Why? They are unhinged by Trump again.... lol... As I have told @fbh1 over and over again, hate is a powerful emotion.

President Trump is demonstrating a skill at backing his opponents into corners that he didn’t show in his first term.
Of course, it helps that his enemies are, unaccountably, cooperating.
One of Trump’s best moves has been, repeatedly, to get the Democrats to take the “20%” side on the so-called “80/20 issues.” (To be fair, sometimes they’re more like 70/30 issues, but close enough.)
One reason he’s been able to do this is that Democrats reflexively oppose anything he does.
So when Trump promises to cut spending sharply and reduce the debt, Democrats go all-in against it, even though it’s something a huge majority of Americans support.
Agitating to continue waste, fraud and abuse — especially when there are truly glaring examples of it — is a bad look. But it was just the start.
Billions for USAID: an 80/20 issue. Dems took the 20% side.
Keeping boys out of girls’ sports: another 80/20 issue, and Dems took the 20% side.
Closing the border, energy independence, supporting Israel, deporting dangerous aliens, on and on.
Trump has the Democrats jumping to defend basically every issue that a Democratic strategist of 20 years ago, or maybe even 10 years ago, would have told them to avoid like the plague.
