Let Them Eat Supreme Court Reform
It’s a major understatement to point out how the priorities of the Democratic Party are not really in line with the priorities of the American people. Democrats, for example, will take to the street and damn near riot over the idea that a women might carry a baby to term. Well, a biological woman, anyway. But normal people, even those who support abortion, are simply too busy or don’t care enough to march, chant and scream uncontrollably over it. It’s as though Democrats, on the issues and where they put their energy, are out of touch with the American people. But it only seems that way because, well, it’s true.
Honestly, when you think about the priorities of the Democratic Party heading into this election, what are they? Abortion, obviously, but what else? Continued genital mutilation and sterilization of children is another one, but not one they’ll actually campaign on. Open borders? It’s true, but they won’t admit it. Expanded welfare? Student loan balance transfers from people who took out those loans to people who didn’t? Again, it’s what they’re doing but they don’t really want to talk about it.
The curious thing about Democrats in the 2024 election is they have to campaign like they weren’t even in town for the last 4 years, let alone running the Executive Branch of government.
Just like the Obama administration, which spent all 8 years whining about who bad the economy they inherited was to explain why their economy was a flatlining dud, only to scream that they deserved credit for the Trump economy when it started rolling, the Biden/Harris team can’t shut up about who bad things were when they came into office.
Inflation, they say, is Trump’s fault. How, they don’t explain because the very concept is stupid, but they claim it anyway. Trump didn’t make them spend trillions of unnecessary dollars that didn’t exist before on their friends and political donors pet projects, they did that all on their own. It’s it odd how they want credit for the economy relative to 2020, when they’d pretty much shut the whole thing down, but none of the responsibility for anything else?
The economy was going to come back just like the water out of a hose comes back when you unkink it. That happening doesn’t mean you created wet, it just means things were allowed to get back to normal after abnormal interference by government.
If Democrats had real accomplishments they’d run on them. Instead, they’re running on having a black lady as their nominee who happens to also be Asian, but only when it suits her political needs, otherwise she pretty much ignores it.
You can call that whatever you like, and it is a lot of different things, but none of those things are accomplishments to normal people.
So, what did the powers that be in the Democratic Party come up with? Supreme Court “reform.”
Marie Antoinette is famously, and likely falsely, credited with saying, “Let them eat cake,” when told of the starving peasants in France who didn’t have bread to eat. The story illustrated just how out of touch she was with the reality of the average Frenchman – if they couldn’t afford bread, they sure as hell couldn’t afford cake.
The same out of touch mentality has taken over the Biden/Harris administration and what they’re making their “priority” through the election.
There are maybe a couple of hundred people who care about reforming the Supreme Court, and that’s about it. Everyone else recognizes this is just a temper tantrum for effect to placate the radical base conditioned to be outraged about everything.
Ask the average American if they care more about being able to fill their gas tank to get to work, feed their family or pay their rent/mortgage or see Supreme Court Justices term-limited, that vote would be more lopsided than the fake results progressive dictator Nicolás Maduro made up in his latest “election.”
Yet, this is the hill Democrats have chosen to fight on. Why? Because what else do they have?
When you have nothing else, you’ll try anything.
It’s not that they’re out of touch, the way Antoinette is in the apocryphal story, it’s that they’re out of ideas, or at least ideas they can sell that the masses will buy.
Democrats can’t campaign on what they’ve done or what they’re doing because what they’ve done has failed and what they’re doing is evil. All they have is random other things, various boxes to check on progressive wish lists that stand less of a chance of becoming reality than Kamala Harris does winning a contest based on merit. Which is precisely why Democrats will happily yell, “Let them eat Supreme Court reform,” rather than allowing this election to be about anything resembling merit, and why Republicans need to make merit a major part of their focus.
