Life in the bubble - Democrats

| No Comments

From the ever-wonderful London Daily Mail:

We need to be even FURTHER left: Progressives including Ilhan Omar double down on agenda that led party to disaster in Virginia and vow to fight GOP’s ‘race-baiting BS’ as desperate Dems start the blame game

    • Shell-shocked Democrats were reassessing what went wrong after losing the Virginia governor's race
    • Lawmakers pointed to the failure to pass Biden's domestic agenda and progressives issued stark messages
    • Ilhan Omar retweeted a comment by Twitter user Secular Talk that said: 'Can't wait for the left to be blamed for a not at all left democrat losing a D+10 state.' She added a face-smacking emoji
    • The far-left Battle Barn Collective called the Virginia result a 'shellacking' that should 'wake up' the Dems
    • Progressive said McAuliffe's campaign 'had no rebuttal to Republican race-baiting bull****'
    • Senator Tim Kaine (D-Ohio) said he hoped his colleagues would treat the dismal showing like the 'Ghost of Christmas Future'
    • Moderate Democrats have called for an end to the infighting that has blocked spending bill talks
    • Joe Manchin called the Virginia results 'unbelievable' and said it shows Dems need to focus more on issues
    • Youngkin beat Terry McAuliffe in Virginia, while New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy was clinging to narrow lead

Progressive Democrats led by Ilhan Omar suggested the party needs to go even further to the left and didn't do enough to combat the Republican's 'race-baiting bulls***' as warring factions played the blame game for Terry McAuliffe's crushing defeat in Virginia and a close race in New Jersey on Tuesday night.

Senator Tim Kaine (D-Ohio) said he hoped his colleagues would treat the dismal showing like the 'Ghost of Christmas Future' and moderates called for an end to in-fighting with Biden's agenda still stalled and his approval ratings plummeting.

Even the mainstream media was damning of the results and the fallout with CNN saying Biden returned from Europe to a 'political nightmare', The New York Times suggesting the president's falling approval rating 'heavily shaped' the dismal showing, and The Washington Post said it confirmed the collapse of the coalition that propelled the Democrats to victory over Donald Trump in 2020.

Heh...  Enjoy the bubble - you made it, you own it.  You are very much in the minority - get over it.
