WEINSTEIN: We must not upend governance over minor or transient things.
HEYING: That is right.
WEINSTEIN: It's only something that you would do when things have truly failed.
The modern democratic left does not understand this. It sees nothing but grievances and sees nothing as an alternative to them, but burn it all down. And as no idea, apparently, either they say it cynically and they know what's coming and those who are really driving the policy believe they will benefit from chaos or they don't know. In many cases, the rank and file do not understand that what they are inviting as a replacement for the things they find galling is warlordism, right? Or despotism or some mixture of the two. And it's not something you would contemplate if you had a marvelous country with major flaws. You would, you would fix the flaws, but you wouldn't upend it.
