OPINION:
For two weeks now I’ve been having flashbacks of newsreels from the late ‘60s, because ever since President Trump took office, all the Democrats have been doing is protesting.
Sens. Maxine Waters, Chuck Schumer and and Chris Van Hollen are all screaming at each other, their constituents and the media’s cameras like it’s still 1968. They lost this past election and let Uncle Joe go home with millions of U.S. taxpayer funds and didn’t raise a whimper. The problem here is them, not the fact that the U.S. citizenry voted them out of power and turned the reigns over to President Trump and the Republicans.
The Democrats are not just sore losers. They took power in 2020 and didn’t fix our problems; instead, they caused rampant inflation. So they lost in 2024. In just a few weeks, Trump and the Republicans have done more than “Sleepy Joe” and the Democrats did in four years.
The Democrats need to get together, draw up a new playbook and convince the U.S. that they have learned a hard lesson. It’s time to start showing they are professional politicians, not professional protestors.
