Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries Doubts ‘Massive Mandate’ for Republicans: ‘It Doesn’t Exist’
Breitbart ^ | 11/19/2024 | Hannah Knudsen

Minority Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said that the “mandate” that Republicans have been talking about following President-elect Donald Trump’s victory — and the victory of other Republicans, taking the Senate and maintaining the House majority — “doesn’t exist.”

Jeffries made the remark during a press conference alongside other Democrat leaders on Tuesday, telling reporters that he has been looking for the “massive mandate” his Republican colleagues have been touting, but he has not been able to find it, despite the GOP emerging victorious on Election Day.

“Despite the claims of some of my Republican colleagues who have spent a lot of time over the last two weeks talking about some big, massive mandate, I’m looking for it,” the Democrat said.

I agree with him. The mandate is Trump’s. I wish Republicans would remember that.

There is no objective measurement of a mandate. It is what people think it is. And if you have to argue that there isn’t one, you’ve already lost.

<><>Dems were rejected coast to coast,
<><>Ohio Sen Sherrod Brown, longtime champ of working-class, was toppled by a Republican
<><>Biden’s party is increasingly dominated by elite voters.
<><>Pa’s Democrat Sen Bob Casey lost, but refuses to concede,
<><>Trump Won More Black Voters Than Any Republican in 48 Years—
<><>Trump won 101 Chicago precincts-—home to high numbers of city workers,
<><>Trump won 22% of the Chicago vote-—increased from 2020’s 16%
<><>Pelosi’s own deep-blue S/Francisco saw a 7-point swing to Donald Trump.

And Hakeem doesn’t look in the mirror. The F’n Democrats NEVER had a mandate to push through their disgusting agenda, and that’s why they finally LOST - BIG TIME! I wonder if the now chastised Mika and Scarface will have enough courage to point that out to him.

Excellent post, Liz. That’s a great compilation and shows how the Rats are crumbling.

The more the Dems in the Senate and House oppose Trump, the weaker they get, and the stronger Trump becomes.

Pelosi’s step-n-fetch-it Hakeem should keep his mouth shut, and get the Jeni’s ice cream and shots of vodka when her little silver bell rings for him.

Then try to resist it, Hakeem. You’ll find out how real it is.

Hakeem is only in the position he has because he is the token lawn jockey of the DNC. Worthless clown, and DEI hire.....no more, no less.

“I agree with him. The mandate is Trump’s. I wish Republicans would remember that.”
____________________________________________________________

Trump has 2.5 million more votes than Harris, out of ~150 million total voters. That’s a little more than a 3% lead.

3% is neither a “landslide” nor a “mandate.”

Our majority in the House will be in the single digits, and the Senate majority will be 6 votes.
