Any conservative worth his or her salt in “Understanding Liberals 101” is aware that the left’s positions and arguments in defense of those positions are not based on facts, data, history, logic, or common sense. Rather, leftism is based solely on pandering and exploitation — always with an eye on the ballot box.
Toss in Senator Elizabeth Warren, Democrat socialist from Massachusetts. — she insists she’s not a socialist — and the needle pegs on cluelessness and irrationality when she’s confronted with facts or logic.
As a result of “all of the above,” it was nolo contendere for Lizzie on Friday when the student debt “forgiveness” advocate was confronted by “The View” guest co-host, conservative journalist Lindsey Granger over what she’d tell people who have already worked hard to pay off Their college debts.
Warren went full-metal “deer in the headlights” when Granger — who led with These facts — asked, as transcribed by Mediaite (emphasis, mine):
Let me now turn my attention to student loans. I mean, you’ve been fiercely advocating for the president to cancel student loan debts, but really, only 13% of Americans even have federal student loan debt. This is the only way you can reach most voters.
Also, how do you respond to someone such as me who has a similar situation? For a decade, I worked at two different jobs to pay all their student loans — just finished. How do I get reimbursement?
Picture Warren’s elitist mind. She began her career there. academia as a lecturer at Rutgers University, Newark School of Law (1977–1978), then moved to the University of Houston Law Center (1978–1983) where she became an associate dean in 1980 and obtained tenure in 1981.
Translation: Like her socialist comrade Bernie Sanders, Warren has never had a “real job” in her life.
So how did Lizzie respond? Like all leftists respond when they’ve just had their asses handed to them; she ignored Granger’s questions and rattled off her rote spiel. [Bracketed “color commentary,” yours truly]:
So let’s start out with who has student loans today. About 40% of the folks with student loans don’t have a college diploma. [And whose fault is that? Dunno, but I do know it’s not hardworking taxpayers or the U.S. Treasury.]
They’re folks who tried, they’re folks who tried and life happened. [Oh, please. “Life happens” to all of us, Lizzie. It’s called — um — life.]Two jobs were available for pregnant women. One of the two was already full-time and one had been lost. Mom got sick. [Here we go — faux emotion, a hallmark of the left.]
Moving to another place was necessary for the family. They now earn the same as a high school graduate. [By choice or settling.] And they’re trying to pay off college-level debt, and it is crushing their bones. [“Crushing their bones”? Got hyperbole, Lizzie?]
Be aware that students who are in student debt are more likely to have negative wealth than those with no credit. [Again, whose fault is that and whose it it clearly not? They don’t have any wealth. [I don’t wanna sound cold, but again that’s not the fault of hardworking American taxpayers.]
Warren then turned to full-metal. Warren.
There are currently tens to thousands of Social Security beneficiaries who are being garnished with their Social Security checks in order to repay student loans. This is for me a matter of fairness. [“Fairness”? For whom?]
America lived in a period when it was not possible to have a free society. InvestedOur public universities and colleges. [Stop it. Leaving taxpayers holding the bag and/or increasing the national debt is not investing, Fauxcahontas. Period.]
That’s how I could go to a college that cost $50 a semester [She’s lying]Part-time jobs can pay the cost of this. However, this option isn’t available to our youth today. [Really? I must be confused in my belief that unfilled job openings reached a record 11.5 million in March.]
So this is about saying, look, it’s tough. [Life has challenges, Lizzie — only liberals think those who are successful should share their success (money) with those who are not.]
That is what we understand. We are here to help you. [“We want to redistribute wealth to you so you’ll vote for us.”]We are willing to make an investment in you obtaining your education. [“We want to force taxpayers to pay your obligations so you’ll vote for us.]
Warren never even tried to answer Granger’s questions about what she’d tell people who’ve already paid off their contractually-obligated student debt, or why she’d be more than happy to hand out $2 trillion in taxpayer money to people who want to walk away from theirs.
Is Warren’s inability to grasp The real world: Life as it is Incredible, or what?
Incidentally, also on Friday’s episode of “The View,” as reported by my RedState colleague Jennifer Oliver O’Connell, Granger also took apart co-host Sunny Hostin over Her inabilityWrap She sat down and analyzed her thoughts.The idea of BlackRepublicans Latino Republicans.
The View on Racism: Sunny Hostin says a “black Republican”, is an “oxymoron.”
Lindsey Granger laughed at her co-host. “I don’t believe in black Republicans. I don’t even understand Latino Republicans.” pic.twitter.com/JJa6N9ff3m— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) May 6, 2022
Bottom line:
Sometimes — most of the time — the left NearlyConservatives find it easy to take advantage of this. It’s up to us to take advantage of the countless opportunities. That is when conservatives stick to the relevant facts that fly in face of the left’s various narratives, pandering, exploitation, and outright lying. That is what it is most of all.
It’s my opinion that a growing percentage of the electorate is at a historical political crossroads, snapped into reality by more than a year of divisiveness — Joe Biden style — and ineptness on a scale unseen in the White House in at least Modern history And worst of all, purposeful crisis after purposeful crisis, all with the singular goal of destroying America as we know it and converting it into a radically-progressive utopia, the likes of which we’ve only begun to see.
