Democrats Debate Themselves: Why Do We Suck?

Original Article

Posted By: Moritz55, 10/28/2022 1:46:34 AM

Twelve days before the election, Democrats have yet to lose the House or Senate, or confront the dire, your-lab-results-are-back-and-the-doctor-needs-to-see-you implications for a progressive agenda. Plenty of prominent party voices, however, believe it’s best to prepare in advance. It is one of the more notable features of the 2022 midterms — the readiness to perform an autopsy on a living patient. Many Democrats believe there is already sufficient evidence to make the question unavoidable: What the hell is our problem?

The people suck, their ideas suck and their motives are selfish and greedy, bordering on dictatorial. Any more questions?

Why you suck..the list is long but here are the main reasons: 1.. You actually believe the lies your party spreads especially on major issues…..Inflation Reduction Act…a major lie the Dems believe. 2. You are concerned more about people’s sex organs, what sex you want to identify with than real issues that effect peoples lives everyday. An awful press secretary and VP got their jobs not because of qualifications but because of gender race and sexual orientation. Too much focus on silly social engineering issues. Really you think a porous border is popular and having George Soros backed candidates helps your cause? You suck because you stopped representing and started dictating!

What have democrats done to help the average American? Answer: nothing. What have they done to make things worse for the average American? Answer: everything. Name one democrat politician who has done good for the average American? Answer: there are none. The whole democrat party is corrupt. All of them!

"a political moment that for most defies comprehension. As Nancy Pelosi put it ... “Part of it is, I can’t believe anybody would vote for these people.”" "there has never been a documented case of an operative or election analyst saying I’m not sure what to say about the results except that I have been wrong about everything." The author provides the answer to "Why Do We Suck?". The dems cannot comprehend WHY people would vote for Trump or MAGA. And they will NEVER admit that "have been wrong about everything", even though the electorate has realized that they are. Further "he or she would remain an unchallenged leader after losing an election or being under multiple simultaneous criminal investigations". An election that was rigged, as become more and more obvious and the investigations have become part of dem strategy to discredit and smear and have proven fruitless. When the investigations are themselves investigated it becomes clear that dems like Hillary Clintoon and Deep State operatives are at the root of any "evidence" that launched the investigations in the first place. The Jan 6 congressional probe has devolved into farce, as it well deserved to. The "Russia" meme was clearly dem slime. Dems DO suck. There are PROVEN investigations that show it. They are slimy and wrong in their thinking. The economic mess the country is in shows the result of their policies. They did what they wanted, celebrated when they did, and it blew up in our faces. Now they want our votes to certify their insane governing. Hopefully the electorate finally GETS IT and REMEMBERS IT for a LONG time.

As conservative Republicans raise their hands to moderate this debate. Q to candidate 1, it is true that you suck, however, it appears that party policy requires that as a pledge for funding. Would you elaborate on how you plan to suck even more if elected? You have 3 hours for your response.

Many voters will reject the characterization of Dr. Oz as merely 'a television physician.' He is a gifted cardiothoracic surgeon, respected in his field. His TV show was a side hustle. I did not support him in the primary (as a registered dimocrat, I couldn't vote for him anyway) and I thought McCormick to be a stronger candidate. Too bad Fetterman didn't watch the Oz show. Had he done so, he might not have had the stroke.

To paraphrase Ronald Reagan, Democrats know all about things that are not true. They think the Jan. 6 show trial, abortion clinics on every street corner, EV cars/green energy, phony investigations into Trump, and not enough 'equity' is what voters want. We simply want to live our lives as we see fit, without the government breathing down our necks.

A top Democrat in Georgia has chosen to shun his party's gubernatorial nominee, Stacey Abrams, and instead throw his support behind incumbent Republican Gov. Brian Kemp and the Republican candidate for lieutenant governor, Burt Jones. Kwanza Hall, the former Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor who lost in a runoff to the current Democratic lieutenant governor nominee, Charlie Bailey, made his announcement Friday, citing Kemp's ability to make "tough decisions" in "unprecedented circumstances," and Jones' plans to reduce crime and improve the state's education system. "While we don’t agree on every issue, it’s abundantly clear that Brian Kemp is a man of character, a strong leader, and someone who Georgians can trust

In a Twitter spat with the company’s new owner, Elon Musk, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., claimed that proceeds from her campaign merchandise go to charity groups. Ocasio-Cortez had slammed Musk’s new plan for Twitter users to pay $8 a month for verification. In response, he drew attention to a sweatshirt from her campaign merchandise store, costing nearly $60. She said the items are made in the USA and "all proceeds go to community organizing like our Homework Helpers program which gives private tutoring to kids who’ve needed learning support since COVID." The claim appears to be at odds with her own online merchandise store which explicitly states that

The U.S. and South Korea issued a joint warning to North Korea on Thursday, warning that any use of nuclear weapons would result in the end of Kim Jong Un's regime. North Korea fired an unprecedented 20 missiles in a single day on Wednesday amid extensive joint air force exercises between the U.S. and South Korea. Kim's regime has made veiled threats about nuclear weapons in recent days as well. "Any nuclear attack against the United States or its Allies and partners, including the use of non-strategic nuclear weapons, is unacceptable and will result in the end of the Kim regime," Austin said in a joint press conference

Conservatives ridiculed President Joe Biden’s "despicable" Wednesday speech in which he warned midterm voters of the threats to democracy ahead of election day. During his last address before the balance of power would be decided in Washington D.C., Biden pleaded with Americans to vote against Republicans, accusing them of being election deniers and MAGA extremists who have encouraged political violence, promoted former President Donald Trump’s "Big Lie" about the 2020 election and engaged in voter intimidation. Rather than focusing the on main issues voters are most concerned about, namely, rampant inflation and other economic woes, Biden’s speech pointed the finger at his political opponents.

The more we find out about the collusion that has been going on among the Biden administration, the security agencies and Big Tech, the more alarming it is — and the more unrepentant they are. The latest bombshell from The Intercept, based on communications unveiled in the federal lawsuit Missouri v. Biden, shows that the Department of Homeland Security has been having monthly meetings with Facebook and Twitter to pressure them to censor social-media posts about topics such as the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, the origins of COVID-19, the efficacy of COVID vaccines, racial justice and US support for the war in Ukraine — In other words, anything

Even the liberal media is conceding that the Red Wave is likely to be massive. It is just not that the GOP holds a substantial lead over Independents. In some blue states like New York, Connecticut, and Oregon, even some Democrats are coming home to the GOP. TIPP surveys confirm that the usual factors for the Dems' poor performance include immigration, crime, and economy. But one factor that matters the most to voters is also critical: honesty. Here, the Democrats have hurt themselves over Republicans unlike at any time in recent memory.

It is tempting to ascribe President Biden’s incessant lies to cognitive decline and the ethos of his lifelong profession. Politicians dissemble without shame – which, ironically, is why they constantly invoke their own honor and allegiance to the truth. Still, Biden’s latest string of whoppers – that gas prices were sky high and the economy was in the tank when he took office, that he convinced the Congress to pass student loan relief, that he’s a deficit hawk who has secured the border, that his son, Beau, died in Iraq – are so obviously false that it’s hard to believe even a politician in his right mind would make such claims.
Biden’s Energy ‘Windfall’ Tax Is
Election Theater For Economic Illiterates

President Joe Biden has accused oil companies of “war profiteering” and is threatening to impose a windfall tax if they fail to boost domestic production — and improve the Democrats’ fortunes in the 2022 midterms. It is ugly political theater. Demanding private entities act on behalf of the party or face punishment from the state, as the president might say, is semi-fascisty behavior. Other than appealing to the anger and frustrations of economic illiterates, windfall taxes (a tax on allegedly excessive, or unfairly obtained, profits) make zero sense. They neither bring down the price of energy nor increase supply. All windfall taxes do is disincentivize oil producers

Memories are shaky things. Maybe you remember a family trip to the beach or learning to swim as a child. But could you name the exact date, or even the year, these events happened? Without the help of a daily diary, it’s nothing more than guesswork. The same problem applies to cultural memories and history. And the further back in time you go, the more difficult it is to know when (or if) something actually happened. The Iron Age Levant, which occurred 1200-500 B.C., is one example of a historical period of particularly murky chronology. It’s a time when many of the cultural histories of the Near East, North Africa and

Donald Trump may have owned “You’re Fired!” but Elon Musk is teaching America what it means. The GOP should pay attention. Musk’s greatest undertaking as the new “Chief Twit” involves deploying new business models that enhance corporate value, but his most visible challenge is changing the culture of this large organization without interrupting its business. That’s a notoriously difficult task. It’s a task at which President Trump failed. Trump often complained about the politicization and corruption of federal agencies – comprised largely of his own executive branch employees – but he had zero perceptible impact on the culture of the federal bureaucracy. He was but the latest in a long line

Democracy is under threat — the wrong candidates could win more votes than their opponents in hotly contested free and fair elections. That’s the worry of progressives insisting “Democracy is on the ballot” in the midterms. This trope, repeated endlessly on the center-left, is offered as a reason voters of conscience should cast aside their other concerns and vote Democrat up and down the ballot. If this argument seems a touch self-serving — indeed functionally indistinguishable from run-of-the-mill partisan salesmanship — it’s because it is. As it happens, there is nothing in the actual behavior of Democrats to suggest that they take their own rhetoric seriously

Over half of the participants, 51%, do not or only somewhat believe Lake is “too extreme.” The poll surveyed 1,003 randomly selected Arizona voters between Oct. 26-30 with a +/- 3% margin of error.

Oprah Winfrey said on Thursday that she was endorsing Democratic Lt. Gov. John Fetterman over Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz in the Pennsylvania Senate race. While Winfrey is a Democrat herself, it's notable because Oz first came to prominence as a health expert on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" before he got his own talk show in 2009, which was produced her company Harpo. His show ended in January. "I’ll tell you all this, if I lived in Pennsylvania, I would have already cast my vote for John Fetterman for many reasons," Winfrey said during a virtual conversation with community leaders.
