The Democrats in crisis: Schumer and Pelosi at each other’s throats

American Thinker:

The two and half years of TDS mass psychosis inside the Democratic Party since November 2016 are taking a toll.  Trump Derangement Syndrome would already be recognized as a mental illness in an updated DSM-5 if the psychiatric profession were to magically shift into bias for conservatism instead for the Left, but even without the blessing of the shrinks, it is real, and it is taking a toll on the Democrats.

Normally, the Democrats exercise a degree of party discipline that Republicans can only envy.  And their friends in the mainstream media love to highlight tensions within the Republican coalition while ignoring donkey conflicts.  Within the party, “solidarity forever” isn’t just a tune that union bosses lead their members in singing; it is a philosophy that, for instance, causes Democrat black political leaders to embrace unlimited illegal immigration, even as it harms the interests of the lower-skilled workers by suppressing wages.

So what are we to make of this, coming from Mike DeBonis and Rachel Bade of the Washington Post, the most plugged in news source when it comes to the Democrats:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told her colleagues in a private meeting Thursday that she thought she had a deal this week with her longtime ally, Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer: She would ensure passage of a more liberal border funding bill in the House, and he would back her up by persuading Democratic senators to fight for it.

Instead, Pelosi (D-Calif.) said, she was blindsided. Nearly all Senate Democrats voted for a Republican-backed bill that kneecapped the House and marked the most embarrassing defeat for Pelosi in the six months since Democrats took over the chamber. MORE

  1. …never think they won’t make time to plot against US just because of some internecine spat…

    {Sam and Frodo, after witnessing a pair of Orcs that were hunting them quarrel, with one orc shooting another through the eye “neat as neat” then running away)

    “For a while the hobbits sat in silence. At length Sam stirred. ‘Well, I call that neat as neat,’ he said. ‘If this nice friendliness would spread about in Mordor, half our trouble would be over.’

    ‘Quietly, Sam,’ Frodo whispered. ‘There may be others about. We have evidently had a very narrow escape, and the hunt was hotter on our tracks than we guessed. But that is the spirit of Mordor, Sam; and it has spread to every corner of it. Orcs have always behaved like that, or so all tales say, when they are on their own. But you can’t get much hope out of it. They hate us far more, altogether and all the time. If those two had seen us, they would have dropped all their quarrel until we were dead.’”

    -JRR Tolkien, “The Return of the King”

    Look at the last line…

    “If those two had seen us, they would have dropped all their quarrel until we were dead”

    …and tell me this doesn’t sound like standard Democrat behavior, whether in the streets of Baltimore or the halls of Congress.

    …But THIS one REALLY crystallizes the Democrat attitue towards the President and those who dared vote for him…

    “They hate us far more, altogether and all the time.’

    …and the more so NOW, that we defied them and their chosen Queen, and our failure to accept the works of their Dark Lord “Obama” as being written in stone.

    …Let’s hope we can have as happy an ending to OUR Dark lord as they did THEIRS…

  5. The socialists’ bloodbaths always occur AFTER victory.
    The National Socialist “Night of the Long Knives” the Soviet “Purges” the Chi-Coms “Hundred Flowers” – all were socialists killing socialists – the Oligarchs cementing their positions by eliminating “deviationists.”

    This is a minor tactical skirmish which won’t even begin to impede the jack-booted march to socialism.

  11. What you are witnessing is the deliberate and systematic dismantling of the Democrat political machine. Trump is doing EXACTLY what I have called for for three decades. Just stand your ground and face them down. Never concede good intentions and never compromise on extremism from them. Stay out of the way while they are going nuts trying to crack the code and instead of compromising hold your ground and let their proposal die on the vine causing infighting and the far left getting even more desperate and digging in while their “voice of reason” has nothing to placate them with to hold up as a scalp.

    The man is a master at trolling for suckers.

  14. I don’t like to comment just to see my voice in print but I only try to do it when I don’t see anyone else pointing something out.

    In this case, the story last night was that “Schumer gave away the Democrats’ leverage” on a border deal. So long as everyone understands that what they are saying is that creating a humanitarian crisis on our border is meant to exert leverage to get Open Borders, all that free illegal healthcare and college that every single Dem candidate for President said they supported, etc.

    Sandy Cortez organizing boycotts of companies trying to make detained illegal border jumpers more comfortable. Printing up blood libel editorial cartoons of Trump wanting to play golf on the corpses of the Mexican asshole who dragged his 23 month old daughter through a fucking desert and died trying to illegally cross the Rio Grande.

    That’s their leverage. This is their Reichstag Fire to facilitate Open Borders and ending the US being a country at all. Happy face with a Hitler moustache.
