‘We’ve Done F—ing Horrible’: Democrats Blame ‘Messaging’ for Failures
Breitbart ^ | 4/13/2022 | Jacob Bliss

Posted on 04/14/2022 9:59:27 AM PDT by Signalman

Democrats, who have continuously had messaging problems through the current election cycle, have now blamed messaging itself for their failures months before the general election.

Democrats across the country are claiming they have “done a lousy job at highlighting their accomplishments in a year plus of unified power in Washington” and are using that as the source of their problems leading up to the November midterm elections, according to the Hill.

In fact, the Democrats believe they are in so much trouble that one strategist told the Hill, “I’m not going to BS. We’ve done a f—ing horrible job, and sometimes I think we deserve to lose big in November. Democrats can say whatever they want, but it’s not honest.” The strategist added that the Democrats “need to wake up fast” because they don’t have a narrative to push.

Even Hillary Clinton, who knows about failing when she lost against former President Donald Trump in 2016 and is rumored to be making a return, said her party needs to get better at touting accomplishments. Earlier this month, Clinton said, “I’m not quite sure what the disconnect is between the accomplishments of the administration, and this Congress, and the understanding of what’s been done, and the impact it will have on the American public.”

“Pedo groomer” is an effective variant, as is “Okay, groomer”, which plays upon the expression, “Okay, boomer”.

And the image of a “Boomer Groomer” ... lots of millenials as self-centered as many are, won’t like that one bit.

The cautionary phrase, "They've groomed you" might carry some weight, since it's true. It's an impactful description of the the Left has done to their generation. "They're grooming you" should be told to kids in school so they can be wary of it. It can be applied to everything from CRT to global warming.

“They’re not teaching you science, they’re grooming you to be a left-wing activist.”

FINALLY we have the correct word to describe what’s been happening in the schools.

They don’t use the term “left wing activist.” They use the term “change agent.”

It’s not “messaging”, unless you consider the clarity with which people understand the message, messaging.

They need to claim that the lock downs, jab mandates, kindergaden trans indoctrination, “mostly peaceful protests”, domestic energy sabotage, mask mandates, global warming hysteria, persecution of the “unvaxxed”, censorship of free speech, and foreign policy weakness are now all Republican things because the “parties have switched”.

They use the term “change agent.”

I once saw a young AA women on television wear a t-shirt with the phrase, "I am a Change Agent" printing on it. I hope that someday I come across someone with that shirt so I can walk up with a ten and ask for two fives.

‘claiming they have “done a lousy job at highlighting their accomplishments...’

Hey, it’s tough when you have no accomplishments to speak of.

“it demoralizes them to where they turn against the GOP”

I didn’t get demoralized by leftie propaganda. I got demoralized by watching the GOP take every victory we gave them for 25 years and accomplish almost nothing with it.

Let’s see if I can remember anything good they have done. Well, Dubya gave me a tax cut (that expired for no good reason). Besides that, we won a few victories in the courts on the 2nd Amendment and rolling back some laws against abortion restrictions. In the courts, not Congress, so I can’t really give much credit to the GOP on that, since all the heavy lifting was done by political advocacy groups.

That’s about all I can think of that I have seen them actually accomplish in 25 years. Should I not be demoralized?

“FINALLY we have the correct word to describe what’s been happening in the schools.”

“FINALLY” is right!. It hit me like a ton of bricks on how powerful this word is to frame the narrative and more. I have seen it with my own eyes - how they recoil like Dracula in the light, or when shown a crucifix. It is stronger than the left’s characterizing and dismissing everything a “right wing conspiracy” that exposes their crimes and evil.

No more conspiracy here - the left is “grooming” everything as you say - climate hoaxers, other people’s children, etc etc. Hey, look - Ketanji is the first black groomer to be confirmed to the highest court! Historic indeed! She is not entitled by her own words to be described as a “woman” ... nope, never. Groomer she is!

To be fair, sexualizing children in kindergarten is a hard sell regardless of the wordsmithing....

Boohoo, the unsophisticated misinformed masses refuse to believe our lies.

Not everything is a sales job. Sh*t in a glitzy package is still sh*t and people have been fooled more than once already and they know it.

What about accomplishments? When you have none worthwhile, you need to very cautious even talking about them.

If anybody says she is the first black woman SCOTUS judge, ask if that person is a biologist.
