If nothing else, I think it fair to say that the elite members of today’s Democrat Party can safely be described as being quite the storytellers. And most recently it was one of those elite members who appeared quite desperate in his attempt to spin yet another yearn, one spun in an effort to convince the party faithful that the Democrat cave regarding the most recent government shutdown was nothing more than an attempt on the part of these saintly Democrats to draw attention to those issues deemed by them to be important and once that had been accomplished, once their point had been made, they were then free to bring the government back to life.
Such is
the story that we’re now expected to believe. And it was the story that we
again heard this past Friday when, during an interview with CBS News, none
other than James Clyburn, a Democrat, actually made the claim that Democrats
didn’t cave on the government shutdown, and “Democrats put before the American
people exactly what the issues are, and when they saw those issues explained to
them, they reacted” in the elections in both New Jersey and Virginia. The fact
that Democrats continue to defend their shutdown pretty much proves they lost
ground because of it. This guy Clyburn is a disgrace to both his constituents
and to the country.
Host and
CBS News Chief Washington Correspondent Major Garrett asked, “Do you think,
come January 2026, we’re going to have another government shutdown?” And it was
in answering that Clyburn said, “I don’t think so. The powers that be see that
you have to be very careful how you flex those powers. And people write that
the Democrats caved. That’s not what Democrats did. Democrats put before the
American people exactly what the issues are, and when they saw those issues
explained to them, they reacted in Virginia and New Jersey, not in Mississippi
and Georgia, in such a way that I’m sure they’ll stay away from forcing another
shutdown."
These
guys really do need to get their lies straight, Jeffries says the Democrats
didn’t shut down the government and Clyburn says they did to prove a false
narrative. And regarding Clyburn, he’s essentially admitting to electioneering
by holding the country hostage for votes! And I gotta tell ya, if it took a government
shutdown in order for Democrats to win in deep blue cities and states that should
tell you just how bad off they really are. And it shows you the lengths to
which these Democrats will go to ‘win’ elections. Apparently, they’re willing destroy
the economy and the nation to get what they want! When it comes to Democrats, the
end always justifies the means!
But look,
all we really had take place on this last Election Day was leftwing Democrats winning
in areas that were deep blue cities and states. But strangely enough it was almost
one million more people showed up to vote in the New Jersey governor’s race
than did in past elections. And are we really expected to believe this? I find
this hard to believe that Sherrill got 600,000 more people to come out and vote
for her and higher energy prices and taxes. If that’s true, it doesn’t say much
for the voters in New Jersey who would seem to have lost their minds. And
Clyburn bragging about the win could make you wonder if it was all rigged to
create a false narrative?
So, what
Clyburn seems to be saying is that millions of Americans had to suffer
needlessly so the Democrats could get a couple of much needed election wins. Yup,
you heard it here straight from the horse’s mouth. Just think what they’ll do
when it comes to trying to win next year’s midterm elections? They don’t care
about the American people, only about winning elections and gaining more power.
But let’s face it, regarding the election in Virginia, the state has had 37 Democrat
governors and nine Republicans since 1837. That’s 188 years of Democrat governors.
So, anyone who thinks 2025 was some kind of Democrat mandate victory is a
bigger fool than Clyburn.
So, in
short there were no real surprises in any of these election victories. All we
had were horrible Democrats candidates who replaced horrible Democrat office
holders. And yet Democrats felt it necessary to shut down the government to win
elections? They chose to use the American people as fricking pawns in some
political game because they lost the last election. And as I recall, those
eight Democrats who finally came to their senses, and voted to end the shutdown,
were pilloried and practically shunned by nearly all of their colleagues and
everyone else on the left. And now Jimmy is singing quite the different tune
when he tries to turn this into a win.
Connecting the recent shutdown
with a few blue zone gimme wins that would have happened regardless is far from
being an example of shrewd political analysis. I’m quite sure that all the
families who were made to suffered through the shutdown, with some wondering
when their next check might appear, and all those millions of travelers who had
their flights cancelled or delayed were happy to learn that that the sole
purpose for the Democrats’ shutting down the government was to help them win
elections in two of our bluest of blue states. So, Clyburn justifies inflicting
pain on the American people by claiming Democrats were just out to get their
attention.
