How Democrats Play the Game


Politics is nothing more than a game, almost always played by egotistical narcissists who mistakenly believe that they, and they alone, can solve the world's problems. Obviously, no single man or woman is capable of such a feat, armed only with their personal skills and intelligence. At best it would take a team of experts from around the world collaborating to solve our enormous global problems.

That's certainly not happening, but what's worse is that not even in our own country are the two warring political parties working in concert to improve our lives. Instead they spend most of their time and money on denigrating the opposing politicians, extinguishing hope of any solutions. 

The Democrats do this best, which is why they are currently in power. They are already taking aim with their biggest guns at Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, a sterling human being with an impressive record of serving the country since his days in the Navy. He also attended both Harvard and Yale and served as a congressman from 2013 to 2018. An accomplished lawyer and loving father and husband, he's extremely level-headed and bright. At the age of 46, he's hinted at running for president.

Instead of thinking that DeSantis could be an improvement over the doddering, stuttering, faltering geezer now holding that title, the petulant Democrats do nothing but tear him down at every opportunity, almost to a humorous degree. This morning I read an article in which a detainee at Guantanamo Bay, meaning an Islamist prisoner, said that while he was behind bars many years ago, DeSantis came through on a military inspection and "I could tell he's not a good guy." 

Are we now supposed to take the opinions of our prisoners of war about anyone who is not a Democrat? It's sick and twisted. Don't wait for it, there's no funny punchline.
