Fissures appearing in the Democrat House of Usher.

Not going there.

Steven Crowder reports a fellow whom he generally holds in low regard, Bill Maher, nevertheless made an astonishing statement on his podcast to a guest, Republican bad boy and rock ‘n’ roller, Kid Rock, that was hardly apposite of his hard left beliefs.

I would be a very bad parent right now, because I would fight. We would be very aligned on this, a lot of this. I would be a very bad parent because they would be doing things in the school that I didn’t think was appropriate.

Not from either side or point of view. The subject itself. They are five. Can we just do blocks and the sky is blue before we get to drag queens?

At which point Kid Rock leaned over to Maher with outstretched hand and said: “Welcome to the Republican Party.” (Mahre declined the invitation to grasp that hand.)

Hardly a tectonic shift and Mahre in the past has made iconoclastic comments concerning excesses of the radical left, but in this instance, listening to the tone of his voice one senses he is genuinely upset over their unrelenting smothering of little children with the cynical and horrific transgender/drag agenda.

A throwaway remark or maybe, just maybe, a signal from a prominent Democrat that party leadership has finally built a political edifice so rickety and unstable, a substantial number of its members would prefer not to find themselves in it.

We shall know soon enough which of the two it is.
