Lefties couldn’t stop hating America even on its 250th anniversary

What sourpusses: Lefties can’t even celebrate the Fourth of July without bashing America and ranking on Donald Trump.

Trump “doesn’t care about you,” huffed California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) on Saturday.

The Founders’ “radical idea” that “governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed” is “under threat” from Trump.   

Never mind that Trump was duly elected — twice; Newsom blathered on like that for nearly all eight minutes of his speech. That’s a 250th national anniversary salute?

Meanwhile, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s screed focused on America’s flaws.

Immigrants, he whined, couldn’t “see the nativism they would face — the jobs they would be refused, the landlords who would not rent to them, the abject labor and living conditions they would withstand.”

Hmm: Hizzoner’s dad is a professor, and his mom a respected filmmaker. Surely they must’ve known about the “horrors” of America. Yet they came anyway.

Socialist Claire Valdez, who’ll almost surely represent New York’s 7th congressional district after winning the Democratic primary last month, expressed even more rage.

“The system is rigged, and our planet poisoned by billionaires, bosses, and war profiteers,” she fumed on X.

“This 4th of July we recommit ourselves . . . to fight for liberation from Palestine to Puerto Rico, for a Green New Deal, for the world we deserve.”

She couldn’t even bring herself to mention the United States.

Non-politicians on the left — Mark Ruffalo, Molly Ringwald, Ted Danson and others — joined in the gloom-mongering, issuing warnings about standing up to government.

“Do not obey in advance,” they urge. “Be wary of paramilitaries.”

Ruffalo said he participated because “my hope is that, after this very bad and corrupt time we are living through now, we move away from a government that caters to the wealthy and powerful and focuses on the needs, desires and dreams of the children and young people.”

Think of all the fun they must have at dinner parties.

Then again, at least most of them were likely on US soil for the Fourth; Mamdani’s wife, Rama Duwaji, fled the country altogether, to attend an Islamic “spiritual wellness” retreat on the Spanish island of Mallorca.

We get it: Much of the left abhors America.

But if they believe this nation is worth saving, shouldn’t they be looking to applaud the nation’s achievements and seeking common ground and unity on its 250th anniversary?

And if not, why should the rest of us take any other their advice seriously?
