"Since November 2016, when Donald Trump was elected president, the Left has been engaged in one long crackup—a juvenile tantrum of epic proportions marked by hideous screams, rolling eyes, copious tears, foam-flecked lips, and flailing fists and feet..."
This has finally allowed us to see them for what they really are: a giant 2-year-old in the midst of a frustrated, impotent meltdown.
Indeed, the entire leftist freak show has been on display throughout this remarkable period of American history.

The Left is obsessed (of course) with the Marxist categories of race, sex, and class, but those problems having largely been addressed, it must create new sub-categories of “underprivileged” in order to stoke and keep the home fires of resentment burning.
So it’s easy for them to see bearded “women” winning female athletic competitions as both victims and heroes, who simultaneously need to be defended from the yahoos, and celebrated for their “bravery.”
During the 8 years of the Obama Admin, this sort of nuttiness was not only tolerated but advocated. In politics, such manifestly absurd notions as “leading from behind” and “soft power” brought only disaster in the realm of foreign policy.
But all things must end, even crazy things, and for the Left that day has now arrived. With the sensible electorate nearing the end of its rope, Trump’s win was born of desperation—something the dwindling ranks of the #NeverTrumpumpkins to this day cannot understand.
Leftists are not so much reacting to the gleeful rejection of their crackpot policies as they are to their own realization that their policies were, in fact, lunacy. Men are not women. Inaction is not action.
History does not unfold in an “arc” that bends toward their definition of justice. Up is not down. Black is not white. Cultural traditions are not arbitrary impositions from authority, but the residue of millennia of experience. Definitions matter—names matter—and truth follows.
What’s happening right now is the counterrevolution—not of conservatives, or Republicans, or Trump, but of nature, which always reasserts itself, sometimes in very unpleasant but nonetheless instructive ways.
The Greeks called the defiance of the gods and natural order hubris, which sent folks like Icarus plunging to their doom.
That screeching you hear is not the Left venting anger; it’s the sound of the sheer terror that now possesses them as they plummet to their doom—realizing, too late, that all along they have been dead wrong.
