Democrats Are Just Not Normal

Take that, little cop cancer kid! The Democrats sure showed him! No applause for you. How dare you be celebrated by the country when the president pointed you out from the lectern. Yeah, they showed him. They showed Donald Trump. They showed us all! The Democrats aren’t going to allow Donald Trump to be normalized! Nor kids with cancer! Nor foster parents of 40 kids. Nor victims of rape and murder by the Third World barbarians Democrats imported into the country. No, the party that thinks some women have penises isn’t going to normalize the party that doesn’t.

Their campaign to keep from normalizing Donald Trump has worked, but not exactly how they thought it would. They showed us that they’re not normal, that they’re weirdos, that they’re pretty much insane.

Or that they are stupid. Sometimes, stupid and insanity are hard to differentiate. But you can be sure that they’ve learned absolutely nothing. Tom Nichols, the expert on experts writing at “The Atlantic,” explained that “Democrats Are Acting Too Normal.” It’s not clear how they can be any weirder, but I’m sure they’ll give it the old communist college try. Remember, with Donald Trump, there are no rules. There are no norms. He’s that bad. He’s literally Hitler plus Putin all at the same time. Oh, and along with Elon Musk he wants to come and take your Social Security and buy some stuff at Target.

Obviously, this situation calls for drastic action. The Democrats must take a stand!

Applaud for a heroic orphan getting into West Point? No.

Applaud for finding and cutting waste in the federal budget? No.

Applaud for endless money given to ungrateful foreigners? Absolutely.

I don’t know who came up with the strategy of adopting only positions normal Americans hate, but it is sure a bold one. I’m eager to see how it works out for them. Maybe the idea is to be so annoying that we give up in the face of their relentless nincompoopery. But if Trump’s speech the other night was any indication, we’re just getting started.

And so are they. They seem intent on doubling down on dumb. When you get past the stupid costumes – I like how they wore pink to show support for women after unanimously showing support for men pretending to be women the day before – and their weird auction paddles and the bizarre writing on their clothes and that strange dude with the cane yelling at clouds, what’s really going on is that they reject the legitimacy of any possible faction having political power besides themselves. They have not accepted the results of the November election, and they are holding their breath really hard until maybe Trump just goes away. 

And they never will accept their loss. They can’t, because in the roiling psychodrama that passes for their political party, they are so wound up with the idea that anybody who deviates even a micrometer from their bizarre and perverted ideology is inherently evil and, therefore, cannot legitimately claim any power. The problem is that normal people don’t think that. Normal people still believe that when they elect a political party, that political party should get a chance to do what it does, and the other political party should honor some basic norms. But that’s not so for the Democrats. There are no other political parties. There are only the Democrats and the extreme ones at that. Everyone else is a Nazi. No one else can rule. This is known as “Our Democracy.” 

So, we get them ignoring basic traditions, like the leadership of both parties escorting the president into the joint session of Congress. The Democrats just didn’t show up for the walk-in, as if Donald Trump can’t be president, and if they just pretend he’s not hard enough, he will stop being president. But he’s not going to stop being president. He knows their game, and he called it to them right to their smug little faces. He told them that they wouldn’t applaud for anything he did, and these dummies took him up on it. To normal people, it looked insane. Here’s a heroic Border Patrolman who fought it out with the cartels! Silence. Nothing. Tumbleweeds. OK, normal people don’t act like that. Weirdos, losers, and mutations act like that. Crazy people act like that. The Democrats have a small group of leftist activists that they’re seeking to suck up to, and they’re sucking all right – they’re polling right there on par with foot fungus.

And as they register loss after loss, Donald Trump racks up win after win. Just on the day of the speech, Zelensky rolled over and cravenly crawled up to kiss his shoes. China and Mexico rolled over on tariffs. Because the regime media can only obsess over one or two stories at a time, Trump was busy firing people, confirming people, and DOGEing the hell out of the communist feed trough. They are helpless in the face of his onslaught, reduced to feeble and fussy protests that simply make them look stupid.

Noted nuclear physicist Jasmine Crockett decided to put out a rap video, of course. She dialed up the ghetto trashy to 11, and you could just see her daring people to point out her ghetto trashiness so she could cry racism. Well, she’s ghetto trashy, and since she already thinks you’re racist, you can say so without worrying. Maybe she will call you racister. In any case, who cares? All we Republicans can say is that we support Jasmine Crockett’s successful campaign to make an idiot of herself and to make bigger idiots of her party and that we hope to see a Tim Walz/Jasmine Crockett ticket in 2028. After all, these doofuses sum up the current Democrat Party. You’ve got a fey weirdo with a secret and a ridiculous, snarling stereotype as the face of the party. 

Well, there’s actually another face as well, the blank, boring, mid face of the Elissa Slotkins. She looks like that if she’s not on the verge of complaining to the manager, she’s going to complain to her husband about him watching football. How come they all look like her? The SSRI-ridden, Chardonnay-swilling, middle-aged white lib women are a curse upon humanity, but they are the key Democrat demo. I’m all for their party embracing that vibe – it went great for Hillary Clinton. Americans don’t want to be nagged to death by unhappy people whose only pleasure in life is pestering others. No one votes for his first wife.

These are such unhappy people. Take a look at these faces. They are vewy, vewy sewious, and they are so very disappointed in you. They probably spent the hour after Donald Trump’s epic long march of a speech high fiving each other, thinking they did great. They did not do great. Trump did. I loved it. My right-wing cronies dug it. But what mattered was when I got texts from people who don’t normally love politics. These are folks who look down on the whole enterprise as vaguely disgraceful, yet they loved it too.

Maybe it was because Trump was happy instead of grim, hysterical, and nuts. Happiness is the secret of America First. We’re happy people. We’re not always mad, we’re not always bitter, we’re not always complaining that everybody else is racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, and fatist. We enjoy life and want life to get better. And we have both the class and the commonsense to clap when a little cop cancer kid catches the spotlight.

Last night, Democrats showed their true colors. They’re not normal. They’re the weirdos. And honestly, they’re pretty much insane.
