"Offending most of the country, turns out, is not as popular as my party thought it was going to be."Van Jones warns Democratic Party is 'screwed,' adding they 'don't know what to do' writes Lindsay Kornick on Fox News.
Former Obama advisor Van Jones declared that the Democratic Party was "screwed" and trapped between two deeply unpopular factions.
The CNN commentator couldn’t help but laugh at the "nightmare" Democrats were in when asked about the ongoing friction between party members.
"Look, man, we’re screwed," Jones said on "CNN Newsroom" Sunday. "I mean, Democrats don’t know what to do. This is a nightmare. You know, somebody like Donald Trump, we thought we’d at least have Hakeem Jeffries in the Speaker’s chair to hold him back if we didn‘t have Kamala in there to do the right thing."
Jones commented on how the party continues to be caught between the establishment members and the more progressive members with no clear path moving forward.
"Listen, the Democratic Party is going through a massive set of internal crises. You have a party that got trapped two ways," he said. "One, defending a broken status quo that nobody likes because they thought that Donald Trump was going to make it worse. But when you’re defending the status quo, you’re going to lose."
"And then offending most people in the country, calling everybody sexist and racist and transphobic and every other name, and then saying, ‘please follow us.’ That’s not a good strategy, folks [Laughter]. Defending a broken status quo and offending most of the country, turns out, is not as popular as my party thought it was going to be. And so it’s going to take a while for people to get it figured out," Jones added.
But have no fear, leftists. As Stephen Kruiser writes, the Dems Are Hoping to F-Bomb Their Way Into America's Hearts:
This is from something that Rick wrote over the weekend [Dems Tossing 'F Bombs' Around, Looking to Create a 'Shortcut to Authenticity' by Rick Moran]:
For Democrats, the experience is particularly unnerving. It has unmoored many of them from civilized society and sent them on a search for "authenticity." As Politico reports, "one unifying thread as they try to invigorate their connection to the American voter has been a reach for profanity."
… And who needs fresh policy ideas when you can bond with the voters by simply wagging a salty tongue?
I'll admit to being a little torn here. Lately, I think it would be nice to go for a day or two without writing another "Yeesh, look what the Democrats are up to now" column. Then again, that's a rich vein of material to keep mining. There's also the fact that this particular iteration of the Democratic Party is so filled with lunatics that there is some variety to the expressions of madness.
To the surprise of no one, Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas shows up in this story. She is rapidly establishing herself as the Queen of the Democratic toilet. If the Dems ever do eventually come up with any coherent plans for emerging from the political exile that they are in at the moment, there's a good chance that Crockett's perpetually open foul mouth will interfere with them. I've got a feeling about this one. In fact, I told Paula last week that we might want to get more pictures of Crockett for our photo library because I'm sure we're going to be writing about her a lot in the coming months.
None of it will be flattering, by the way.
The fact that the Dems think that coarse language will "invigorate their connection to the American voter" shows that they've lost all ability to read the room. If American voters are swearing up a storm, it's likely in response to the mess that Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and the rest of the Democrats spent the last four years making. I know I threw more than a few f-bombs their way during that time.
