Dem Hate Politics Will Cost Them a Second Election

Switch on CNN or flip through the Washington Post and you will find the non-stop politics of personal destruction accompanied by Fortune 500 ads.

Clinton supporters in the media aren't just obsessed with Stormy Daniels or Russia conspiracy theories, but with destroying the lives of Trump supporters, from cabinet members to a random New York lawyer who once donated $500 to Trump.

Bill Clinton may have popularized the politics of personal destruction, but practicing its politics cost Hillary Clinton the '16 election.

While the media tethered its news cycle to Stormy Daniels and her lawyer, the economy boomed and tax cuts delivered.

The politics of personal destruction are deeply compelling to people who already believe that their opponents are utterly deplorable and must be destroyed.

That's why the media is a non-stop roll of interviews with Stormy's lawyer, flowcharts of Russian conspiracy theories and breaking news reports claiming that EPA administrator Scott Pruitt eats stale bagels.

The politics of personal destruction can entertain and influence most Americans, but it doesn't drive them.

That's why their politics of personal destruction keeps flopping against President Trump.

The politics of personal destruction and virtue signaling allows them to avoid any discussion about their own financial interests in politics.

Politics may be downstream of culture, but they're both downstream of economics.

There's a reason that 'Follow the Money' is the timeless truth of politics.
