The New Kakistocracy

The Democrats have taken over the House of Representatives and the worst possible people are now in charge.

Kakistocracy is a badly underused word which needs to make a major comeback this year, as it is perfectly descriptive of the cabal of loons, clowns, demagogues, crooks and halfwits who are now in charge of the House of Representatives.

The literal definition of the word is a system of government which is run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens. It’s been around for a few hundred years, but overtaken by others perhaps more colorful to describe slimeball government. Kleptocracy, for example, has a real ring to it.

But in surveying the crowd now in charge, who elected Nancy Pelosi for another tour of duty as the Speaker of the House, it’s not enough to call this a kleptocracy or an idiocracy. There are for certain crooks and idiots among the new House majority, and even within its leadership and committee chairs.

But there is so much more depravity and disqualification than that. Kakistocracy is really the word.

 

Start with Pelosi, who’s a proven commodity. She got four years as House Speaker from 2007-2011, after which the American people reacted to her governance as they would a rabid coyote in the front yard. She’s hardly improved since — if anything, the episodic moonbattery, unnatural facial tics, brazen public untruths, and irrational pronouncements have become even more frequent and frightening than they were a dozen years ago. That’s not a surprise given Pelosi’s age and clearly declining faculties............To Read More......

My Take - Kakistocracy is a system of government run by the least suitable or competent citizens of a state!  This confirms that.

The author lists some of the biggest, dumbest loons in Congress who will become committee chairs, like Maxine Waters, all qualified members of the Club For the Galacticly Stupid.  There really is an upside to this.  The Democrats took over the House and now think they own government, when in reality the own the House, that's it.  In times past that would be enough because any Republican Senate or President would shoot off their mouths and then buckle like wet noodles.  That story won't play this time.  The Senate Republicans would still like to do their usual go along to get along while protesting, but they now have a real sheriff to deal with.....President Trump, and he will excoriate them if they buckle now. 

The nation forgot what it was like when the Democrats owned Congress, but now, they're going to see once again the Democrats are irrational, misanthropic, morally defective and are working to destroy the American identity, American Culture, American sovereignty, and overturn the Constitution.  Now they'll get another chance to see it.
