Since before President Trump took office, the Democratic base has been in a state of perpetual frenzy. And as next Tuesday’s midterm congressional elections have drawn nearer, the Left’s fervor has grown ever more radical and vociferous. Perhaps that was to be expected, but what was less easily predicted is that many leading figures in this crusade to elect Democrats call themselves conservatives.

There can be reasonable debate over whether a conservative ought to vote for Trump, either in 2016 or in 2020. There are also a few places were there is a decent case to be made that conservatives should not support Republican candidates. But if anyone tells you that conservatives should want Democrats to control Congress, that person is either deluded or a con artist.
