RE :”They are trying to throw a dead cat up against the wall and hoping that it will stick - desperation ...”

There is something useful behind this victim line for Obama as there was when they used it for the stimulus.

There is a large group of Americans 30% to 40% who are emotionally triggered whenever Obama and Dems say that the GOP only opposes these ideas because Obama is for them now.
Most of them are non-whites who see Obama as themselves.

So this ‘rooting for failure’ line is a dog whistle to them.

Personality cults thrive on victim-hood, it substitutes for results :
They are attacking our guy. They hate him. They want him to fail’ triggers the rage and circle the wagons.

In the last days of WWII, writes Victor Klemperer, a Jew who was hiding among German farmers, when the defeat was expected and assured, all Germans he encountered blamed the generals, Goring, and others close to the Fuhrer, but never the Fuhrer himself.

I didn’t wish or root for Zero to fail. It’s because he and his ultraleft policies WERE failure. Rooting for his failure would be like rooting for water during a heavy shower.
