Democrats Are Left Holding the Bag Again

You cannot beat Donald Trump. It should become clear to the elites, the Democrats, and the media that the man plays the long game, and his enemies very much don’t, which is why they come off as abject morons who also can’t keep up with the news. The entire month of April was dominated by the tariff policy and its impact on the stock market. We were supposed to have the worst April since 1932. The reality: all Liberation Day losses have been recovered, and then some, and the jobs report blew expectations out of the water. Unemployment remains at 4.2 percent. And Democrats are left holding the bag again.

They’re just too stupid. Everything they’ve done has been bereft of intelligence and political strategy. They tried to make Salvadoran illegal alien Kilmar Abrego Garcia some patron saint of due process, but only after their initial narrative—that he’s not an MS-13 member—blew up in their face. There’s now enough evidence from the Justice Department that could scale Everest, showing Garcia is a gangbanger. There’s more evidence that he beats his wife. Garcia was deported to El Salvador, where Democrats flocked to portray him as some innocent "Maryland man" taken in the middle of the night.

Like the Persian fleet at the Battle of Salamis, the Trump administration let the Democrats get so far down the straits on this one that they had no room to maneuver and got smashed by the oncoming triremes bearing MAGA flags. It was genius: the president got Democrats to defend an MS-13, wife-beating gangbanger. Multiple protection orders were filed against Garcia by his wife—this story will evaporate from the media cycle soon. It's why House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, aka Temu Obama, is reportedly not supporting any more Democrat trips to El Salvador.

Regarding the economy, the Dow Jones is still rolling, soaring above 41,000. What happened to Great Depression 2.0? With metronomic regularity, the Democrats, the media, and the elites fail to ensnare Trump. They can’t beat him. They won’t beat him. They tried scaring his base by inducing an artificial sell-off that made the already projected market readjustment seem more ominous than it was. The liberals and anti-Trump GOP clowns cheered over the "crashing" economy. They’re very silent right now. The elites bet against the American worker and, as of now, have lost that battle. Don’t be a "Panican." Don’t be a moron. That’s for liberals and Bulwark Republicans.

Oh, and this temporary period of manufactured market volatility didn’t shake Trump’s base at all.

Go home and stay home, guys. You’ve lost. Democrats have no message, no agenda, and no leader. They're bumbling around, spewing nonsense into the air. They're deploying essentially the strategy of throwing everything against the wall and seeing what sticks. They don't have the brain trust to pull this off. Take the latest impeachment push by Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI), who lied to his co-sponsors, saying it was signed off by party leadership. It wasn't, sparking another internal fiasco.

Who's leading this motley crew? Who's in charge? Democrats think they're entitled to win the 2026 midterms. They won't with this band of drooling vegetables at the helm.
