6) Nothing about his decade of anti-Republican rants in newspapers and social media.

He was fixated on blaming others for his failures--even before Obama. But they sure had details on the guns. Not a peep that perhaps the drip, drip, drip (98% negative) of lies and hysteria in WaPo about Trump could have contributed to Hodgkinson's feelings of failure, smallness, and depression. WaPo needs to hire some real writers, if there are any left in DC.

There is a backlash, more from the left than the right

We didn't know about the shooting of Republicans at the baseball practice--we were flying over the nation on our way home from Edinburgh, then saw a snippet on a Fox crawl through the seats on the plane. Rush Limbaugh said Hodgkinson’s Facebook Page Reads Like a CNN Panel on Russia. Yet, remember, Rush and "talk radio" are always blamed by the left, but the violence comes from them. They are blind to the hammering of Trump and Republicans (98% negative according to a recent study done at Harvard) and the ridicule on late night TV which is earning them high ratings and more money. They night after night talk about Russia hacking the election and destroying our democracy when in fact they are the ones, drip, drip, drip, until the unhinged believe them, despite no evidence.

Just Google a very general search about liberals (politicians, media, entertainers) who ask the public to kill, assassinate or maim conservatives/Republicans, or who accuse Republicans of wanting to starve or kill the poor and elderly and you'll see that the search bring up their hatred, the incendiary language, the riots at little Middlebury and huge Berkeley, burning buildings, blocking speeches, and insulting millions of Americans by Clinton as racists, sexists and bigots, all in the name of the first amendment while demonizing the second amendment. Obama blamed the right with no evidence after the Gifford shooting, but it is the left weirdos and anarchists who actually commit the violence in the name of protecting THEIR free expression.

In February 2016 an Atlantic article opined:   "There is a backlash against the liberalism of the Obama era. But it is louder than it is strong. Instead of turning right, the country as a whole is still moving to the left." Yes, this Atlantic article eventually gets around to blaming the right for violence on the left. Racism and growing violence in the Black Lives Matter movement is blamed on whites (for any reason including their race).

"The Right doesn't like it but the Left loves it. And it is economic violence in our system. "There has been little public backlash on economics, either. President Obama has intervened more extensively in the economy than any other president in close to half a century. In his first year, he pushed through the largest economic stimulus in American history—larger in inflation-adjusted terms than Franklin Roosevelt’s famed Works Progress Administration. In his second year, he muscled universal health care through Congress, something progressives had been dreaming about since Theodore Roosevelt ran as a Bull Moose. That same year, he signed a law re-regulating Wall Street. He’s also spent roughly $20 billion bailing out the auto industry, increased fuel-efficiency standards for cars and trucks, toughened emissions standards for coal-fired power plants, authorized the Environmental Protection Agency to regulate the production of carbon dioxide, expanded the Food and Drug Administration’s ability to regulate the sale of tobacco products, doubled the amount of fruits and vegetables required in school lunches, designated 2 million acres as wilderness, and protected more than 1,000 miles of rivers."
