It’s been over a year since the earth shattering election in the US which ushered Donald J. Trump into the national presidency.  During the course of the election, all manner of hysteria was on full display from all quarters of the rabid opposition; from other politicos, the entertainment industry and of course from the national news outlets.  After a year of digging into the dry hole which is Russia Russia Russia, they are still poring over any scintilla of a hint of evidence that the Trump presidency was the result of an elaborate Russian plot.

While there is no time limit on the terms of an investigation, any rational person would conclude that given the monies and effort spent on finding any kind of link to Russian collusion and finding none after a year, that it’s a waste of time and more likely an exercise driven by partisan opponents still incredulous on the election result.  Does Monty Python’s black knight in the forest skit ring true for anyone? The phenomenon of slightly unhinged partisan opposition is given more and more credence by the news of the soon to be opened anti Trump hotel in Washington DC. The Eaton Workshop hotel, scheduled to open in the spring, bills itself as a haven for political activists who long for the days when President Barack Obama resided in the White House.  As the link shows, i am not making this up.

For those of us seated with a big tub of popcorn watching the left eating themselves through revelations of corrupt Hollywood practices or exposes by a former DNC officer on the workings of their candidate processes, it’s been a joy to watch as the left gets consumed by their own sanctimony.  Looking for any ring to grasp as their ideology sinks, the most recent idea is to corral Joe Biden back to run in the next election.  Sure he’s likeable enough, but he’s as close to being a cardboard cutout of a person as you can get. However his main shortcoming is, just like the past President, he’s done nothing his entire life but work in government.  The left are so bereft of ideas other than “not Trump” that they’d reach for an anchor if it was offered to them.

The great political divide revealed by the results of the last election has only become wider.  However the events that have transpired over the past year indicates that it is not the superior arguments of one side that will sway the other.  We can see that there is a deeply seated intransigence on the left that is immune from any rational tonic.  Which means that going forward, it won’t be favorable policies that will sway the public, it will be partisan victories regardless of their consequences.
