My new @townhallcom column:
The Socialists Are Coming... for the Democrats
“When you look at this as a power struggle, rather than a purely ideological struggle, things begin to make more sense. Also, look where it happened. The pinkos who surfed to victory on the Marxist wave were in some of the most left-wing districts in the country. We have yet to see any of these pinko types actually beat a moderate Democrat in a blue or purple state. Now, Graham Platner, when he’s not busy touching himself in an outhouse or fantasizing about performing unnatural acts upon a burglar, is one of these. The dummkopf with the totenkopf is running against the rigorously normal Susan Collins, and he’s probably going to lose. Maine just isn’t inner-city New York City. There are a few of these folks running in places like Montana, but it’s not going to work. There’s no appetite in normal America for aggressive Marxists. That’s why this is all really more of a power struggle between generations within the Democrat Party.”

My new @townhallcom column channels Chumbawamba - you get knocked down, you get up again…
“Well, that sucked — nay, it super sucked. It sucked like the giant black hole at the center of the galaxy. There’s no silver lining to this cloud; the best you’re going to get is some aluminum. But we’ve been here before. Not to this extent for a long time, but we have been here before. We’ve had bad nights. And Tuesday was a very, very bad night.
OK, so we’re going to sit and cry about it? Are we going to give up? Not unless we want to give up our country. And I don’t want to give up our country.”
Yeah, It Blows… So What? Life Is Hard. Toughen Up. https://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2026/11/05/yeah-it-blows-so-what-life-is-hard-toughen-up-n2685949
