Reasonable Democrats Reject “Toxic” Progressive Brand Biden-Harris Put “in the Toilet”

I am not a Democrat [any longer]. [Not in] the form of what the Democratic Party [under the “progressives”] has turned itself into, the national brand. Absolutely not. … The [Democrat] brand [has] got so bad … [that] it’s just toxic. … [T]he Democratic Party, the Washington Democrats, have tried to mainstream the extreme.

Longtime Democrat (now Independent) Senator (WV) Joe Manchin, 12/22/24

They gotta be nuts!…  [T]hey’ve got to be completely insane!

Manchin’s response to Democrat Rep. Greg Casar’s (TX) remark that if the Democrats were more like Chairwoman Jayapal and less like Manchin, Democrats would have won this election, 12/22/24

A 2023 Morning Consult poll found by a 9-point margin, voters also see the Democratic Party as more ideologically extreme than the GOP.

Reason Magazine, 11/20/24

The Democratic brand is in the toilet.  Many of the Democrats who succeeded this cycle … are people who ran against the Democratic Party brand.  … When the best way to win as a candidate is to run against your own party, [it is] that bad.

Democrat Communications Strategist Liz Smith,  12/23/24

Well, toilets have clear utility, so perhaps the comparison is even ‘generous.’

Progressive Democrat Campaign Consultant Anat Shenker-Osorio response to Liz Smith’s evaluation, 12/23/24

I think people [voters will] decide [which candidate] is going to protect and project … [their] version of the American way of life and that’s what happened [in the election of Trump]. … I’m not rooting against [Trump]. 

Democrat Senator from Pennsylvania John Fetterman, 12/22/24

The president’s pardon [of his son Hunter] has been condemned by many Democrats, and it threatens to ruin what’s left of Biden’s presidential legacy. A handful of defenders, however, are making excuses for Biden’s pardon … [for fear that] Trump [might take] action against Hunter Biden [when he takes office].

Washington Examiner, 12/9/24

I voted Democrat [in the last election]. And I … don’t like the fact that I did. I don’t like what I’m seeing [from Biden and the Democrats]. … I don’t wanna hear [them chanting that] nobody’s above the law. [Because] then you [Joe Biden] go out and you pardon your son and try to blame everybody else for it. … I don’t wanna hear about ’defund the police.’ I don’t wanna hear [that] there should be open borders.  I don’t wanna hear [any of] this stuff and I don’t think most of the American people want to hear [it either].  … The American people aren’t falling for it any longer.

Former Democrat ESPN Sports expert and commentator, Stephen A. Smith, 12/23/24

Stephen A. Smith Stuns with Shocking Reversal on Trump: Smith, who had been notably anti-Donald Trump during this year’s election season, says he’s changed his mind … [Smith now says] he has regrets about voting for VP Kamala Harris and that he would entertain the possibility of supporting Trump in the future.

The Daily Beast, 12/24/24

One of the storylines the Democrat and their “News”-media Colluders (hereafter the DNC) put together before the election to cover up their “toxic” brand and retain their grip on money and the power to push innocent people around was that it was Donald Trump that represents the toxic extremist brand.  However, after the American people, defying the constant series of smears and hoaxes from the DNC and their “news” media poodles, voted Trump and the Republicans into office in historic numbers, an increasing number of Democrats or former Democrats have actually decided to chart a new course and start telling the simple truth.  And that truth is that it is the Democrats and their media poodles have been pushing policies and behaviour so “toxic” that they have deposited the entire Democrat brand into the “toilet”.  Congratulations DNC!  Employing the time-worn strategy of accusing one’s opponent of precisely what one is oneself doing, the Democrats had to brand Trump as the extremist in order to distract from their own “toxic” extremism. 

Despite the fact that what’s left of the “news” media has been covering for them, it turns out that the peasants, who, not living in mostly white determinately Venezuelan-free Martha’s Vinyard with the Messiah or in mansions in Montecito, Chicago, Hawaii, Colorado and a Florida Island with Oprah, directly felt the pain caused by the Democrat-Biden-Harris incompetence and malevolence, did not buy the latest Democrat-media con job.  Shocker:  The DNC and the media’s repeated statement that the peasants were as joyful as they, the arrogant moneyed Democrat elites are, did not impress the peasants who have been suffering from the “toxic” Democrat policies for the past 4 years.  Imagine that!  The peasants, filtering out the corrupt “news” media, can think for themselves!  

The final straw for many, like black ESPN expert Stephen A. Smith, that exploded “the Biden delusion” came when, after lying for years that he would not pardon his corrupt son, Biden, soon after the election was over, pardoned his son – thereby making the Biden corruption impossible to deny.  Such as the Democrat’s arrogance that they even rub it in your face and then blame it on you.   It turns out that it’s Trump’s fault that Biden broke his oath and pardoned Hunter.  They are Democrats after all.  To be is to be a victim.

Nor has Joe Biden, furious after being forced out of the campaign after his cognitive decline was exposed, finished the job of throwing the Democrat brand into the toilet.  Biden has just misused his presidential pardon powers to commute the sentences of 1,500 felons and pardon 37 out of 40 federal death penalty sentences, including nine people convicted of murdering fellow prisoners, four for murders committed during bank robberies, one who killed a prison guard and one serial killer who stabbed to death two little girls aged 8 and 9.

Charlie Kirk has said he is worried that Biden will pardon all the illegal aliens in the country (most let in by Biden’s irresponsible border policies) in order to circumvent the immigration laws passed by congress in order, eventually, to naturalize millions of new Democrat voters.   The Nation has urged Biden to do just that.  However, if the president’s pardon power can be used in such blanket pardons, then there is no rule on law in the country anymore, not that the old fool, eager to do as much damage to the country as possible, cares.

Even if, however Biden does blanket pardon all the illegals for illegally entering the country, he cannot pardon them for being in the country illegally under Trump’s administration.  Joe Biden cannot by a stroke of the pen legitimate the illegal aliens he invited into the country.  Hopefully, therefore, the courts, perhaps SCOTUS, would rule that Biden’s blanket pardon cannot prevent those illegals from being deported. 

In all of these absurd actions Biden is recognized by increasing numbers of Democrats to be doing enormous damage to the Democrat Party brand.  Perhaps that is the karma Democrats deserve for installing Biden, already cognitively challenged, in 2020, into the White House.   It is just unfortunate that the entire country must pay such an enormous price, thrown into the toilet, for the Democrat Party’s toxic determination to win by any means, fair or foul, necessary.

The Democrats, filled with reason-destroying venom, did this to themselves.
