Dear Democrats,
Four years ago, you took the keys to the family car. Did you drive it with care and respect?
No. You got high as a kite and took it for a crazy, reckless joyride, without any consideration for the damage you were causing.
From bumper to bumper – border security, immigration, foreign policy, military planning, economic strategy, energy independence, freedom of speech, crime, equal application of the law, social cohesion, respect for fundamental rights, and so much more – you turned that family car into into a smoking, battered wreck.
We spent generations building a wonderful home for you, and this is how you repay us? All you seem to care about is having sex, avoiding responsibility, and spending our money: the money we need for paying our bills, and for groceries, and clothes, and fuel. And you’ve even been taking our money and giving it away to all your friends, and to all sorts of strangers that you’ve been letting into our house. And when we’ve tried to talk to you about it, all you do is call us horrible names, and slam the door in our faces.
Also: you seem to think the world owes everyone a good living, just for existing. (Hint: it doesn’t.)
So: enough is enough. We’re terribly disappointed in you, and now we’re taking the keys away. And of course you’re having a tantrum, just like the spoiled children you are.
Well, too bad. We don’t want to hear it. There’s nobody to blame here but you. Right now you need to go to your room, and think about what you’ve done. You can come down and join us at the table when you’re ready to act your age.
– America

Nothing for me to add. Malcolm, can you detect any kind of local mood where you are?
Excellent writing/ right-on analysis.
