There are just some people who can’t walk away from abuse. While most people, most women, in a relationship will hit the bricks if the man they’re seeing even seems like he’d raise his hand to her – and either men have it in them or they don’t, no one switches sides willy nilly or comes to this point late in life – others take abuse and return, time after time. Apparently, the thought of “He’s really sorry and won’t do it again” sticks around in the brain as long as Joe Biden has these days. That – this collective, self-delusional dementia – is how the Democratic Party can get anyone’s vote, ever.
The wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, Democrats’ favorite alleged gang member, is demanding his prompt return to the United States, despite the fact that she has filed police reports on at least two occasions claiming he was physically abusive with her.
Jennifer Vasquez Sura wants her husband back, just like so many other abuse victims still think they “love” their abusers, and that their abusers “love” them. But love doesn’t involve a right hook or the back of the hand.
Still, leftists have been pouring money and support into the cause of returning the man she once feared for her life from, with elected officials making a pilgrimage to his prison like he were a political prisoner and not an illegal alien.
Imagine the pressure on Jennifer. Maybe she’s being sincere, or perhaps she’s seeing one half of the political world descend on her and her family, showering her with moral and financial support the likes of which she’s never received before. How do you stand up to that? How do you do anything with that other than exactly what it wants you to do?
In the world of politics, solid blue Democrat Party enclaves are the closest analogy out there. Cities where Democrats have had complete control, absolute control, for generations, while the lives of their constituents and the neighborhoods in which they live have entirely gone to hell.
When I survived domestic violence 20 years ago I learned that 1 out of 3 women world-wide have been/are victims. Just like alcoholism and drug addiction, DV crosses all “social classes”, including the Alphabet-identifiers. I finally fled the State of MD earlier this year after being abused by its “democracy” (i.e. bureaucracy) for over 69 years – judicial system, legislative branch and teachers’ unions. I pray for my family and friends who remain. The good news is “the nature of progressive politics – it is a parasite that destroys its host” – hope I am still alive to witness it when it happens.
