The media is starting to get a bit bolder with their prediction from Republicans in favor of Democrats. ABC correspondent Jonathan Karl acknowledged that a winning Trump candidate is a losing GOP.
Republicans have many MAGA wins.
“Donald Trump is on a roll,” Jonathan Karl said. “Speaking of rolls. He is dominating these parties. You have candidates winning in state after state who would have had no chance without a Donald Trump endorsement and then winning the Republican primaries. But here’s the thing. The more Trump wins, the more Republicans are poised to lose.”
It is about time that some in the media catch up with the reality that Democrats are no longer in dire straits electorally. Ironically, everything that is wrong with the economy and the state of the country, in general, is a direct result of Republican and Neo-Liberal policies since the inception of supply-side economics that neither Clinton nor Obama ever mitigated. President Biden, the least progressive of the three, is pushing policies that, while not nearly progressive enough, are taking us further than I could have expected under a president like Biden.
There is much to hammer in the degeneracy of the Republican politicians.
- Republicans removed poor/middle-class subsidies that would have given poor/middle-class Americans $35-insulin. Now Americans will continue paying thousands for insulin per year. They love tax cuts for the rich and implicit tax hikes for everyone else.
- Republicans voted against the bill that would bring off-shore manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. A few defied their leadership, but the GOP voted against it en masse.
- Republicans throughout the Red States are removing women’s rights to their bodies.
- Republicans intend to give state legislatures the power to overturn the vote of the American people.
The above are just a few issues that dozens of Democrats and Progressives can run on with ads, mailers, and in-the-flesh meetings. While the media and many would have you believe that the wind is the face of Democrats, let’s recall that the polling in Kansas gave the impression that the draconian constitution change was a close call. It was not.
Progressives and Democrats, the job is to make sure people vote as they did in Kansas. Mark my words, if Democrats and Progressives talk to the people in a grassroots manner, be prepared for gains in both the House and the Senate. Peer pressure makes people looking out for themselves at the ballot box poll much more Republican than they are.
