President Trump gobbled up the Democrat’s once-substantial share of working-class voters, and they’ll have to decide whether or not they want those voters back. Right now, the crumbling Democratic Party is united by little more than their mutual disdain for President Trump.

The malignant popularity of Waters’ irresponsible, unhinged, red-meat factory of political rhetoric is the worst thing that could have happened to the Democratic Party. Right now, the Left — enraged that Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election even after the entire media promised for months that she’d win — is ravenous for the most decadent “Democracy is over, and the president is illegitimate” ear candy.

You don’t have to be a carnival mystic examining the palms of 2020 Democrat presidential hopefuls to see where this is headed.

An oversupply of hysterical, anti-Trump rhetoric as each Democratic candidate tries to out-resist the person to his immediate left.

Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) —the Democrats’ unsuccessful 2016 VP candidate — recently threw some shade on Donald Trump, Jr. by intimating that he might have committed treason. Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) recently went viral for channeling Joe McCarthy and trying to steamroll Attorney General Jeff Sessions in his testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee. DNC chair Tom Perez has told cheering crowds that Trump “didn’t win the election,” and that he “has to go.”

If Democrats continue to follow the Auntie Maxine model of trading in facts for viral insults and pandering to the impeachment-happy, Russia-obsessed, anti-Trump resistance crowd instead of living up to their new slogan and offering solutions for the working class, they will continue the collapse that has relegated their party to minority status in every branch and every level of government.
