Don’t look now, but Democrats suddenly have a white savior complex, lavishing love on a dude for being traditionally Caucasian and imitating Donald Trump

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

The combination of the artificiality and their sudden desire to champion beautiful, rich white people like Governor Gavin Newsom at least partially for being beautiful, rich, and white seems at odds with their decades long obsession with people of color and fear of the white savior complex There’s no doubt that California Governor Gavin Newsom… Continue reading Don’t look now, but Democrats suddenly have a white savior complex, lavishing love on a dude for being traditionally Caucasian and imitating Donald Trump

The self-proclaimed defenders of democracy aren’t defending anything close to what most people consider American democracy

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

Surely, any pretension of protecting democracy was fatally undermined by a call to rewrite the entire Constitution and related musings on why the military leadership hasn’t done more to undermine the Commander in Chief. Anyone who thinks irony is dead should consider the current progressive positions on the nature of democracy.  On one hand, they… Continue reading The self-proclaimed defenders of democracy aren’t defending anything close to what most people consider American democracy

Reminder: Democrats should love tariffs because they have wanted to raise taxes for years

Christian Twiste2 Comments

While we might forgive politicians for a little politicking, it’s more than a little ironic for Democrats to abandon a core tenet of their philosophy and pretend higher taxes haven’t been a long term goal. On December 1, 2010, Alan Simpson and Erskine Bowles concluded President Barack Obama’s National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform… Continue reading Reminder: Democrats should love tariffs because they have wanted to raise taxes for years

Democrats can’t have it both ways on President Trump, simultaneously smearing him and demanding he treat them with something less than the contempt they themselves reek

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

Why they seem to believe they can simultaneously slander him and expect him to treat them as partners in government remains a mystery that flies in the face of political history and human nature.  Earlier this week, Democrats were outraged at President Donald Trump for two reasons, one completely inconsequential, the other quite consequential, nicely… Continue reading Democrats can’t have it both ways on President Trump, simultaneously smearing him and demanding he treat them with something less than the contempt they themselves reek

The Iranian Gamble

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

Military conflict is never without risk, but if the media was championing our ability to prevent Iran from striking last year, why are they not doing so now and why are mainstream outlets seemingly silent on the role other Arab nations are playing and how it seems the overall tide in the region is rapidly… Continue reading The Iranian Gamble

Speaking to American Men: If Vice President Al Gore’s attempt to portray himself as an Alpha male in 2000 is any indication, history repeats itself, though sometimes it’s always a farce

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

As Democrats pour $20 million into an effort to “study the syntax, language and content that gains attention and virality in the spaces” male voters frequent, remember that 25 years ago, a Presidential candidate attempted to rebrand himself in a similar way to laughable results. Way back in 1999, Presidential candidate and sitting Vice President… Continue reading Speaking to American Men: If Vice President Al Gore’s attempt to portray himself as an Alpha male in 2000 is any indication, history repeats itself, though sometimes it’s always a farce

Trump’s electoral triumph is even more astounding than previously thought, or so says the New York Times

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

For years, the media has assumed that demography is destiny, that a more diversified country would lead to an ascendant Democrat Party while reducing Republicans to an ineffectual rump.  President Trump has proven them completely, catastrophically wrong, doing what they would have said was impossible. After President Donald Trump’s stunning victory last year, I described… Continue reading Trump’s electoral triumph is even more astounding than previously thought, or so says the New York Times

Bruce Springsteen and the now purely performative Resistance

Christian Twiste3 Comments

What’s the point of prefacing what’s supposed to a celebration of rock and roll, perhaps Mr. Springsteen’s final run considering he will turn 76 later this year, with a political diatribe of largely recycled talking points? Last week, legendary singer, songwriter, and all-around-rocker, Bruce Springsteen chose to open his European “Land of Hope and Dreams”… Continue reading Bruce Springsteen and the now purely performative Resistance

This revolution requires private jets and billionaire backers, apparently

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

Senator Bernie Sanders prefers private jets to flying coach for the people and the heir to the Hyatt fortune is now a frontrunner in the new resistance while Democrats outraise and outspend their Republican counterparts from shady big donors. It seems some billionaires and associated luxuries are more equal than others. Last week, democratic socialist… Continue reading This revolution requires private jets and billionaire backers, apparently

Why Democrats and progressives can’t be taken seriously under any circumstances

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

The great majority of what Democrats claim today, the issues they suddenly consider of the utmost importance, were either ignored or outright lied about throughout recent history beginning with the mental capabilities of President Biden himself, what we might consider the original sin from which all loss of credibility flows.  While the opposition party opposes… Continue reading Why Democrats and progressives can’t be taken seriously under any circumstances
