The American left is seriously out of control. Now it is dangerous

The Left’s hysteria over Trump’s victory in 2016 has escalated into something quite beyond mere hysteria. Now the leftists are well and truly dangerous. Antifa, the fascist organization that protests anything and everything with which it disagrees, is violent, very violent. These people show up with weapons, wearing masks, and attack anyone they perceive to be in opposition to their own warped ideology.
CNN has long defended the group as good guys, social justice warriors. That is how off the rails CNN is. Like Antifa, CNN is officially and openly anti-American. Over the weekend in Portland, Quillette journalist Andy Ngo was badly beaten, seriously injured, by a group of these thugs and got no help from the Portland police, who actually made him walk back through the mob to seek help.
Portland may be ground zero for the worst of leftist brutality at the moment, but the Left is definitely ramping up its malicious intolerance. As everyone who cares to look knows, there have been many incidents of violence against Trump-supporters around the country, often for just wearing a red hat.
Also over the weekend, the supercilious owner of the Red Hen, the Lexington, Va. restaurant that asked Sarah Sanders and her family to leave her establishment a year ago, penned an op-ed in the WaPo defending her despicable manners. (What does this tell us about the WaPo? It is not a news outlet; it’s a hateful screed.) Her column is predictably a snooty defense of her rudeness. She complains of being “branded a racist, a bigot and a hypocrite.” Clearly, she is all those things. How is what she did at all different from the Jim Crow racists who refused to allow blacks or gays in their cafés and hotels in the fifties? It’s exactly the same thing. Wilkerson, this owner of the Red Hen, thinks Trump-supporters should not venture out to eat, that they “should dine at home.” Oh, the tolerant Left.
No one can forget Maxine Waters calling out her supporters to “get in their faces,” to harass Trump-supporters “wherever you run into them.” But then Obama, he with the Nobel Peace Prize, had advocated: “If they bring a knife to fight, you bring a gun.” This from the man who wants to confiscate guns from all law-abiding Americans.
