The media – yes, even the mainly leftscream – are mystified by the empty chair at the head of the Dem Party. It’s been vacant since the Party’s thrashing in November. At this point, no one appears close to occupying it which has left Dems in a state of disarray.

There were Party leaders before the election of course. Biden, the weak, demented old fool, wasn’t one of them. The consensus is that Obama and Pelosi were the powerholders in the Party with Schumer as their errand-boy-in-chief.

But they have since receded into the background. They have no desire to sully their reputations further by association with the chaos and destructive antics currently in play. Besides, they don’t have the pull to rally Dems around the Party flag. Probably at this point no one does.

Even before the election, a current of discontent was pulling against the prevailing tide of Party rule. The current became a raging river of divisiveness after the blowout loss. At this juncture the river cannot be diverted. More and more Dems in Congress are exhibiting the bizarre behavior that once was the exclusive domain of the Odd Squad.

Perhaps cooler heads are waiting for this madness to exhaust itself when they can step in and get the unified ball rolling again.

The problem with waiting is that there may not be enough left to bring together. The positions being staked out now either triggered the November massacre or create more denial discord among the emotion-driven extremists.

The Dems just won’t give up howling about Kamala’s defeat in November. They were, and remain, so stunned by Trump’s victory – and their loss of power – that the excuses just can’t stop coming.

These excuses are a babbling stream of inconsistency and fantasy.

The first explanation was that candidate Biden should have withdrawn early enough for Dems to hold a primary to nominate his replacement. This seems to be a backhanded way of saying that Harris was the wrong stand-in. It has also been interpreted to mean that Harris simply needed a primary win to validate her candidacy.

Both interpretations come down to the same thing. However you get there, Harris was the wrong choice.

Undoubtedly Kamala was a poor performer, even a laughable one. But as undeniable was the fact that the state of the Country in 2024 foreshadowed bad tidings for the Party in power.

Boarding on the trivial, another excuse is that Biden himself could have won if he’d given an interview during the 2024 Super Bowl.

Nitpicking explanations are foolish and only keep Dem losses rolling in.

An argument trotted out just last week – apparently in earnest – was that Biden should have remained in the race. According to this theory, his debate performance was bad but not that bad. It didn’t really impact his poll numbers. And, of course, Biden’s mental capacity was just fine. The real problem was the Party’s over-the-top reaction to his debate loss.

What very few, if any, Dems admit is that Biden’s job performance was repugnant to most Americans. Harris’s affirmation that she wouldn’t have done anything differently killed whatever chances her Party had in November.

Death occurs for many reasons – age, infirmity, accident, etc. Death by dumb only happens to the very stupid.

Yesterday Trump was confirmed as the victor in last year’s Presidential election. As we know, he won in a landslide. He captured the popular vote, carried all seven swing states and slaughtered Harris in the electoral vote count.

The big reason for Donald’s runaway victory was the impacts of the Biden/Harris shockingly disastrous track record on every front. Sealing the deal was Harris’s last-minute candidacy. She was so bad that the only surprise was the number of votes she managed to get. Who are these 70+ million people who marked her name on their ballots?

But a check in the GOP win column isn’t the only outcome of the election. And it may not even be the most consequential. An aftereffect of their loss is the fact that Dems can’t figure out why Trump won. Or they refuse to see it. Either way, if they’re unable to learn from their mistakes, the mistakes will repeat.

This second result of the election might be the longest lasting one. As Biden exits the political stage, he may drag the Dems with him. A Party gone with the Windbag.  At least for a while.

This should bring glad tidings to all those in search of relief from condescending ignoramuses who personify cultural corruption.

Kamala Harris finally conceded defeat to Donald Trump in the 2024 Presidential election. She didn’t attribute a cause of her loss, just a determination to continue down the same ideological path in her political life.

The outcome was not merely a loss for Harris. It was a crushing defeat. Trump is now projected to win over 300 electoral votes and the popular vote as well.

The inevitable blame game began on election night when it became apparent that Harris would not be the next President. The first finger pointed at the VP choice. Walz brought nothing positive to the ticket, which may have been the point. With him, she certainly was not in danger of being the lesser light.

Most Dems believe Harris should have chosen Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro as her VP. He would have put the Keystone State in her win column. And, he may have delivered more battleground states than she won with Walz.

In any event, her problems were not merely her choice of running mate. They went much deeper. The state of the economy and illegal immigration, the hyper dangerous foreign conflicts, her insistence that she would have done nothing differently than Biden, her constant word salad vacuousness, etc.

Perhaps most telling of her unsuitability for the job was the fact that she didn’t replace Biden as President months ago. He’s been in a deteriorating mental state for years. She would have been justified in effecting his removal under the 25^th Amendment. In assuming the role of President, she could have demonstrated her leadership ability and begun fulfilling the promises of her campaign.

But she left Biden in the White House giving up her chance to shine in the job she sought. The obvious reason for her inaction is that she can’t do the job, a fact she wanted hidden in a hole deeper than Biden’s basement.

The Dem powerbrokers calculated that they could sell this unknown quantity in an 108-day whirlwind campaign of euphoria and Trump bashing. Their calculator needs recalibration.
