Letter to the editor: Democrat zombies

Fans of the “Walking Dead” TV series will recall that the zombies generally wandered around aimlessly in hordes until something, often a noise, would propel the group to move in the direction of the noise and continue in said direction until another noise would send them stumbling in a new direction. One can easily see the similarity to the left-wing agitators who react to the Democrat-inspired noise regarding Elon Musk.

Musk was a hero to the political left; he has stated that he supported and voted for mostly Democrats. He was the owner of an electric car company that was helping to save the planet. He owned communication satellites and the most innovative rockets to send astronauts into space.

Then, in 2022 his politics evolved, and the noise from the Dems began. Suddenly, he was smeared as a Nazi. The noise grew more strident when he announced his support for Donald Trump’s candidacy. Now, as head of DOGE, he is exposing how the federal government acts as a money laundering operation for politicians, bureaucrats and nongovernmental organizations.

The noise from the left is now deafening. “Fascist! Unelected oligarch!” The brainless zombies follow the noise as they rage against Musk, destroying Tesla vehicles and fire-bombing Tesla dealerships. As in the TV series, these “walking dead” seem incapable of logical reasoning.

This is the state of the current Democratic Party. I believe that with very few exceptions they are a corrupt, self-serving bunch of noise-makers. Understand, you can disagree with Trump without being a Democrat zombie.
