The Republican Party is hypocritical and like their leader attempt to bully liberals. Former leaders of the Democratic Party, Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, have rolled over for far too long. Democrats who believe in the principles of their party are moving back to the left and attacking right wing extremists in a manner which hurts their non-existent feelings. It’s time to stop talking and stand up to Trump and his circle of sinners.

New progressive leaders including Maxine Waters, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Pressley, and Beto O’Rourke have taken an aggressive approach to politics and Republicans are very scared. They support the people; they support Democratic Socialism.

A new show on Showtime will air this Sunday. It makes fun of some of the most divisive and destructive right-wing politicians in modern history.

Sacha Baron Cohen intentionally duped several of the most anti-American men and women in our nation’s history. Now these former liars and hypocrites are complaining that they have been exposed by the truth.

His new show is called “Who is America?” One of those he interviewed over the last year is the biggest mistake ever made by the Republican Party prior to Trump.

Wearing the disguise of a disabled American veteran, he interviewed Sarah Palin, the most unqualified vice-presidential candidate in history, along with one of her daughters. When she realized that Cohen’s questions were intended to reveal her rehearsed views of her America; she ran out of the room.

“I join a long list of American public personalities who have fallen victim to the evil, exploitive, sick ‘humor’ of the British ‘comedian’ Sacha Baron Cohen, enabled and sponsored by CBS/Showtime,” Palin wrote.

“I sat through a long ‘interview’ full of Hollywoodism’s disrespect and sarcasm – but finally had enough and literally, physically removed my mic and walked out, much to Cohen’s chagrin,” she continued. “The disrespect of our US military and middle-class Americans via Cohen’s foreign commentaries under the guise of interview questions was perverse.”

Pardon me if I say “hee hee.”

Another “victim” of Cohen’s intended “entrapment,” was “Satan on earth,” former vice-president, Dick Cheney.

While offscreen, Cohen interviews Dick Cheney and asks him to autograph a “kit” used for waterboarding. Cheney agrees to sign the apparatus. “That’s the first time I ever signed a waterboard.” Later in the promotional clip Cheney says: “I hope you’ll tune in next week for an interview with me.”

Republicans can’t handle the truth.

After years of accepting ridicule and fallacious attacks from Republicans, real Democrats are fighting back. This is our country, not the country of the rich and privileged. Hope is alive.

Please tell others about my blog; thank you.
