As Senate Democrats keep voting down the House Republicans’ clean CR to keep the government open — the House minority leader, Hakeem Jeffries, couldn’t even fill a little league baseball field for his YouTube livestream session.
It never drew more than a couple hundred viewers, watching party members ranting and raving over President Trump and the GOP.
Greg Gutfeld gets a bigger audience than Mr. Jeffries.
The round-the-clock telethon had to be ended before it was even halfway over.
Meanwhile, a rival White House feed was peaking at around 100,000 viewers.
Which reminds me, it’s so commonplace that I nearly forgot about it — both Democratic congressional leaders, Senator Chuck Schumer in the upper chamber and Mr. Jeffries in the House, are from Brooklyn, New York.
Unfortunately for them, Brooklyn is not representative of America.
Now, I’m not knocking Brooklyn.
Yet to have both national leaders from a very left-wing leaning blue county in a heavily blue state, seems like the very definition of a narrow-minded out of touch political party.
I mean, the national population is moving to the South and the Sun Belt and the Rockies — not exactly Brooklyn, New York.

His IQ couldn’t fill two digits.
He is proof that, well, sometimes folks just aren’t that bright.
Is it because it’s painful to look at his ugly mug?
To be fair, Hakeem’s low turn out rate may be more than lousy politics. The few times I have seen or heard him, he lacks the dynamic energy an effective public speaker needs in order to hold the slippery attention of the average listener.
Some call it Charm/ Charisma/ Moxy/ Fire In Da Belly. Someone like Van Jones would have made a more compelling speaker. Not that I want it from either of these Democrat/Socialists! I am remarking from an objective point of view.
**In fact, I’ve been looking for a local Dale Carnegie course for myself to take, just as a dare to myself.
Dollar Store Obama
Yep. Dollar Store or as some have posted TEMU-Obama.
I wish we could replace him with Hakeem Olajuwon....
Hakeem Jeffries, I’d just about bet a shiny new dime you could come pretty close to sucking a golf ball through a garden hose.
