clown-Schumer: Turmp Gave Putin a
Pat on The Back for Undermining U.S. Elections
{ rickwells.us } ~ At a press conference on Tuesday, Senate Minority Leader Chuck clown-Schumer, said that at his meeting in Helsinki with Russian President Vladimir Putin... President Donald J. Trump gave Putin “a pat on the back” for undermining America’s elections. At the U.S. Capitol on July 17, CNSNews.com asked Senator clown- Schumer, “liar-nObama’s CIA Director scumbag-John Brennan said that President Trump’s press conference in Helsinki ‘rises to and exceeds the threshold of high crimes and misdemeanors’ and was ‘nothing short of treasonous.’ Do you agree with scumbag- Brennan that Trump’s actions were treasonous?” clown-Schumer did not directly answer the question but said, “President Trump undercut our intelligence, elevated a brutal dictator who’s taking advantage of the United States, and maybe most importantly, refused to confront President Putin — worse, sort of gave him a pat on the back for undermining our elections.”... The clown needs to get his facts straight.

The Incredible Inauthenticity
of commie-Bernie Sanders
by Daniel Greenfield
{ sultanknish.blogspot.com } ~ "Open borders? No, that's a Koch brothers proposal," commie-Bernie Sanders snapped. "You're doing away with the concept of a nation state, and I don't think there's any country in the world that believes in that."
"What right-wing people in this country would love is an open-border policy,” he continued. "You know what youth unemployment is in the United States of America today? If you're a white high school graduate, it's 33 percent, Hispanic 36 percent, African American 51 percent. You think we should open the borders and bring in a lot of low-wage workers, or do you think maybe we should try to get jobs for those kids?"
That was three years ago.
commie-Bernie’s final surrender came after dodging a question on CNN about abolishing ICE. After the backlash, he went even further, issuing a statement urging that we "abolish the cruel, dysfunctional immigration system we have today”. Open borders had gone from a right-wing position to a commie-Bernie position.
commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, commie-Bernie's rare successful socialist candidate, had already told Al Jazeera that, "We should grant people a safe and documented right of passage".
"Republicans try all these scare tactics. And they go ‘Oh, open borders.’ Because they’re trying to incite fear," she added.
commie-Bernie’s immigration flip flop didn’t actually take three years.
After the backlash from the open borders interview, he adopted contemporary leftist positions. His platform was full of boilerplate language about Republican "anti-immigrant and xenophobic hysteria", mass amnesty for 11 million illegal aliens and ending the "militarization" of the border.
That was the new position of the candidate who once told MSNBC, “I don't think there is any candidate for president -- none -- who thinks that we should open up the borders.” The platform appears on the same commie-Bernie site where an old article dubs open borders a “trendy libertarian idea” and calls for improving the economies of other countries so that their immigrants don’t come to America.
Even people who don’t like commie-Bernie Sanders think that he honestly believes what he says. His views, they imagine, are so extreme that he might be wrong, but he must be authentic. But commie-Bernie’s actual record reveals a pattern of cowardly flip-flopping in response to political pressure from the left.
commie-Bernie 2.0, the formerly poor politician who has earned over $1 million for two years running, is a very different political animal than the crusty old socialist that liar-nObama’s old lefty allies dug up in Vermont.
The left’s favorite Senator owes his seat to the NRA. He voted against the Brady Bill and was listed as the only non-Republican among the 25 top recipients of money from gun-rights groups. liar-Hillary Clinton quickly zeroed in on gun control as commie-Bernie’s weakness. And his response to her was praised by the NRA. And then, as usual, the flip-following followed the leftist backlash in the media and on social media.
After telling the New York Daily News that firearms manufacturers shouldn’t face lawsuits from victims of crimes committed with firearms, he flipped his answer completely around at the debate. It only took a few weeks for commie-Bernie to go from, "No, I don't" to "They have a right to sue, and I support them."
These days commie-Bernie is hanging out with David Hogg and blaming a “three letter word” for gun violence.
“It’s the NRA,” commie-Sanders recently sneered. “And it’s Trump and the Republicans who don’t have the guts to stand up to these people and that’s pretty pathetic."
But it’s commie-Bernie who is too pathetically gutless to stand up to the bullying of his own political radicals.
In 2014, commie-Bernie Sanders got into a shouting match at a town hall over his condemnation of Hamas. Two years later, he falsely claimed that Israel had killed 10,000 innocent people in Gaza. These days his public statements on the subject are often little better than Hamas propaganda.
commie-Bernie 2.0 was shaped by a series of confrontations with key dummycrats-Democrat constituencies that sliced away whatever was authentic about him and left him one step closer to being a generic dummycrats-Democrat.
Black Lives Matter activists harassed commie-Bernie Sanders until he adopted their platform. So did illegal alien activists. He sparred with the Human Rights Campaign, the leading gay rights lobby, and Planned Parenthood. Each confrontation followed a familiar pattern, a surly response from the commie-Sanders campaign, followed by a quiet capitulation and a loud affirmation.
After running against an inauthentic politician with a wet finger in the wind, commie-Bernie took on all her traits.
But commie-Bernie is very different than liar-Hillary. While liar-Hillary Clinton was her own woman, commie-Bernie is a puppet. Revolution Messaging plucked him out of obscurity because they couldn’t get Elizabeth dinky-Warren. Lefty consultants frozen out by the liar-Clinton campaign and book publishers made millions off commie-Bernie.
commie-Bernie also cashed in. He’s up to three homes and has joined the 1 percent. His wife and stepkids have their own cozy arrangements. Officially he’s the leader of a movement. The reality is he’s a brand.
The inept Vermont socialist isn’t actually leading a movement. He’s just the face of one.
That movement, whose key figures are people like scumbag-Keith Ellison and commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, have little in common with who commie-Bernie was. The old socialist had tapped into traditional lefty strains in New England politics. His movement is top heavy with urban diversocrats like Ben Jealous and Stacey Abrams. It hasn’t tapped into anything except the radicalization and narrow identity politics of the dummycrats-Democrats.
commie-Bernie Inc. helped mainstream the use of socialism. But despite the tingly feeling that saying, “Socialism” gave the left, its pitch isn’t all that more socialist than the dummycrats-Democrats already are. Buying minority votes with freebies has been the elevator pitch of the dummycrats-Democrats since LBJ. Free college isn’t some radical new idea. It’s a failed plan by Jerry Brown’s dad from back when commie-Bernie was a deadbeat.
Despite the socialist moniker, commie-Bernie hasn’t pushed anything too radical for the lefty billionaire Pulosi donors who actually run the party. His movement isn’t trying to replicate commie-Bernie. Instead it made him over in its image and is propping him up, Weekend at commie-Bernie’s style, as the figurehead for a movement built on trendy lefty identity politics causes that its namesake has trouble keeping up to date on.
The same candidate who dismissed identity politics has come to be defined by them. His economic message is funneled through the usual victim groups and the medium has become the message. commie-Bernie, an old white leftist, is the awkward public face of a movement that puts forward minority leftists for political office, even as its base remains as white as commie-Bernie’s hair.
commie-Bernie Inc. bets on the ethnic and racial nationalism of local constituencies with the big wins coming from harnessing the Latino and African-American votes that eluded commie-Bernie during the primaries. That’s whycommie-Bernie is now for open borders, drug dealers, Hamas and gun control. commie-Bernie’s old socialism has been streamlined to match the safe identity politics of the dummycrats-Democrat multicultural coalition.
The media’s sudden love affair with commie-Cortez is also a warning that the commie-Bernie Sanders brand is shaky. Even Revolution Messaging, the original wizards behind the curtain, only took him because they couldn’t find anyone better. And commie-Bernie has been careful to remain surrounded by even less charismatic figures.
commie-Bernie Inc. is a typical leftist organization, militantly loud, internally poisonous, virtue signaling its altruism while really being motivated by conventional greed, clumsily mismanaged and yet aspiring to absolute power. Its figurehead is angry and erratic. A fraud who has sold his soul for ego and cash.
commie-Bernie will never have his revolution. He’s flip-flopped so many times that even he can’t keep track of his compromises and betrayals. And the one thing that everyone thinks is true about him is a lie.
He’s not authentic and doesn’t stick to his beliefs. Instead he traded them for a seat in the 1 percent.
