    By this summer, the legacy media was calling R.F. O’Rourke a third-tier candidate.

    That is not a lifetime classification. Robert Francis is only 47 years old. He has time to try again in future elections.

    But he was impatient. He thought appealing to the Antifa-loving far left would increase his polling numbers. So he started talking up AR-15 confiscation at gunpoint, Trump-Hitler comparisons, abortion until birth, and stripping Christian churches of their tax-exempt status.

    It did not work. This time. But he got #MediaJackal attention. And he was not immediately ostracized and shunned by Democrat party elders.

    We should not view him as a failed candidate, or only as one. We should view him as someone who blazed a trail for others to follow with even more radical proposals.

    Remember the new guiding principles of the Democrat Party and their #MediaJackal propagandists are: gun owners are deplorables, devout Christians are haters, white men and women are irredeemable racists who deserve what’s coming, and anyone opposed to “drag queens” flashing children at public libraries is a bigot.
