Leftist media desperate to portray Democrats thinking for themselves

When I saw this headline in the WSJ — “Fractious Democrats Show Rare Unity” — I thought, What journalist who has been alive the last sixteen years would write that?  Then, as I searched for the article, I found two others with essentially the same headline and storyline.

Anybody who watches the Democrats knows that they almost always vote in lockstep.  Of course, most journalists, who pretend they are independent, also write in lockstep. 

This is from the AP: “Democrats embrace a shutdown fight in a rare moment of unity against Trump.”

And here is CBS, back in 2004: “Democrats show rare Unity.”

This year’s presidential election will feature, by most counts, an unprecedented amount of money raised, advertisements produced and miles traveled. But perhaps more surprising, the 2004 election is also expected to feature an unheard of level of cooperation within a usually fractious party: the Democrats.

Many Democrats like Joe Biden pretend they are moderates but run the government as extreme leftists.  Biden surrounded himself with unelected bureaucrats who were extreme leftists. 

Many Democrats, especially those in swing districts, use talking points as they are running to pretend they are moderates, but when they get to D.C., they go along with the extreme left agenda. 

How do you get people like Biden and Dick Durbin, who ran against Roe v. Wade, to move to where they think there should be no restrictions on ending the life of a baby?

How do you go from Schumer being for a strong border to being for an open border and not having a problem with illegals getting government benefits even though it is against the law?

How is it possible that Democrats never cared as the Biden administration lost track of hundreds of thousands of kids and never really...

DemocRATs are herd animals. They follow the craziest of their flock.

Therefore, the blanket statement that “Democrats refused to stand or clap for a little boy fighting cancer” is not accurate, although many appeared to remain seated while their Republican counterparts stood and applauded.

Many Democrats like Joe Biden pretend they are moderates but run the government as extreme leftists.

Joe Biden pulled that off in 2020 because he promised to us that he was a center-left politician and that his presidency was going to have us "return to normalcy". Obviously, he failed to do that.

It'll be difficult for the Democrats to pull off that kind of stunt again in 2028 because they've already conned us in 2020.
