In 2022, the Democrats’ Biggest Enemy is Voter Revulsion

Democrats haven’t grasped this yet, but it’s too late for them.  The die is cast.  An electoral bloodbath awaits next year, akin to or surpassing what happened to their party in 2010.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s and the Squad’s anti-American leftist politics drive their party, and that’s beginning to register at a gut level with voters.  What voters – critically, that big, pivotal segment known as independents – now feel is revulsion for Democrats in not just one way but many.  The intensity of that revulsion is bound to grow in the coming months.

How do we know that?  In the first 10 months of the Biden presidency, we went from a functioning country recovering from needless Covid lockdowns to a nation suddenly skidding downhill.  Do we believe that we haven’t seen the worst of Biden’s inept governance and congressional Democrat incompetence, extremism, and corruption?  2021 will only prove a prelude.

Democrats are ensnared in hubris and have boxed themselves into corners.  Ideological corners.  Policy corners.  Governance corners.  Interest group corners.  Cultural corners.  Integrity and corruption corners.  An unabated lust for power dominates their appetites.

Starting on January 20 – shortly after Biden was sworn in and began robotically signing executive orders – voters witnessed failure after failure, with energy costs and inflation climbing; supply chains bogging down; an evaporating southern border and floods of illegals; needless defeat and retreat in Afghanistan; a draconian vax mandate; urban homicides and crime exploding; cancel culture employed as a threat and cudgel; boondoggle spending and proposals by a Democrat Congress; parents branded “domestic terrorists” by the U.S. attorney general; and, as Thomas Lifson pointed out, the spreading realization that Democrats hid Biden in his Delaware basement in 2020 because he really is decrepit and daft.
