Dems' ‘new’ agenda? A recycled copy of Trump’s playbook
The Hill ^ | July 25, 2017 | Kayleigh McEnany

Democrats have had a full eight months to digest their humiliating 2016 electoral defeat. Eight months to write a post mortem. Eight months to develop a new platform. Eight months to show the American people they deserve a chance to govern.

But instead of self-critique, introspection and innovative solutions, Democrats have offered excuses, complaining and Russian collusion conspiracy theories. In an effort to engender enthusiasm for 2018, Democrats unleashed a “new” agenda on Monday, which amounted to little more than a stale attempt at mimicking President Donald Trump

.

The name alone suggests the new Democratic plan is the work of a fledgling party, lacking in creativity and effort. “A Better Deal: Better Jobs, Better Wages, Better Future” sounds a whole lot like the 2016 Republican plan entitled “A Better Way.” A look at the details proves no more inspiring than the name....

The Dramacrats feeble attempts at “coming back” resemble the old black and white footage of wacky old prototype airplanes that collapse, explode, and go down in flames before ever leaving the ground.....

They’ve been working all this time to come up with a new slogan that includes the word “deal”.

the democrats don’t have an image problem. They have a problem with their character. There’s not an honest thinking person walking on this earth that doesn’t know the democrats are lying.

And the problem is that people get angry at the people who tell them the truth, rather than getting angry at the ones that lied to them.

Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s attempt at selling the agenda was equally unoriginal. “Working people from the heartland to the cities are struggling in a rigged economy and a system stacked against them"

And since when have the Democrats cared about “working people from the heartland?"

If "those people from the heartland" aren't queer, tranny, brown, black, snowflakes, welfare queens, sucking off the govt teat, or in need of abortion, the Dems don't care a fig for them. As soon as they renounce their fetishism for the weirdos and freaks people MAY start voting for them again. But they are the party of lies and misdirection, so people may want years of proof that the Dems are truly reformed to avoid the old political switcheroo. Republicans pull that crap with us all the time, too.

They never had an original thought. Always stealing from others.

And their campaign slogan “Love Trumps Hate” was pretty stupid embedding Trump’s name in the slogan.

The Dems trying to imitate Trump is like Tiny Tim trying to tell someone, “Make my day”....they don’t have what it takes to pull it off.
