During a recent event, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries spoke of people who voted for Trump and said “our goal is to break them.”
If you read the Gateway Pundit, you know that among our many criticisms of the Democrats is the fact that they are not offering the country any new ideas. They bring absolutely nothing to the table for the people of America, other than outrage, protests, and Trump hatred.
Just look at what Jeffries is saying here. He is not saying “here is how we will improve people’s lives.” No, he is talking about ‘breaking’ his fellow citizens for not voting the way he wants them to.
So inspiring. Such an uplifting message.

HAKEEM JEFFRIES: I guess part of how we as House Democrats view this moment: either MAGA extremists are going to break the country, or we’re going to break them. And our goal is to break them.
We will defeat them.
We have to beat them electorally, and then we have to break their spirit because of the extremism that’s being unleashed on the American people that’s completely and totally unacceptable.
And that’s the approach that we’ve taken with respect to legislating on these discharge petitions.
And so while we have a responsibility to drive down the high cost of living and focus on the affordability agenda, we also believe that there’s an accountability agenda that the American people will expect, rightfully, for a separate and coequal branch of government to pursue, and led by Robert Garcia, who’ll do a great job.

Jeffries was speaking at the Center For American Progress “IDEAS” summit. It’s ironic that the word ‘IDEAS’ is printed on the wall behind him. He doesn’t have any ideas. No one in his party does.
If they retake power after the 2026 midterms, we are going to see a replay of what happened after they retook power in Trump’s first term.
The Democrats have nothing to offer.
