Dems continue their fascist nonsense about Trump

 The Federalist Wire:

...

In a fiery interview over the weekend, Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) likened President-elect Donald Trump to infamous dictators Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, drawing sharp criticism from political commentators and Republican leaders.

Clyburn made the remarks during a conversation with Neil Cavuto on Fox News’ Cavuto Live on Saturday. Discussing the nation’s political shift to the Right in the recent elections, Clyburn reflected on historical patterns of ideological swings in the United States.

“We go from left to right in this country,” he stated. “We go from right back left in this country. And I always say, well whether the pendulum is going from left to right or right to left, it always passes through the middle.”

He expressed concern over what he perceives as a dramatic political lurch:

“Now, the country has gone lurching back to the right. I hope it’s not going as far right as that which happened in Germany in the 1930s. But you may remember I forewarned way back in 2018 that I saw this coming. I’ve studied history all of my life.”

When Cavuto pressed him for clarification, asking if he was “envisioning another Hitler,” Clyburn left no ambiguity in his response.

“That’s exactly what I’m saying,” Clyburn declared. “I said the 1930s in Germany. And of course, we go to Mussolini in Italy.”

Clyburn doubled down, insisting that his comparisons were not exaggerated, prompting immediate backlash from Republican voices.

Republican strategist Steve Guest criticized Clyburn’s statements on X, accusing Democrats of incendiary rhetoric.

“Democrats are rhetorical arsonists who don’t care about the consequences of their rhetoric,” Guest wrote. He pointed to the assassination attempts Trump has faced as evidence of the dangerous consequences such comments could have. “Clyburn’s comments this morning only add fuel to the fire.”
...

Clyburn's comments are absurd.  Trump started no wars and has not been incarcerating or killing Jews for being Jews.  He even has Jewish grandchildren.  He clearly had a better economy than Biden and there were no wars in Europe and the Middle East when Trump was president.  If Democrats hope to become more competitive they need to stop these nonsensical allegations against Trump and focus on real issues that voters find to be important.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t...

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
