It appears that the Democrats have gone too far over Los Angeles, even for liberal, former CNN journalist Chris Cillizza.
In a recent video, he commented that Democrats are ‘colossally stupid’ for fighting Trump over this, noting that the public can see the burning cars, the looting, the vandalism and rioters attacking police.
Democrats seem to be trapped in a time warp. They think it’s still 2016 and that they can ‘resist’ their way through the next three years. That is not going to happen and even this guy can see it.
From the Daily Caller:
“Democrats appear entirely comfortable with playing along on this, which is colossally stupid from a political perspective,” Cillizza said, taking aim at Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom for daring border czar Tom Homan to “come after [him]” and “arrest” him…
“[Newsom] was on MSNBC on Sunday night where he basically said, like, to Tom Homan … he basically said, ‘Why doesn’t Tom Homan just come and arrest me? He’s not such a tough guy.’ I don’t know why that would — this is not about Gavin Newsom, right?” Cillizza added. “To personalize it like that makes no sense.”…
He also called out Democratic California Rep. Maxine Waters for her comments on the riots.
“She said, quote, ‘I don’t know why we have guns. What are those guns for? Are they to shoot protesters?’ Again, if you are looking at the images coming up on your TV screen — cars on fire, looting, people defacing buildings—and then you hear Maxine Waters say, ‘What are these cops doing?’ That feels tone-deaf to me, right?”

Cillizza is not alone in this. Tonight on FOX News, Brit Hume called the recent actions of Democrats ‘politically insane.’ Watch:

Democrats really don’t seem to understand how bad they look to most of the country right now.
