House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) appeared on ABC News’ “This Week” on Sunday and proceeded to blame Donald Trump for every problem the United States faces despite the fact that the new commander-in-chief has been in office less than a month and the Democrats were in power for most of the last four years. OK, Hakeem.
After describing how Jeffries droned on about the high cost of living and how it was Trump’s fault, my colleague Becca Lower wrote:
Trump has been in office for just over three weeks. Unless someone invents a time machine for him to hop into and correct the liberals' mismanagement and malfeasance, what Dems are suggesting is fantasy on its face. As innovative as Elon Musk is, I wouldn't suggest holding your breath for him to get that sort of contraption on the assembly line at Tesla or SpaceX.
Perhaps the most priceless moment in the interview came when host John Karl read some reality to Jeffries in the form of cold, hard numbers—approval numbers. Watch as the New York congressman’s face falls... and falls... as he is delivered his own fact-filled fevered nightmare:
🚨Hakeem Jeffries left grasping for a response after ABC's Jon Karl reads off massive favorability numbers for Trump:
“Donald Trump's favorability rating is HIGHER than it ever was the first time around.”
63% favor govt recognizing only two sexes
60% favor deporting illegals… pic.twitter.com/cnWEWOZlpA— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) February 16, 2025
The tweet continues (as Hakeem continues to sweat):
60% favor deporting illegals
60% favor expanding O&G production
59% favor declaring emergency at southern border
Trump has put Democrats in the position of opposing his massively popular positions — “defending the indefensible” — and they have no coherent answers.
My favorite part about this whole clip is the expression of utter shock on Jeffries' face. He looks like a deer in the headlights on a dark highway. I was half expecting him to splutter, "But, but… CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS! THERE’S A CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS!”
(To be fair, he did finally regain his composure and go back to gaslighting, but that priceless moment will live on nontheless.)
Maybe take a sick day: WATCH: Jeffries Continues to Beat the Same Tired Drum on Trump, Economy That Lost Dems 2024
It can’t be fun being a Democrat right now. Let me see if I can find my violin… nope, sorry, it’s nowhere to be found.

Poor Jeffries. Imagine if you had to face the camera, tell the people at home that the last four years of malaise were actually great, Biden was a genius, and the Democrats are going to take back the country… when you’re constantly seeing unambiguous news that President Donald Trump is restoring America’s pride with each passing day—and the people are loving it.

“Trump is responsible for Bidenflation” just isn’t going to cut it, Hakeem.
Drink up, Heels Up.
How can anyone with one neuron still firing be dumb enough to believe the current high cost of living is Trump’s fault? He has to think his audience is nothing but idiots. On second thought, since only Democrats watch him, he’s probably right.
Hilarious.
Fortunately, Hakeem has supporting more waste and corruption in govt to fall back on.
Of course what’s happened over the last four years is Trump’s fault. After all, he won the 2020 election.
You have perfectly described a “dog whistle” that the Dems are always using for their own demise.
HJ (Hakeem Jefferies...or Hand Job...whichever you decide) is so not finished effing around. This cat and the entire liberal democrat party has A LOT of finding out coming their way. Stay tuned. If the dems dont 100% alter their agenda, they will cease to exist as a viable political party by the time midterms happen on November 3, 2026. I predict a shocking number of them will either be serving time for serious real crimes against the people of the US or be caught up in answering to very ugly congressional investigations. Fingers crossed for incarceration. Tish James, Kathy Hochul, Jack Smith, All of the 1/6 “select committee”, and on and on and on....
HJ has truly been gifted with a naturally dumb looking face. Heres the full CBS interview. Man he sounds dumb too. Really dumb.

We can say Jeffries is a dipshit, but guess who won’t or can’t?
All the white liberals who post on message boards and organize and fund democrat campaigns.
The Democrats are in bad shape for the next 2 to 3 election cycles.
