People say the Blue Team is failing hard but I’m not so sure. I’d say they’re actually pulling off some pretty spectacular scams.

Most Dems, including their leadership, are paid to want whatever wars and genocides Israel wants. They owe their careers to AIPAC’s generosity. But Dems don’t generally want to have to say they are pro-war and pro-genocide. How do they solve this?

Biden didn’t want to have to say he was pro-war and pro-genocide. So he simply disappeared from public view for months. At least until his live Presidential debate, where everyone saw for themselves the level of intellect steering the ship.

Since the Trump/Republican landslide, Dems have a new strategy. As under Biden and Pelosi, Dems are still paid to want whatever wars and genocides Israel wants. And they still don’t want to say so. So now what they do is make sure Trump and Republicans get just enough votes. Then point at Trump when WW3 turns out to be unpopular.

In fact Dems are paid to pass all kinds of policies desired by their handful of wealthy donors that are opposed by their voters. But Dems don’t want to say they’re anti-democracy. So they make sure Republicans have just enough votes to pass whatever the wealthy donors want. Then point at Republicans as anti-democratic when these unpopular policies pass.

Dems are also paid by AIPAC to wage war on any American who disagrees with Israel’s wars and genocides. Politicians, news personalities, and their fans forbid discussing obvious facts. Like Israel being a racist apartheid state. Like Israel committing genocide and other war crimes with total impunity. Then they point at Trump for being “authoritarian.”

Dem politicians, Dem-leaning news personalities, and their fans forbid criticism of Israeli military policy. They also forbid criticism of Dem politicians who enable that policy. They call it “anti-Semitic.” In fact this is a systematic destruction of the term. What is actually anti-Semitic to say that Judaism is synonymous with Israeli military policy, and that murdering Muslims is simply part of the Jewish identity.

Dems are paid and advised by arms dealers, Big Tech, oil companies, and “national security experts” to make war. They just don’t want to say they’re pro-war. So they make sure Republicans have just enough votes to make war. Then point at Republicans when the wars are unpopular.

Dems are paid and advised to increase ICE funding. They just don’t want to say they’re pro-ICE. So they make sure Republicans have just enough votes to increase ICE funding. Then point at Republicans when ICE kidnaps or murders people.

Dems are paid by corporate donors to increase billionaire wealth. They just don’t want to say they’re pro-billionaire. So they make sure Republicans have just enough votes to increase billionaire wealth. Then point at Republicans when the policies are unpopular.

Dems are paid and advised to break the law. They are told that international laws do not apply to them. Nor do domestic laws governing the funding of war crimes. Nor do they apply to any U.S. politician or cabinet member or military commander or corporation. Such laws only apply to their enemies. But they don’t want to say they are criminals. So they make sure the Republicans have just enough votes to commit the crimes. Then point to Republicans as being criminal and unconstitutional.

Many Dems say they are pro-Israel but simply don’t like Netanyahu. They then fund all of Netanyahu’s policies no matter how criminal or genocidal. And would continue to fund the same policies no matter who was in power in Israel.

We are allowed to look at actual Dem platforms and voting records. We can see that there is a certain propaganda and financial advantage to losing elections, staying out of the hot seat, and blaming everything on Trump. We don’t have to be so gullible to Dem marketing. We can call a scam what it is.

Most current Dem politicians do not have any discernible beliefs. They want money. They want power.

If we actually oppose genocide, oil wars, ICE, AI, wealth inequality, and the destruction of democracy, then funneling money and votes back to the Dems is not automatically a good thing. Candidates should start earning their votes. It’s more important to look at a candidate's actual platform and record than their party affiliation. Americans need to get over their phobia of independent candidates and third parties. Dems who want to win need to develop the courage to say no to rich donors who constantly demand more war crimes, ICE, AI, crackdowns, racism and billionaire profit margins.

Some countries are starting to reject their equivalents of the Democratic Party. Many in Europe and the UK are throwing their enthusiasm and votes behind parties and candidates that align with popular views. We can make the same thing happen here. In fact some Dems are starting to reject donations from AIPAC and other unpopular billionaire-funded concerns. This is good trend that would not have been possible without intense, sustained pressure from the left. Thank you, the left.
