    R.F. O’Rourke has the virtue of acknowledging publicly what approximately all of the rest of the Democrat politicians say privately.

    This reveals, unintentionally, not just that the left has won the culture wars, but how assured it is in its victory. Could you imagine headlines saying:

    “Republican presidential candidate will strip churches of tax-exempt status if they support abortion”

    “Republican presidential candidate will strip churches of tax-exempt status if they support gun control”

    “Republican presidential candidate will strip churches of tax-exempt status if they support same-sex marriage”

    Of course not. The left has won the culture wars.

    But R.F. O’Rourke is not happy with a mere battlefield victory. He wants the other side eliminated (“I have run the plough over it, like the ancient Carthage of Africa, and I have had salt sown upon it”) with opposing troops who fought honorably put to the sword. What happens to those noisome MAGA hat wearers is left as an exercise for the imagination.
