Another week, and another attempt on the life of President Trump.

For how many years have I been saying on these pages that Democrats are brain damaged; caught in the throes of what I call delusions of rectitude, the unshakable belief that whatever they believe is right, and whoever disagrees with them is wrong.  This mental disorder is the reason why telling facts to a so-called Progressive is an exercise in futility.  Because they’re always right about everything, facts are meaningless to this crowd.

This week, I was pleased to see that somebody agrees with me.  Greg Gutfeld hit two points that I’ve been making for years.   Commenting on the most recent attempt on President Trump’s life, on The Five, Gutfeld noted that Democrats have been fomenting violence against the President by calling him fascist, Hitler, and an existential threat to democracy for 10 years.  Gutfeld said, “the Left thinks it’s always right.”  It’s what I call liberal answer Number One.  Tell them a fact and they say, “That’s not true.”

Gutfeld also had it out with the two, interchangeable and irrelevant, Democrats on the show, rejecting the Democrat talking point, that I’ve been calling for years, Liberal Answer Number Two.  “Both sides do it.”  More about that later.

Democrats have said Trump should be in a bullseye, Trump should be targeted, Trump is an fascist, Trump must be taken out by any means necessary, Trump will cancel the midterm elections, Trump is a puppet of the Russians, Trump is insane, Trump is dehumanizing people, Trump is putting people in concentration camps, Trump is a pedophile, Trump is a rapist, and a racist.  According to Democrats, Trump also is both a warmonger and a coward, apparently because he both uses too much force, and fails to use enough force.

Every one of the above charges against Trump is a lie.  But as President Harry Truman, a member of what used to be a sane Democrat Party once observed of an opponent, “He’ll never tell the truth when a simple lie will do.”  And what Democrats have going for them today is that they know, whatever lie they choose to tell, the lap dog media will swear to it, spreading it 24 hours a day into the ears of people who still are under the impression that the media tells them the truth.

The fact is, for years Democrats have all but begged their lunatic followers to use violence against the president.  In addition to all the networks, MSNow, CNN, countless left wing supposed news websites, and the heifers of The View, there’s a social media (or is it anti-social media) outlet called Bluesky that’s constantly stirring the pot.  Bluesky was started by Rasputin lookalike, Jack Dorsey, when he left Twitter.  Many celebrities and pseudo-celebrities went there when Elon Musk bought Twitter and named it X.

The celebrities migrated to Bluesky because they were upset by the fact that Musk was permitting differing opinions to be shared on X.  That was painful to the Left, who have no use for dissent, since they’ve already decided they’re right.  Who are some of the most followed entities and people on Bluesky?  AOC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, Brian Stelter, George Takei, Rachel Maddow, Steven King, George Conway, Il Duce Obama, The Lincoln Project, Adam Kinzinger, Bernie Sanders, Jasmine Crockett, and Mark Hamill, which is fitting, because this crowd could reenact the Bar Scene from Star Wars.

Once you’ve convinced your mindless followers that Trump is an insane second coming of Adolph Hitler, who’s to say it’s wrong to kill such an existential threat?  And we’ve seen the results.  In Butler, Pennsylvania, where an assassin shot Trump and three others.  In Palm Beach, Florida, where an armed kook lay in wait for Trump in a sniper’s nest.  At Mar a Lago, where another armed kook tried to breach the wall, carrying a can of gasoline.  And Saturday night, at the Washington Correspondents’ dinner.

Every time it’s happened, there’s been a call for Democrats to turn down the violence inciting rhetoric.  And every time, it’s fallen on deaf ears.  The response from Democrats always is, “Trump started it.”  Apparently, Democrats are content to “finish it” with rifles, pistols, knives, and arson.”

In the immediate aftermath of a crazed gunman, storming the Washington Hilton ballroom, shooting a Secret Service agent before being captured, forcing more than 2,000 people to take cover under tables, forcing Melania Trump to crawl to safety behind the dais, and forcing the evacuation of the room and cancellation of the event, it was hoped that, having shared such a harrowing experience, members of the media might moderate their coverage of the President.  You know, maybe cut back from 95% lies and attacks, to 50 or 60%.  No such luck.

They instead exhibited the same conduct I see day in and day out practicing criminal law.  In the excitement of the moment, they tell the truth, but then, when the excitement wears off, they revert to, “What crime?”  “I didn’t see anything.”  And the ever popular, “That’s not true, you’re making it up.”

The incident happened Saturday night.  By Sunday, Bluesky had the talking points ready to go.  “What crime?”  “The whole thing was staged,  just like that time in Butler.”  “It was a publicity stunt.”  “The Mossad did it.” And my personal favorite, “It was done just to distract from Epstein.” (They didn’t say if they meant Jeffrey Epstein or Juan Epstein from Welcome Back Kotter).  And the leftist nuts took this crap and began spreading it.  They even sobered up Rosie O’Donnell long enough to have her call it “a fake assassination attempt.”

As I keep telling you, it’s brain damage.  Even after having been subjected to the treatment the President’s been getting for years, the media still isn’t convinced.  And there’s no need for them to moderate their tone.  Jamie Raskin was asked about the Democrats’ “heated rhetoric” on Sunday.  His response, “What heated rhetoric did you have in mind?”

Well, how about these, from the likes of Hakeem Jeffries, Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, members of the Squad, and others? “We need maximum warfare against Trump;” “There should be uprisings all over the country;” “He’s an enemy of the State;” “We’re still gonna have to go out and put a bullet in Trump;” “He’s a domestic enemy;” “I will go and take out Trump tonight.”  Nah, that’s not heated.  After all, we’re always right and he’s always wrong.

Gutfeld also laid to rest the use of liberal answer Number Two, “Both sides do it.”  Gutfeld pointed out that violence is far more prevalent on the left than it is on the right.  Polling shows that more than 25% of those calling themselves, very liberal say that political violence is justified to get what you want.  And what they want is Trump gone.

But Jessica Tarlov and Harold Ford, Jr., the two unnecessary Democrats on The Five, tried the “both sides” excuse.  Gutfeld wasn’t having it. “DON’T PLAY THAT BULLSHIT WITH ME!” “We don’t care about your ‘both sides’ argument. That shit is DEAD!”  “On your side, your beliefs do not match reality so you’re coming up with these rationalizations.  What about this, what about that?  We are NOT doing that because we saw it happen.  We saw a young bright man ASSASSINATED and we know who did it.  The media is DEAD to us on this story.  They built this thing up.  We are dealing with it, we are going to act.  We don’t care what the what about is anymore, that SHIT is dead!”  Amen, brother.

It certainly looks like the calls for violence against the President are not going to stop.  Even when the leftist provocateurs themselves are put in harms way by their own rhetoric, the trauma can’t rouse them into a lucid interval.  Sadly, they’re still crazy after all these years.
