The Democrats are right it IS a Trap but not the one They Think

Suddenly a few Democrats are arguing that the reflexive opposition to Trump’s move to clean up DC is a trap for them from Mika Brzezinski and Chris Matthews:

To Maureen Dowd:

“I have no doubt that Trump enjoys targeting Democratic-controlled cities for embarrassment,” Powell writes. “I also have little doubt that a mother in Ward 8 might draw comfort from a National Guard soldier standing watch near her child’s school.”

The diva of distraction is putting on a show. (They’re eating the cats and the dogs!) But progressives should not fall into Trump’s trap and play down crime, once more getting on the wrong side of an inflammatory issue. As with inflation, they should remember that personal experiences can count more than sanguine statistics.

Even if Trump is being diabolical, Democrats should not pretend everything is fine here. Because it’s not.

The truth is they are half right, this IS a trap for the Democrats but NOT the one they think.

They think the trap is to try and get them to object to Trump’s actions while they are taking place and that is a bit of a trap making them look pro-criminal but that’s not the real trap.

The REAL trap is the vote on extending Trump’s DC time beyond 30 days and what happens next.

You see the Democrats are not likely to extend Trump’s time in DC when they keep calling him another “Hitler” or a “Totalitarian” etc etc etc so it seems unlikely that they will allow him to keep up the job and/or finish it.

What follows after they reject it IS the trap.

You see if I was a criminal in DC and I had the ability to go to ground for a month or so that’s what I’d be doing now. I’d keep a low profile and head for the hill until Trump’s folks are gone or until I couldn’t afford to do so or relocate.

But once the regular crowd is back in DC then it’s business as usual, that’s the trap:

  • What happens in DC, particularly in the black areas once Trump people leave the the Democrats who run this city go back to not policing the gangs?
  • What happens to DC once the graffiti goes back up on the monuments?
  • What happens to DC when the addicts and the homeless camps and the needles are back?
  • What happens to DC when the subways are once again not safe?
  • What happens the first time a tourist is mugged or beaten or killed after Trump goes away?

You see it was one thing when the residents were resigned to this situation and convinced it could not change, but what happens when they’ve had a full month of feeling safe in their city for the first time in years thank to Trump and then have it taken away thanks to the Democrats? What happens when they KNOW their city can be safe and the Democrats just won’t make it safe?

That’s the trap. It’s the kind of trap that changes votes and political alignments.

Now the Democrats have two ways to solve this dilemma:

  1. Extend Trump’s time in DC
  2. Actually crack down on crime.

If they do the first the wacko base will punish them severely for it, if they do the second then at best the people ask: “Why weren’t you doing this before?” and at worst they don’t get paid by the criminals or can’t use them for political purposes (which is what I think is actually the reason for what was going on).

It will be very interesting to see which path they choose to take. Let me give them this clue:

The right thing is generally the smart thing.

Are the Democrats Owned by BIG CRIME?

Don Corleone: It’s true I have a lot of friends in politics, but they wouldn’t be so friendly if they knew my business was drugs instead of gambling which they consider a harmless vice. But drugs, that’s a dirty business.The Godfather 1972

.

Since my teenage years whenever the GOP backed the US military the Democrats & media cried: “The GOP is owned by the Defense industry.” or BIG DEFENSE

For as long as I can remember whenever the GOP pushed for oil exploration and more leases to drill the Democrats and the media cried: “The GOP is owned by Big Oil!”

All my life whenever the GOP pushed to drop regulations to help US business’ grow or opposed foolish minimum wage hikes the Democrats and the media cried “The GOP is owned by Big Business.”

All my life whenever a republican president made any move favorable to the drug companies the Democrats and the Media cried “The GOP is owned by Big Pharma!”

Now over the last 10 years we see in city after city controlled by Democrats the coddling of criminals, letting dangerous people off, or giving them light sentences or releasing them early. We see them defending illegal aliens, gang members, those who vandalize and take over colleges and when things get so bad that Trump activates troops in LA and then uses his power to call out the national guard to help police DC, a federal area we see the entire Democrat party and media cry fowl.

So we have an obvious question to ask:

By their own standards should we be crying: “The Democrats are owned by Big Crime?”

Or to put it more bluntly:

Why Should we not assume that the Democrat party in general and local Democrat officials in particular are not being paid off by the Cartels and/or local criminal elements to protect them?

Maybe Don Corleone would have been Sollozzo a different answer if he lived today.

There are so many surprises in life, alas these days, this isn’t one of them:

And neither is this:

Nor is this:

Ok this is a little surprising:

Not that the bill was phony, but that he admitted it publicly

And finally this:

I do confess there was a time when that one would have surprised me, but not anymore.

The Immigration Solution: ENFORCE THE LAW

Captain Jean Luc Picard: Professor, this situation is more serious than you realize. In less than five hours, those two planets will collide and a new star will form. Unless we move to a safe distance, this vessel will be destroyed.
Professor James Moriarty: I’m just a fictional character. I haven’t much to lose.
Captain Jean Luc Picard: But surely you wish to live like the rest of us?
Professor James Moriarty: Not alone. Not without the Countess.
Captain Jean Luc Picard:: We’ve discussed that. We are studying means of bringing her safely off the holodeck. But five hours is not enough time.
Professor James Moriarty: I’m not so sure. A deadline has a wonderful way of concentrating the mind.

Star Trek The Next Generation Ship in a Bottle 1993

We are Less than 10 months from the presidential election and that deadline has, in the wonderful way a deadline does, suddenly focused the mind of the left to the point where they are afraid that their open boarder policy plan to replace the existing electorate with one that might support them with the financial help our our enemies might actually produce an election backlash beyond the margin of fraud and remove them from power.

Since power is the primary goal of both the left and the deep state that tolerates them a “compromise” bill was put together. Said bill was crafted behind closed door because such a bill debated openly could not stand the scrutiny of light and then released all at once with billions of funding for all kinds of things that have nothing to do with the border, but a lot to do with the left’s objectives tossed in.

Alas in this computer age it didn’t take long for the text of the bill to be examined and the various provisions including allowing thousands to cross illegally daily, money to the left’s NGO’s we now have the spectacle of democrats DEMANDING the bill be passed at once and claiming that the GOP is not serious about the border if they don’t play along.

Now there of course is a very obvious solution to the problem at the border and that solution is this:

Enforce the already existing laws.

If the already existing laws are enforced the border problem is solved, however such an approach is not acceptable to the democrat left for some simple reasons:

  1. It doesn’t give sufficient opportunities for graft
  2. It doesn’t provide billions for their priorities that they can’t get passed otherwise
  3. Their goal is to APPEAR to address the border rather than actually doing so.

Thus a new bill that gives plenty of opportunities for graft (in the form of payments to the left’s NGO’s) and addresses democrat priorates ( again a source for graft) while actually codifying thousands of illegals crossing daily and most important of all gives them a chance to say: We Did Something to Fix it.

One of the advantages of age is memory and as I recall going all the way back to Reagan, deals have been made concerning the border with the left. These deals follow a familiar pattern where the left has repeatedly taken Amnesty and cash offered while failing to actually enforce laws concerning the border that they always vow to do in exchange for them. 

So let’s cut to the chase and ask a question so obvious that I don’t understand why it isn’t being constantly repeated.

Given that historically the Democrats in general and this Administration in particular have been unwilling to enforce any existing border law why should we believe that once all the funds the left wants from this deal are appropriated via law they would actually enforce any provisions concerning border security?

Spoiler alert: they won’t be!

So I submit and suggest that rather then giving them a billion dollar source of cover for the 2024 election the GOP needs to have a single message on the border:

ENFORCE THE LAW, PERIOD!

End of discussion.
