The national news media is still in shock over Tuesday’s election results. But journalist John Kass is not among them. He even “felt the need to sit down on the couch and dispassionately enjoy it all.” And what he sees is Democrat cannibalism.

Republicans shocked the Democratic world in Virginia and New Jersey, and the frenzied Democratic left began chewing on whatever moderates remain among them, and the blame game could be heard in full throated tribal screams.

I’m sure the survivors of the Donner Party blamed those who furnished them a haunch or two, or more, for the crime of tempting them in their time of need.

The amazing thing is that leftists are never deterred by defeat. They never pause for self-reflection or moderation. They lash out at anyone who stood in their way.

Left wing media hysterics don’t listen to the people. Instead, they’re too busy condemning the people as fools or liars for the sin of not agreeing with them. Telling people what to do, shaming them as racists or “insurrectionists,” declaring them a virus or a collection of potential “domestic terrorists” if they don’t support the left’s agenda. That’s what drives many in media and they wonder why their credibility is low.

Yes, it’s a racket. The loudest, the angriest, can make a good living at the game. But politicians make their living through addition, not subtraction. You’d think that professional politicians would listen.

Yet Biden and other boss Democrats don’t listen. The president’s tanking poll numbers on Democratic policy failures are screams that their house is burning.

And it’s burning because of their own policies. From “the wide-open Southern border” to the “yearlong shutdown of the schools at the behest of the powerful teachers’ unions” to “wild government spending sprees that fuel inflation,” Democrats merely double down. But what really did in Terry McAuliffe and other Virginia Democrats was education.

What truly motivates all Americans are their children. And parents don’t like supporting government (public) schools, where children are separated by race and pitted against each other by political operatives who see race in all things.

Kass concludes by going back to the Donner reference:

Some Democrats are no doubt wondering if they’d made a terrible mistake by not standing up to the hard neo-Marxist left that shapes their party when they had the chance. But that chance is gone. And the Democratic establishment betrayed the progressives years ago, by rigging the 2016Democratic presidential nomination for Hillary Clinton against Bernie Sanders. They left does not forget or forgive. Nor should they.

Now, all Democrats and their pet pundits know what will happen if they stand up to the left. They’ll be politically devoured, just as the left devoured American cities and the administrations of liberal Democratic mayors in the summer of the George Floyd riots, amid the looting and the burning in those “mostly peaceful” protests media kept prattling on and on about.

Everything is force. The Democrats really don’t want to listen. And they can’t hear. What they want is to survive, perhaps sacrifice a few weaklings.

They’re like the Donner Party. They must know that snow will cover the mountain passes. And winter is coming.
