Democrat voters are becoming as anti-American as Democrat leaders

An interesting article on Issues & Insights begins with a remarkable anecdote, from a town hall meeting that a Democrat U.S. Representative had with her supporters (emphasis mine):

At a town hall meeting last week, Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez — one of the few moderate Democrats left in the world — made a perfectly common-sensical statement: “Americans believe that only U.S. citizens should be determining the outcome of American elections.”

She was greeted with a torrent of shouts, boos, and profanity, signs that said “shame” from her constituents, and was ushered out of room for “security reasons.”

Her statement would not appear to be controversial. Americans should decide American elections. Simple.

Surely her supporters would agree that Palestinians should decide Palestinian elections. And Danes should decide Danish elections. And Argentinians should decide Argentinian elections. So why are they so violently opposed to Americans deciding American elections?

This is something that has worried me for some time. Democrat voters seem to be becoming just as radical, and just as anti-American, as Democrat leaders.

The Democrat Party has always had a few Bernie / AOC types - left-wing ideologues who are so radical that they sound anti-American. That is not new.

But this seems new - when Democrat VOTERS sound radical and anti-American. Granted, this was just one isolated group, at this town hall. But Democrat voters have become increasingly violent recently, from the Black Lives Matter riots a few years ago to burning Teslas today.

I've said before that the Democrat Party has spent decades building something that they cannot control. And I think some Democrat leaders are probably starting to figure that out. Although if they think they can ride the hatred and radicalism back into power, I think they're willing to tolerate it for now.

Robespierre is probably nodding his head right now, with a grim smile on his face. This probably looks familiar to him.

Because the Democrats have built something that they cannot possibly control.

Hang on tight - you ain't seen nuthin' yet...
