When it comes to politics and the media, we live in very stupid times and this story is proof.
Now that Democrats have utterly failed to redistrict the state of Virginia, the liberal media outlet Politico is reporting that the Dems are pivoting to a ‘new’ strategy of demonizing Trump and blaming him for everything.
This is new? Really? That’s news to us. It sounds like the oldest Democrat strategy in the book. Haven’t they been doing this since at least 2015?
From Politico:
As Republicans carve up Black districts, Democrats pivot to a new midterm message
Democrats are changing their redistricting strategy — again.
Just two weeks after House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries promised to invoke “maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time,” his side has been forced to shift drastically into a defensive posture thanks to a pair of court rulings that moved the House map toward the GOP.
Now, with little to no chances left to redistrict ahead of November to counter GOP gains of 10 favorable House seats or more, Democrats are stuck doing something they know all too well: blaming President Donald Trump, and hoping it will spur voters to turn out for them in the midterms.
In statements and interviews since Virginia’s Supreme Court struck down state Democrats’ new congressional map and the high court narrowed the Voting Rights Act, the party is arguing that Republicans’ aggressive moves to dismantle Black- and Hispanic-majority districts in the South will outrage voters of color and spur them to the polls in record numbers.
“Given the highly unfavorable political environment confronting House Republicans, the extremists will not meaningfully benefit from their scandalous gerrymandering scheme,” Jeffries said in a Monday “Dear Colleague” letter. “Quite the opposite. Democratic enthusiasm and resolve have grown more intense.”
This story highlights one the biggest challenges that Democrats are having right now. They are not offering anything new to the American people.
Since the 2024 election, all they have done is stomp their feet and obstruct. There is no new plan, new ideas, or self reflection. They have not paused for a single minute to ask themselves why they lost so badly in 2024. It’s as if they don’t even want to know.
They’re like spoiled children who just want what they want and want it right now.
They haven’t earned the right to be in power again. They haven’t even tried.
