‘These people are crazy’ is the campaign Democrats should fear
The Washington Examiner ^ | February 25, 2026 | Salena Zito

“I forgot how fun this was. I could watch it for three more hours.” This observation from a young, male conservative encapsulates how middle America viewed President Donald Trump’s historic State of the Union speech.

Trump delivered what they were looking for, from plans for the economy, celebrations of Olympic wins, spotlights on forgotten Americans, and, not least of all, sharp contrasts between his policies and those of the Democratic Party.

Trump did it all in spades, and with a lot of unintentional help from the Democrats, who did everything from heckling him to holding a bizarre resistance event that included furries, to sitting stoically when 80-20 issues were offered for them on a silver platter.

I also think Trump realized how evil these people are with such an open display of hostility toward the American people.

Who was the umm, portly woman in the burgundy dress sitting near the SC judges? She was on the Democrat side but was standing up all the time. And usually looking around to see if the Dems were standing.

"Those people are crazy!!!"

It should be the R's campaign motto for the midterms.

The Republicans running in safe, uncontested districts with sizeable war chests should blanket their media markets with ads attacking Democrats in general - nationalize how crazy that party is. This would overlap in many cases with contested races, and news travels and it would inform the nation (things the media will not report) and help shift public opinion. Even if it is deep red states and districts where some of them are - get these ads on the air through election day.

series of ad themes:
“a Democrat legislator even has proposed giving young children pornography for quote ‘educational purposes’. This is not a fringe left wing blogger - these are policy proposals from actual elected Democrat officials.”

“Democrats have proposed taxing basic goods and services such as food and grocery delivery - even dog walking...jobs the working class depend on for income - both threatening jobs and making things less affordable.”

“Democrats are so extreme they refused to stand for grieving parents who lost their daughter to a terrible murder”

“Democrats are so extreme they even opposed eliminating taxes on tips, overtime, and social security benefits, calling the bill ‘tax cuts for the rich’ - how many ‘rich’ people do you know who get tips?”

And of course there are so many other things to highlight for a continuing series of ads.

Now who here has the ear of someone who could get this idea out there to them?

She was clapping like crazy for Trump. I don’t think she was a Democrat. She was getting in their faces.

It was Republican Representative Kat Cammack of Florida, who opted to sit with the Democrats.

I think that there were plenty of empty seats on the Democrat side available.

The measly four SCOTUS members that showed up got called out right to their filthy faces. Maybe none of these pukes will attend next year.
