‘Just Contemptible’: Piers Morgan Skewers Democrats For ‘Pathetic’ Antics During Trump Speech


“I thought it was one of the most pathetic, petty, shameful things I’ve ever witnessed and it went on and on and on. Back in [the United Kingdom] we have Parliament, it gets very rowdy, very noisy, they all have a pump at each other, they lock horns. What you would never see is a 13-year-old boy, a brain cancer survivor, who’s been through 12 surgeries I think, who’s there having his dream lived out on global television and Donald Trump has facilitated that. Just get up,” Morgan said. “Get up and applaud that boy. The fact that they couldn’t even do that was just contemptible, I really did.”​
“And the Democrats should take a good, hard look at themselves because the stupid signs, the not getting up for these poor families of these murdered people, the way they treated that boy, the walkouts, the silly Instagram stuff they did afterward, ‘look at me, I didn’t go in,’ this is the President of the United States speaking in the heart of politics,” Morgan continued.​
IMHO - the left is quickly becoming the face of hatred in the US.
As the Democratic Party seems to slide further and further to the extreme left, it is creating rifts within the Party itself. Moderate Democrats do not seem to have a voice or home within the Party and a beginning to publicly speak out about it.

Those who do not follow tribe speak are quickly silenced. It looks like they are imploding.

I think you may be the first person to accuse Piers Morgan of being a "moderate Democrat" lol.

It should be noted that we've seen similar issues with the Republican Party - as it has slid further to the right, moderates have increasingly found themselves excluded, with those who have dared to speak out against Trump quickly silenced.

It does seem to be an inevitable trajectory for political parties - radical voices are the loudest and have the most influence on the party's platform, and it turns into a feedback loop as more and more moderates are excluded.

Great topic for a different thread

That's true and I believe one of the main reasons people are leaving the Democratic Party to the point of a lower rating than Joe Biden.

Every time a progressive Democrat for Congress (with the exception of our principled American hero, beloved Bernie Sanders) the DNC finds enough money to fund a moderate for the same seat. They say that progressives can't win, but the younger members of my family say that the main reason why Democrats don't go to the polls is that the candidates who are running aren't willing to support real change--Medicare for All, for example.

I don't know whether that's true or not (and all my family members do vote, sometimes reluctantly), but given the catastrophic danger our country is in, maybe it's time to give it a try.

Vote in all the progressives, and in the give and take of legislation, the results will be moderate.

Your beloved hero had a transgender singer at his rally singing "Does your God have a big fat (sex organ)?"
Fine people for Christians to support. It wasn't just a mistake either, this singer has performed at Bernie rallies before.
The Democrats haven't learned anything

Lyrics to the aforementioned song (edited for extreme profanity) :

[Chorus]
Does your god have a big fat ----?
Cause it feels like he’s ------- me
Are his ----- filled with lightning?
Do they dangle like heaven's keys?
Does your god have a big fat ----?
Cause it feels like he’s ------- me
[Verse 1]
Does his - go deep
So deep it puts an --- to sleep?
Who’s the 6 to his 9
And what are his other kinks?
If he grows all the trees
Does he taste every peach?
Is your god ------- you and ------- me?
I know creation must get lonely
After all he’s one and only
And his son was so well hung
I think the big man deserves one
[Verse 2]
When he whips out his meat
Does your world fall to its knees?
Does he shoot wads of honey
And --- twice on Easter Sunday?
What’s his favourite position?
Missionary? Magic bullet?
We all give him no lover
Just a hand and a mother
Can he --- a shotgun blast
And shoot salvation up your ---?
Does he chew ---- like bubblegum
And give -------- like a vacuum?

After this vile song was performed at Bernie Sanders' rally, he thanked the transgender performer.

Why would Sanders ally himself with someone like this, and why would any Christian think this is acceptable? Of course, there was all kinds of righteous indignation when a shock comedy performer called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage at a Trump rally last year, but apparently blaspheming Christianity is A-OK for some progressive Christians.

Agree or disagree with the sentiments expressed as you wish....but transgender people and non-christians have the same freedom of speech as everyone else in this country, and have every right to express it as they wish.

No one said they didn't. But one has to question why Bernie Sanders would want to associate with such a vile artist.

I really appreciate when stuff like this happens, because it vividly illustrates selective outrage and hypocrisy. Guy at a Trump rally calls Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage? How un-christian! How vile! How appalling! Guy at Sanders rally literally blasphemes God and all of Christianity? Free speech, doncha know!

Perhaps he simply doesn't agree with your assessment of the artist. Diff'rent strokes and all that.

It's all free speech. Take or leave any or all of it as you wish.

Are they turning on each other? I know Morgan is English, but I assume he would mostly have liberal views? I dunno.
I didn't know that he was living on your side of the Atlantic. (I've just checked; he has homes in both countries.) Over here (UK) Piers is on the conservative/traditional side of the political spectrum.

My thoughts on Piers Morgan largely come from The Mirror hacking case, where reporters at The Mirror hacked into celebrities cell phones to get information. And, while Piers Morgan -- despite being the boss and needing to know how sure reporters were about stories and where they got the information (to protect the paper from being sued) -- denied knowing about the hacking, evidence was presented in court that he did know about it. As such, I tend to find him untrustworthy and have no interest in his opinions or what he presents as "news."

I think it was him that someone recently referred to as backpfeifengesicht. Or it might have been Farage. And far be it that I'm suggesting anything untoward to either of those...umm...intellectuals.

Yes, the hacking incidences were terrible.
