Former Clinton pollster Mark Penn went on Fox News to report that "I've never seen anything like this in over 40 years of polling. Those voters who have a favorable opinion of the Democratic Party have plunged to only 29%. That's an incredible loss of moderate, working-class voters. They need those voters to win elections. And having extreme leftists like AOC and Bernie Sanders carrying the Democrat banner is not helping."
Minority Leader of the Senate Chuck Schumer pointed out that "these poll figures came before the launch of our new campaign to shout down Republican politicians at their home district town hall meetings with constituents. In Wyoming, 500 people packed into the Gryphon Theatre at the Laramie Civic Center for Rep. Harriet Hageman's town hall. At least 75% of them were Democrats. Our people were so disruptive that she couldn't answer any of the other attendees' questions. In Nebraska, incessant chats of 'tax the rich' totally drowned out Rep. Mike Flood voice. This is just the early phase of our battle back to power."
Hageman observed that "this type of rowdy behavior is becoming commonplace in college towns across the country. The students don't realize that shouting down those whose views differ from theirs was a prime tactic of the Nazis when they were a minor Party during the Weimar Republic era in Germany."
Schumer admitted "I didn't know that, but obviously it was an effective strategy because the Nazi Party grew in popularity to become Germany's largest political Party. This enabled Hitler to eventually be appointed premier and later be elected president of Germany. Maybe the strategy will work similar miracles for us as we work to resist Trump's tyranny here."
Meanwhile, another dubious accomplishment by Democrats in 2024 was Chicago's 13th consecutive year as the American city with the most homicides: 573. The city has been continuously governed by Democrats for each of these years. Defunding the police is the Party's latest approach to dealing with crime. Mayor Brandon Johnson's latest budget eliminated 833 street-cop positions. The Chicago Board of Education voted to remove all police officers from Chicago Public Schools, including schools that wanted to keep them.
What does Snakehead say?
The number would have been higher but some were out burning cars.
