Dems at it again with deplorable remarks

horrible mistake, just as Democrat David Axelrod now understands that the ugly sounds coming out of U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters’ mouth — and the larger Democratic orgy of public shaming of Republicans — are terrible political mistakes.

Americans aren’t big on shaming. They don’t like it when it comes from the Twitter feed of some anonymous troll with a cartoon head.

They like shaming even less when they envision themselves as the next target, up close, their families surrounded. What comes after shaming? Pain.

But the left loves to publicly shame those who challenge them.

Americans don’t mind debate. What they do mind is picturing themselves ordering a chicken dinner and being told to leave because of their politics, as happened to Sanders.

Or shouted at in a restaurant, and outside her home, as is happening to Kirstjen Nielsen, the secretary of homeland security. Or being yelled at and allegedly spat on as was Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi at a theater where she hoped to watch the documentary on the gentle Mister Rogers.

Waters, the Los Angeles Democrat considered a hero and wise woman to some, argued publicly that those loyal to Trump should be hounded, publicly. “And if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd,” Waters said at a rally. “And you push back on them.”

This is exceedingly dangerous. It begs violence. And if it happens, it will rightly be put in the lap of the Democrats.

Trump wouldn’t know civility if it bit him. He’s not an example of prudence and good manners. And he’s no Mister Rogers.

What he’s doing is making Waters the public face of his opposition. Her idiocy has great currency.

Some Democrats, like Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York, properly admonished Waters. But unless Democrats censure her publicly in the House (and they wouldn’t dare), they’ll sidestep this and search for some new outrage to change the subject.
