Non-Insanity Theories?

One theory about Nancy Pelosi’s actions yesterday is that she has gone insane. Removing that possibility for the time being, might any astute SDA readers have another plausible theory about why she has turned impeachment into a circus?

Not Nutritionally Woke Enough

We’ve known for a long time that us right-thinking individuals aren’t “woke” enough for our political betters in the Leftist Cult. Now Elizabeth Warren and some of her comrades in the media are trying to destroy a chain store called Dollar General that doesn’t match their Whole Foods expectations (or prices) that they’re used to.

Salena Zito has thoughts to contrary, both in print and in conversation with John Batchelor.

China signs Trade Deal with America

In what was described by many as impossible, early in this new year, China has signed a major trade deal with the U.S.:

The U.S. and China signed a trade deal that officials say will lead to a sharp increase in sales of U.S. goods and services to China, further open Chinese markets to foreign firms—especially in financial services—and provide strong new protections for trade secrets and intellectual property.

The eight-part agreement acts as a cease-fire in a two-year trade war that has roiled markets world-wide and cut into global growth. But it leaves in place U.S. tariffs on about $370 billion in Chinese goods, or about three-quarters of Chinese imports to the U.S.

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.
