Presidential historians will note that the re-election of President Donald Trump was not secured in November of 2020, but nine months earlier in February. In a span of two days, Democrats displayed to the country why their party should not be given political power.
In Iowa, Democrats could not conduct a simple presidential caucus with relatively few voters participating. The totals were not announced on Monday night due to “irregularities.” The embarrassment even caused liberal media outlets to denounce the Democratic Party’s ineptitude.
By the next day, only 71% of the vote had been released. Clearly, the bungling leads many to suspect that the party establishment was once again trying to deny a victory to an outsider like Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders. Four years ago, party insiders and media outlets like CNN worked with Hillary Clinton to rig the nomination process and steal it from Sanders. It is déjà vu for supporters of Sanders, who finished a strong second behind South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg, although he secured more votes.
What is even more troubling is that the voter turnout in Iowa was below expectations, leading some Democrats to sound the alarm about the current field of candidates. No one candidate is exciting the Democratic Party base like former Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. It is a fractured field with the progressives and socialists trying to take control from the establishment wing of the Democratic Party.
The establishment’s favorite candidate is 50-year politician former Vice President Joe Biden. He performed horribly in Iowa, finishing fourth, and is hobbling into New Hampshire as a very diminished candidate. At the debate on Friday night, he even conceded that he will also lose in New Hampshire as well. According to Biden, “It's a long race. I took a hit in Iowa and I’ll probably take one here. Bernie won by 20 points last time. Usually it's the neighboring senators that do well.”
With Biden struggling, the door is open for former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg who will spend countless dollars to improve his name recognition and standing. The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is already bending the rules to allow Bloomberg to participate in upcoming debates and the favoritism will continue. The DNC does not want Sanders as their nominee because his socialist views are outside of the mainstream and he is unelectable in a national race against the president.
After the debacle of Iowa, Democrats made fools of themselves during the president’s State of the Union address on Tuesday night. Several members of Congress, including U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) boycotted the speech. Many of the ones that did attend acted like children. For example, there was hissing when the president announced that seven million Americans no longer needed food stamps. As U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) noted, “Now think about what that reveals that they are rooting for Americans in poverty to be trapped in dependence. That’s seven million people that have gotten jobs, that are providing for their kids.”
The worst offender on Tuesday night was the de-facto leader of the Democratic Party, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). It began with her disrespectful and abbreviated announcement of the President of the United States. It continued during his speech as she waved her hands, shook her head and audibly muttered on several occasions. At certain points, she was seen pointing to members of the Democratic Party’s caucus on the house floor. During emotional parts of the speech, Pelosi remained seated, despite the positive news the president was reporting.
Of course, she highlighted her “performance” by ripping up the president’s speech at the conclusion. This type of disrespect was unprecedented in modern American history. Certainly, GOP House Speakers never treated Democratic Presidents Clinton or Obama in such a manner.
Pelosi ripped up the speech that included the names of American heroes that the president recognized. She ripped up a speech that outlined Trump’s tremendous achievements as president. She ripped up a speech that gave many powerful reasons for Americans to vote for another term for President Trump. Finally, she ripped it up because of her anger of the precarious position that Democrats are now facing.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich believes that Pelosi should be censured for her outrageous behavior. Others think that Pelosi should be removed from her position as House Speaker. George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley tweeted that “The ripping up of the speech reduced the Speaker to the level of troll.”
Sadly, Democrats will never penalize their own leader for the mistreatment of President Trump. The best way for Pelosi to be penalized is for the American people to deliver majority control of the U.S. House of Representatives back to the Republican Party after the upcoming election. In effect, this will “fire” Pelosi as House Speaker, and, hopefully, send her to a much-needed political retirement.
Trump will be reelected and they WILL get violent.
Hopefully, we will return their gifts with interest and bring this infection to a well-deserved cure.
It can’t be emphasized enough, re-electing DJT will not be enough.
At the federal and local levels, Republicans must defeat the Democrat Senators, Representatives, Governors, Secretaries of State, Attorneys General, Mayors and Judges in order to regain control of this country.
“Trump will be reelected and they WILL get violent.”
This along with RBG’s departure from the Supreme Court will TOTALLY unhinge the Rats. Can’t wait!
GET OUT AND VOTE!
“ At the federal and local levels, Republicans must defeat the Democrat Senators, Representatives, Governors, Secretaries of State, Attorneys General, Mayors and Judges in order to regain control of this country.”
You are so right. You know the Dems are thinking the same thing re democrats. They’re now flooding Virginia as did New York with illegal drivers licesces/voter registration
They prob want the popular vote. Will look bad if Trump pulls a brutal landslide
Bloomberg will come rescue them all come the ‘indecision’ where ‘someone else wins’ in South Carolina. Watch them all nicely form a line to get their new vacation homes. Where will Bernie’s be this year?
Don’t you love it? The Democrats are allowing a Republican oligarch to buy the Democrat party, fun times.
Officially, at least.
Let this be fair warning to ALL AMERICANS!
What happens when LIEberal Democrats are elected to public office?
LIEberal Democrats LIE TO, CHEAT AND STEAL FROM We The People!
LIEberal Democrats routinely violate the law and ignore the US Constitution!
LIEberal Democrats routinely destroy once viable and thriving cities and states!
Want proof? See San Francisco! Chicago! Baltimore! Los Angeles! Detroit! Minneapolis! See California! Oregon! Washington! Colorado! Illinois! New York! And now, Virginia!
TAXMAN: “A vote for ANY LIEberal, whether it be in a local, state or federal election, is a vote against America!”
POTUS: “A vote for any Democrat in 2020 is a vote for the rise of radical socialism and the destruction of the American dream!”
TAXMAN: “America cannot survive a LIEberal victory in 2020!”
There is no path to the White House for the Dems this cycle no matter who the nominee is and they know it.
The entire purpose of thr SeinfeldImpeachment was to take our Biden so that a radical lefty is the nominee and they are crushed in the general. Pelosi’s staged temper tantrum is also part and parcel to this.
Democrats (smart ones anyway) know that the radical left will never be able to win a national election.. and that 2020 is a loss. But if they run a “moderate” and he loses the far left will scream see we didn’t go far enough left and gain even more momentum and power... so the goal since they will lose anyway is to make sure they get a rabid leftist as the nominee and they get crushed. This instantly knee caps the far left and the party can moderate for the 2024 cycle when the actually may have a shot at winning.
Everything the Dems are doing is to intentionally throw the 2020 election. Classic rope a dope for the far left in their party. Give them exactly what they want and knee cap them with it.
