"Oh, OF COURSE. Privately, we were having conversations all the time!"
"Chuck Schumer, this probably ended his career!"
"And frankly, privately, the Democrats would recognize the position of their far left was crazy. But they all feel a little bit like they're being held hostage by their far left."
"They don't care if the troops don't get paid! They don't care if you cause billions of dollars in lost productivity. They don't care if you shut down the airline industry, which they were very close to doing. They just want to get Trump!"
"And they don't care if they have to burn the entire country down in order to get Trump. That's what they want to do. And I think that it shows how STUPID that approach is politically, because normally you would expect the president of United States to get blamed for a shutdown."
"The American people were smart enough to recognize that the Democrats were the ones who were sort of holding this hostage."
"They were saying that unless you give us everything that we want, unless you give us $1.5 trillion of benefits, health care for illegal aliens, we're going to destroy the country. We're going to keep the government shut down indefinitely!"
So the Democrats, who've been feeding the abused monster under the stairs for decades, suddenly feel like they're being held hostage by the monster under the stairs that they've been feeding and telling said monster, "it's not our fault we have had to keep you under the stairs. It's THEIR fault over there..." That monster realizes it was a grotesque experiment in abuse and entitlement not by the right, but by the people it thought it could trust. When it starts to realize that the Democrat party IS STILL the party of racism and abuse that it always has been, but is unable to accept that fact, why would anyone be surprised they want to burn it all down.
Mary Shelley wasn't talking merely about humans, but also systems and govts in a way that wouldn't get her put in a deep dark prison.
Dr Frankenstein, the epitome of elitist god-wanna-be, chops of pieces of dead, discarded human beings and repurposes them, reanimated them, as if somehow the parts can become a whole with a soul that functions as God intended. It's an allegory on govt leaders that try to build a "new" conception of govt from the old, decayed and dead ideas of the past that looked good on paper but don't belong together, ALL for marketing. It's a con game, so they could cheat death and rob everyone even after they have died, because they don't want to earn what they have. They want to abuse others for it.
Now the Democrats, like other abusers before them, have created another feeding frenzy among those that they've robbed of morals to do their bidding for 70 years. The problem is that that the morals they've squeezed out of society with the help of the RINOs and CINOs, took reason with them. You can't put the cork back on the bottle once you've introduced more yeast.
No one should feel sorry for the Dems that got rich off of all of their abuses, nor the RINOs that actively benefit or passively sat on their hands to benefit from it themselves. As with the riots in 2020, it's not the elitists who pay the price. It's society that has unwittingly and unwillingly paid for the experiment to take place that suffers. Dr Frankenstein didn't suffer enough. Same for Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot, etc, etc, etc.
We've all forgotten that it's not justice nor the will of God that we should only harbor the law-breakers AFTER they commit crimes, feeding and housing those who did so brazenly and without regard for life. We are supposed to protect our neighbors from them. We are supposed to give the victim justice, so that more wickedness doesn't prosper in the land. We've done the exact opposite of what we were supposed to do, and we need to repent and correct these injustices by fixing this broken system that hurts the law-abiding and creates more criminals for profit.
