Democrats seek to 'sell' accomplishments ahead of tough midterms
FOX News ^ | March 12, 2022 | By Marisa Schultz

Faced with tough upcoming midterm elections, inflation and high gas prices, Democrats say they need to do a better job selling the American people on President Biden's accomplishments.

While key priorities of Biden's domestic agenda have died in Congress – namely the Build Back Better social spending plan and voting rights reforms – members of the DNC are taking stock of what Biden has gotten done and pushing a message of monumental accomplishment.

"We have a record — a record to be proud of, an agenda that addresses the biggest concerns here in America, in people’s lives, the message that resonates," President Biden told the DNC faithful Thursday. "And now — now what we have to do is we have to sell it with confidence, clarity, conviction and repetition."

Democrats acknowledged voters back home are grappling with price spikes on everything from gas to groceries but sought to distance Biden from causing inflation. Party faithful echoed the White House message that the pain at the pump is the result of Russian President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine, and the higher prices are a necessary sacrifice to stand with the people of Ukraine.

"I do think that from the Republican side there is going to be blame," Georgia Democrat Lydia Glaize, a candidate for the state House of Representatives, said of the GOP blaming Biden for high gas prices. "But I can tell you from an American point of view that it's not our fault. We know for sure that this lies in the hands of Russia."

Floyd McKissick, Jr., a former state senator who is active in the North Carolina Democratic Party, said it's "imperative" that Democrats tie the origin of inflation to the start of the pandemic and global supply chain issues that happened on former President Trump's watch.

Our country getting through tomorrow’s DST change will be considered a huge Biden accomplishment.

The Democrats have a hell of a lot of accomplishments. They are making great progress at destroying the United States. In fact they have almost accomplished it. They have destroyed the credibility of the CDC. They have destroyed the Justice system. They have destroyed the Court system. They have destroyed the medical profession. They are working on destroying the Military. They have almost succeeding in that. They destroyed the Legal System. They have the different Races hating each other. They destroyed the Constitution. Probably one more Democrat Administration is all it will take for them to attain their goal: To wit} The total and complete destruction of the United States of America.

Yes, the present POS in the WH is a white version of 0bama. The leftist have long been indoctrinated in selling the world on what the ‘Masters’ want. They just can’t help themselves. They believe their own lies.

It is amazing to see a reincarnation of Barack Obama as our POTUS.

Biden is a one (1) big white failure.

I think the Liberals are finding out out how popular the Liberal ideas really are and they are not the solution.

If you offer Biden a penny for his thoughts, you can expect change back.

If there is an epitome of a “short sale” this will be it.

“Democrats seek to ‘sell’ accomplishments ahead of tough midterms”

Their accomplishments are about as real as a $3 bill.

LOL! Right… If the Dems think this will sell, we will know in 3-4 weeks.

It won’t sell.

From the article, emphasis mine:C'mon FJB, you've got at least four handlers: Susan Rice, Ron Klain, ValJar and the biggie, nobama. Is this the best they can come up with? Not very original. Of course it's original to you. Everything in your old, demented life is original to you, isn't it?

If destruction is an accomplishment, then the Biteme administration has something to crow about.

And the higher prices are a necessary sacrifice to stand with the people of Ukraine.

I'm sure the millions who can least afford it are happy to pay $100. to fill their tanks to support Ukraine. Gak!

What a sad joke..Nobody is buying this. No sale. So pathetic!

Accomplishments? Have they changed the meaning of that word too?

To paraphrase: ‘Put ‘accomplishments’ in one hand and ‘sh!t’ in the other and see which one fills up first!

*SMIRK*
