The Leftist’s Dilemma in 2020

If you’re a rational person in the West today, you should feel pretty darn good. For we’ve reached a point where all NATO countries are essentially protected by the military umbrella provided by the United States Armed Forces. Furthermore, President Donald Trump has demonstrated on multiple occasions that he has no interest in engaging in regime-change wars. But he has also indicated that he won’t tolerate any bullies crossing the proverbial red line, especially when their actions directly effect the lives of Americans.

Please take a moment to conduct two thought experiments. First, imagine that a Democrat president had been in charge and done exactly the same things that Trump has done. Would there be any complaints?

Second, and this one is much more difficult for anyone who takes pride in the clarity of their thinking: Return to today’s reality but put yourself in the mind of a Leftist. Think carefully about the events that have transpired in the Middle East so far this year. Summoning your strongest TDS thoughts, why, oh why, would you possibly be angry at Donald Trump over what has transpired? Are you mad at him because his strategy worked when you were convinced it wouldn’t? Are you mad at him because America DIDN’T GO TO WAR over the missile attacks from Iran last night? Are you mad at him because all of your suspicions and fears didn’t come true, you’re too embarrassed to let this reality creep into your mind and challenge your world view, so sticking to “Orange Man Bad” is simply easier?

Millions, possibly billions of Leftists the world over are devoutly angrier at Trump today than they were on December 31st. Why, SDA reader, why?!?

Sargon of Akkad has just released a very insightful video on this very subject.

Now Is The Time At SDA When We Juxtapose!

April 18, 1943: Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto’s airplane was shot down by US Army Air Forces fighters as part of Operation Vengeance. Yamato’s body was found the next day on Bougainville Island. “It raised morale in the United States and shocked the Japanese, who were officially told about the incident only on May 21, 1943.”

January 3, 2020: Iranian General Qasem Soleimani was killed at Baghdad International Airport by multiple missiles launched from a US MQ-9 Reaper drone after he left his plane and entered a vehicle. Soleimani was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of US service personnel, and countless other people around the Arab world. In the aftermath of his death, endless Democrats and media pundits have condemned US President Trump for authorizing this drone strike.

Who? or Who Cares? It’s difficult to figure out which is the more pertinent question with regard to Julian Castro.

Related: It’s clear that most registered Democrats are ardent racists. Really racist.

When Will Rachel Maddow Be Fired?

More from the National Review:

Like other prime-time cable news hosts who receive much more criticism, Maddow shows up every weeknight and tells a devoted audience, “the world is as you want it to be.” Trump is the worst, he’s committed many terrible crimes, a reckoning is coming, we will be vindicated. Her audience is not interested in hearing the host or guests declare: “While we are vehemently opposed to Trump, but there is no evidence he’s being blackmailed or controlled by the Russian government.” Her program includes bits of news and other substances that appear to be like news, but are not — fervent speculation, conjecture, assumptions, theories. If it is too harsh to call it “fake news,” then it is news with artificial flavors and sweeteners, designed to make it more exciting and appealing than it really is.
