It's Even Worse for the Dems Than They Thought And It Will Get Worse Before It Gets Better
PJ Media ^ | 12/25/2024 | Rick Moran

Posted on 12/25/2024 10:35:29 AM PST by SeekAndFind

PJ Media's Matt Margolis posted on Tuesday about a heavyweight "Round Table" hosted by four heavyweight Democrats and reported by the New York Times. The four Democrats are Frank Bruni, the long-time political analyst for the NY Times; former Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan; Anat Shenker-Osorio, a campaign adviser and the host of the podcast “Words to Win By”; and Democratic strategist Lis Smith.

The upshot of the "Round Table" was grim.

"Many of the Democrats who succeeded this cycle — our best over-performers in House races, for instance — are people who ran against the Democratic Party brand," Lis Smith pointed out. "Trump tore down the blue wall in the industrial Midwest, but he also expanded his vote the most in our bluest and most urban areas."

That strategy by Democrats in, for the most part, purple districts probably saved the party from total disaster. As it was, they actually picked up one seat in the House. And the three seats the GOP picked up in the Senate could have easily been more if some candidates hadn't run away from Biden/Harris.

Democratic disaster can't be found in the numbers.

Politico:

In a trio of focus groups, even voters who previously backed Democrats cast the party as weak and overly focused on diversity and elites, according to research by the progressive group Navigator Research.


When asked to compare the Democratic Party to an animal, one participant compared the party to an ostrich because “they’ve got their heads in the sand and are absolutely committed to their own ideas, even when they’re failing.” Another likened them to koalas, who “are complacent and lazy about getting policy wins that we really need.”

Working people are leaving the Democrat party. They are becoming only Rich elites, government workers, radical feminists and uninformed immigrants.

All the democrats need to do be pro American and actually mean it, and stop coddling the freaks. They will do neither.

The democrat party is now officially the party of the federal government and the ruling elites who benefit from it. The GOP has the chance to be the party of the people if they don’t screw it up.

(Only deviants, weirdos, ... vote Democrat)

This is an open, public mockery of Almighty God.

An open defiance against God that cannot and will not end well.

Genesis chapter 19 again.

(It is completely delusional and madness to teach that a man can become a woman and that a woman can become a man.)

I hope that for once the GOP will not live up to the name the Stupid Party that pundit Samuel Francis bestowed upon it several years ago.

The results should not be misinterpreted.

Democrats lost because they lied about Biden, the told people not to believe their wallets about inflation and the economy, etc.

Harris was an awful candidate who had ZERO charm and made ZERO effort to distance herself from Biden’s policies.

2028 will be an entirely new game without Trump.

If things go well and the economy is good, then Vance should win easily (think Bush41 in 1988).

If the economy is not rocking and if inflation is still raging, then a smooth Democrat can win.

“smooth Democrat” = one that misrepresents very well.

They’re not stupid, they are playing their part.

Desperately hoping they come off as well meaning but stupid maroons.

They remind me of the Washington Generals.

The bigwigs of the Party will never realize that there is something wrong with their agenda. They can’t admit error or ever change their true behavior.

God may not be a Republican

But Satan is certainly a Democrat

This article and sentiment would have been unthinkable in three months ago.

Every politician of any party is a dung beetle, with every breath and act aimed at building and maintaining that precious pile of dung. It’s just human nature.

Democrats are the party of culture elites - Academia, political, entertainment... ‘elites’ . They’re NOT the party of rich ‘elites’ unless you’re talking about inherited weath.

Folks who EARNED their money. People like Musk and friends are moving to the Republican party too.

We don’t have ‘class envy’ in our party or class struggle - you can look at Trump and see that... We don’t resent the ‘1%’ If you earned it, were willing to work for it - fine. You’re one of our winners. No struggle there. But if you got in based on legacy or lies? No, then you belong with the democrats.

Democrats have permanently tied themselves to the homosexual agenda LGBT LGBTQ and the whole “transgender” lie from Satan

And this will be their downfall

They cannot deny it after the years of investment they put into these things

So they will have to double-down on being Godless Reprobates.

Lest the infighting tear them apart.

It’s a death spiral - they made a deal with the Deceiver and he’ll destroy them too after they do his anti-God works
