For the last decade, we have heard Democrats call Donald Trump and his supporters every name in the book, with the most popular being a comparison to Nazi Germany.
Well, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) just flipped the script on Democrats by calling them “legislative terrorists.”
Now, Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) is having a meltdown over Johnson's turnabout.
First, let’s set the table with some comments made by our friends on the left.
Longtime Democratic Party strategist James Carville, this week, stated, “You know what we do with collaborators? My fantasy dream is that this nightmare ends in 2029. I think we ought to have radical things. I think they all ought to have their heads shaved.”
He continued, “They should be put in orange pajamas and marched down Pennsylvania Avenue, and the public should be invited to spit on them. All of these collaborators should be shaved, pajama-clad, and spat on.”
So, if you are conservative and get spit on while walking down the street, you can thank him.
Then there is Democrat Texas State Rep. Jolanda Jones, who talked about “wiping out” Republicans and made a throat-cutting gesture when discussing how to get rid of them.
She stated, “I’m from the hood, okay? So when a bully comes, like, if there are no rules, you literally have to figure it out. So, Donald Trump has changed things, and people trying to do what’s always been done is not going to work. And I think that’s why Democrats are losing black people, that’s why they’re losing poor people, because poor people, all they want is for us to fight.”
Jones continued, “So if you hit me in my face, I’m not going to punch you back in your face, I’m going to go across your neck, because we can go back and forth fighting each other’s faces. You’ve got to hit hard enough where they won’t come back.”
When she was later asked about her comments, she replied, “If you grew up in the hood like me, that’s the fastest way, literally, to be killed. … My brother was murdered, my aunt was murdered, my cousin was murdered. My dad blew his brains out. So, I come from a different world where everything isn’t so pretty like the Democrats want. Sometimes sh*t is ugly. And you’ve got to be able to fight ugly.”
That brings us to Johnson, who said he will keep the House shut because he is not going to cave to Democrats who are acting like “legislative terrorists.”
Jeffries then had the audacity to state, “That type of language is reckless, it’s irresponsible, and it’s going to get someone killed. What do these folks not understand as it relates to the language that they continue to use?”
He continued, “We should be able to battle it out in the contest of ideas as opposed to trying to use these extreme terms that have been unleashed on the American people from the very beginning of this presidency, and, as a matter of fact, for a long period of time, by the current president and those sycophants who continue to do nothing more than rubber stamp his extreme agenda and hurt the American people."
He has to be kidding, right? His party has referred to Trump as a “wannabe Hitler,” “Nazi,” “fascist,” etc., and he has not decried any of those comments, but now he wants to go after Johnson for his statement. To quote Joe Biden, “Give me a break, man!”
