One would think Leftists would learn that one way to lose the next election is to disrespect voters in the last election. Disrespect for the 2016 Brexit Referendum certainly hurt both Labour and the LibDems in last week’s UK General Election. One would think that would be a learning experience.
One would think.
But no. The day after the election, Leftists took to UK streets to protest . . . what? Voters? Free elections? Those sort of anti-democratic temper tantrums might have sold in the Weimar Republic, but last I looked, most British prefer democracy with their Queen, thank you.
Oh, and here’s where Leftist whining gets beyond satire. The founders of Fusion GPS, purveyors of lies used in the perpetual coup against Trump, these scumbags are blaming . . . Russia. No I am not kidding:
The founders of Fusion GPS, the Democrat-backed consulting firm behind the famously discredited Christopher Steele dossier at the heart of the Russia hoax, are blaming Russia for the liberal Labour Party’s loss in the U.K. elections Thursday. Seriously….
“Britain needs its own Mueller report on Russian ‘interference,’” [Guardian] editors titled the article.
“The British political system has become thoroughly compromised by Russian influence,” Simpson and Fritsch declared. “In 2016, both the United Kingdom and the United States were the targets of Russian efforts to swing their votes.
But us in The Colonies had better not laugh too hard. For Democrats and Leftists (But I repeat myself.) are already making it known ahead of time that they have no intention of respecting the 2020 elections should Trump get re-elected. California Democrat Rep. Karen Bass, for one, says they just might impeach Trump yet again after 2020. And Democrat House Judiciary Chairman Nadler is openly saying the 2020 election will be rigged if Trump is not impeached and removed.
Yes, Americans might collude by voting to re-elect Trump. How dare they!
All this may amuse, but it should also disturb as well. For a major party again and again so to disrespect elections they don’t win is dangerous to a country. And that is the situation in the US and UK today.
This Leftist impulse against democracy and against the rights of political opponents makes me fear what will happen if and when Democrats or Labour do win. We must not let that happen at least until they transform themselves into parties that actually respect constitutional democracy, even when they don’t win.
