Bloomberg: Democrats headed for 'wipeout' in November without immediate course correction
Yahoo News ^ | February 22, 2022

Posted on 02/22/2022 6:40:38 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

Michael Bloomberg writes in a new op-ed that he is "deeply concerned" the Democratic Party is "headed for a wipeout in November, up and down the ballot."

The former New York City mayor and Democratic presidential candidate points to the recent recall of three school board members in San Francisco while making his argument in Bloomberg News.

"Coming from America's most liberal city, those results should translate into a 7 to 8 on the Richter scale, because the three main factors that drove the recall are not unique to the Bay Area," Bloomberg writes.

Bloomberg notes that a "recent Democratic Party poll showed that voters perceive it as being too 'focused on the culture wars' - from renaming schools to defunding the police."

"But the advice that party leaders are giving members of Congress - to 'correct the record' when Republicans criticize them on schools and culture - isn't going to cut it," he added.

The Democrat Party is headed for many years in the wilderness…

Only the Republican Party can prevent that from happening.

The Assistant Democrats are up to that challenge.

Vote rigging and cheating can compensate for many insane policies.

I’ve said this for a while now, nothing changes, GOP will gain 80+ seats... and if things keep going the same way they are for another 9 months, don’t be surprised if they gain triple digits.

Sadly, only 13 Dems up in the Senate, so while the GOP will almost certainly retake the house, they won’t have any shot at a super majority, even if they ran the board.

Wasn’t he a Republican mayor?

It depends on who counts the ballots.

I do not think the Most Extensive Voter Fraud Organization will just sit on its hands.

Republicrats better step up. I seem to recall a lot of talk of noway brandon would beat Trump in Nov. 2020. Don’t let them know how many votes they need to come up with too far in advance. We could end up like canadistan.

I think the GOP will be lucky to get even 30 seats.

That could change between now and November, but at this point in time I haven't seen anything remotely resembling a coherent message from the GOP on anything.

Just as Bloomberg correctly states that "correcting the record" isn't going to cut it for the Democrats, I'd point out that "Biden sucks" isn't going to get anyone to vote for Republican candidates who wasn't already going to vote for them anyway.

“Course correction” in Liberal speak means...”Step up all voter fraud efforts to maximum velocity and efficacy.”

There will not be a normal November election.
It will make the 2020 election look normal by comparison.

We need to start referring to the Democrats as “Socialist Democrats” whenever we speak of them. If we can ensure fair elections, the “Socialist Democrats” will cease to exist in a short period of time. They are responsible for all of the government imposed misery we are now experiencing.

Yeah, no, their drooling morally special needs base is huge and easily rabble roused. Under control of useful idiots to our nation the DNC, media and academia have spent decades carefully crafting a horde of nitwits — and even reprobates or criminals like those in AntiFa or the Burn Loot Murder wing of BLM — who are collectively the cold dead hand of the USSR still grasping for our collective throats.

Even a disaster for Democrats in November will not make them go away, they’ll just double down on wickedness, perversion, madness and on spewing bile … and voter fraud.

Not really. They know what emergency measures are in place for November elections. Elections are now an existential threat to our democracy as the Beltway rulers feel. They will now be controlled and manipulated to yield the result and quality they want for any and all purposes they want.

Yep, where's the alternative. Where's the commercials explain what they (the Republicans) differ from the Libs on inflation, Energy Independence, Crime, CRT, Mandates, etc.

Republicans should be going for the jugular starting months ago, but they are more worried about protecting their RINO buddies.
