Savoring the brutal election lessons for Democrats: Expect all hell to break loose within the Democrat party, with powerful key factions at each others’ throats

Expect all hell to break loose within the Democrat party, with powerful key factions at each others’ throats. Voters in multiple states repudiated the radical wing of the Democrat party that had seized control of the party’s agenda.

Republicans swept the statewide offices in Virginia, a state that had recently tantalized Democrat hopes of national dominance by swinging from red to purple to blue. Even if Phil Murphy ends up winning the governorship of New Jersey as troves of mail-in ballots are added to the totals when counting resumes in the morning (a story replicating what happened in some swing states in 2020), the message is clear: the public does not want to enact the vision of the Squad as our new reality.

Minneapolis voters rejected replacement of the city’s police department with a social worker-laden Department of Public Safety by 12 point margin. This in a city that has twice elected radical Ilhan Omar. Buffalo, NY voters corrected their mistake in a low turnout primary election that nominated radical socialist India Walton as the Democrat candidate for mayor, and wrote-in the name of incumbent Mayor Byron Brown by a large margin. Voters do not want the radical agenda enacted.

The prospects for the Democrats’ Build Back Bankrupt bill ever becoming law just became vanishingly small.  As Charles C.W. Cooke asks the right questions:

 Why on earth would Senators Joe Manchin, Kyrsten Sinema, Maggie Hassan, and Catherine Cortez Masto continue to acquiesce with their party’s extraordinarily foolish attempt to shove a set of FDR-sized spending programs through a 50–50 Senate? Such as: Why on earth would a swathe of moderate House Democrats agree to go along with it, when, by all appearances, they are already going to have their work cut out for them next year? (snip)

After this “loss” RAT Party will accelerate their lunacy. They know they have one year before the midterms and will try to wreck as much of the country as possible before they can be stopped.

Good point, Liz. I’m reading Heather MacDonald’s the War on Cops this week. Lots of great insights on that issue. Her writing is very dense — and powerful.

Yep.

When all else fails, you are losing and out of ammunition, call your opponent a racist.
