Ignoring The Majority Of Americans

Posted on by

Below is a map showing the results of the 2024 presidential election:

As you can see, the majority of states voted for President Trump. Logically, the Congressmen who represent these states should vote in ways that reflect the fact that the voters in their state supported President Trump (and we can assume, support his policies). If these Congressmen represent their districts, shouldn’t they then support President Trump’s policies? Well, not so fast. Yes, I know that some of the Congressmen from these states are Democrats, but shouldn’t their votes in Congress represent their voters? That is why the direct election of Senators passed in 1913 was such a bad idea.

On November 12th, Breitbart reported:

House Democrats are trying to assemble a battle plan to prevent President-elect Donald Trump from implementing his America First agenda, a report Monday claimed.

The Democrats’ initiative to immediately “resist” Trump might compound their election losses. Democrats are not aligned on why they lost the election, and they do not seem to have a national leading voice to coalesce behind.

Democrats, however, will not give up. House Democrats will meet this week to brainstorm how to slow down the incoming Trump administration while keeping “some control in Washington,” Axios reported Monday:

The talks mainly involve members of the Progressive, Black, Hispanic, Asian Pacific American and Equality caucuses, according to multiple lawmakers engaged in the discussions.

Ramirez said the conversations center on figuring out “what are the things [where] we have any powers to protect the communities that we know will be most harmed as a result of a Donald Trump election.”

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) confirmed to Axios “there are conversations that are taking place where people are tying to figure out if there are some steps that can be taken that can reduce the damage.”

What damage? How about reducing the damage the Biden administration policies have caused to middle America in the past four years? After a while, you begin to wonder who the Democrats work for.

The Democrat establishment has created three explanations for the loss of the Presidential election:  1. Hispanic and black voters are misogynists. 2. The loss had nothing to do with Trump and more to do with Democrats being victims of inflation. and 3. Democrats lost because President Joe Biden did not step aside soon enough to allow for an open primary.

Actually, they lost because their policies lost. Americans are getting tired of inflation, legal discrimination against average Americans, men in women’s sports, and being lied to by the media. If those things change, maybe the Democrats will start winning majorities again.

 

How Is Bidenomics Working For You?

On Monday, Breitbart posted an article about the ‘success’ of Bidenomics. The White House is attempting to convince Americans that Bidenomics has had a positive impact on the American economy. I don’t think they are succeeding.

The article reports:

A super-majority of voters have negative views of the U.S. economy and disapprove of President Biden’s handling of the issue, according to a Wall Street Journal poll that the paper describes as “a stark warning to the 80-year-old incumbent ahead of the 2024 contest.”

Sixty-three percent of American registered voters say the economy’s strength is “not so good” or “poor.” Just 32 percent say the economy is “good” and only five percent say the economy is “excellent.”

…When asked how the economy has fared over the past two years, 58 percent say the economy has gotten worse. Just 28 percent say the economy has gotten better. Twelve percent say the economy is about the same as it was two years ago.

Although the rate of inflation has declined this year, Americans are unhappy with rising prices. Seventy-four percent say inflation has moved in the wrong direction, with just 20 percent saying it has moved in the right direction.

…The economy is weighing heavily on the minds of many Americans. Thirty-eight percent of Americans say the economy is the most important issue in the 2024 Presidential election, up from 35 percent in April. Another 10 percent said inflation is the most important issue, up from seven percent in April. After the economy, the top issue is “immigration, at 23 percent. No other issue scores in the double-digits.

These negative views of the economy are likely weighing down Biden’s overall popularity. Just 39 percent say they have a favorable view of Biden, versus 58 percent who say they have an unfavorable view. Forty-nine percent say they have a very unfavorable view.

Unfortunately, because of media bias, former President Trump has never been given credit for the economy he created during the first two years of his administration (and was beginning to rebuild after Covid). The logical solution to the pending economic disaster under President Biden is to re-elect President Trump. However, the media and the uni-party in Washington are willing to do anything to prevent that from happening.
