It is difficult to overstate just how out of touch Democrats are with reality right now. When you’re as unpopular as they are it makes sense – you can’t admit reality, it’s too depressing, so you create a new one in your head. That’s a survival mechanism everyone has employed, to one degree or another, and at some point in their lives for short periods, and it’s perfectly normal. What isn’t normal is how Democrats have constructed this fantasy world and appear to live in it all the time.
I don’t know how you can watch Joe Biden stumble and bumble his way through the State of the Union Address and think he is well. Either he referred to the Ukrainian people as “Iranians” or “Urainians,” with neither option being good because what’s left of his brain didn’t notice whatever it was that came out of his mouth. A normal, healthy person will make mistakes, verbal gaffes, but our brains notice and we correct ourselves almost immediately. That does not happen with Joe Biden. He is so married to the teleprompter and going off script that he pays no attention to the words.
The media, naturally, ignored most of the gaffes because covering for their President is second nature to them. But it wasn’t just what he screwed up saying that was the problem, the parts of the speech he read accurately were just as disturbing.
“One way to fight inflation is to drive down wages and make people poorer,” Joe said. “I think I have a better idea to fight inflation: lower your costs, not your wages.” This is just one example of something that makes zero sense. None. It was not called out by anyone.
Over on MSNBC, one exchange between Stephanie Ruhle (who doesn’t get the credit she deserves as one of the dumbest people on cable news, probably because of misogyny) and former Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill, one of the richest Senators when she was in office, really exemplifies how out of touch the left is.
Ruhle started, “Claire, do you think when it comes to the voter, the president and this administration needs to do more talking about those economic wins? You know, because inflation is such a problem, often times it seems like Democrats are afraid to talk about how strong the economy is because they don’t want to be insensitive to people who are left out but the thing is if they do not sell their wins they can’t win in the midterms and then they can’t help anyone.”
This “you don’t know how good you’ve got it” argument is not the stuff successful campaigns are made of. More than that, however, is how Democrats insist their policies “leave no one behind,” except maybe the rich. Except what Democrats advance always benefits their rich donors. People for whom inflation means next to nothing. Ruhle isn’t impacted in any meaningful way by inflation, she’s rich, and McCaskill has a net worth north of $60 million.
McCaskill’s answer was every bit as bad as you’d expect. “This is not complicated,” she started. “The Democrats are very bad at being repetitive and disciplined on message. This president in one year created more jobs than any president in the history of the United States of America, say it over and over and over again. Real wages are up, saving is up yes there is inflation but overall if you don’t remind people how much better it is now than it was before then you leave the field open for the Republicans to distort and not tell the truth like frankly the governor of Iowa did tonight, she distorted the economic record of this president. And he brought down the deficit. So all of this is really important for them to just keep hammering over and over again. they get distracted by wanting to do so much for so many instead of keeping it simple and making sure voters understand who is really in their corner.”
Joe Biden didn’t create a single job, he just happened to be in office when the jobs Democrats shut down were allowed to return. New companies were not formed, nor have they expanded – people laid off were called back to work. No matter how many times that lie is repeated, it will never ring true to the public. We know.
Along those lines, the economy being allowed to reopen leads to increased economic activity, which leads to increased revenue to the government. That is not “cutting the deficit,” especially when your spending is loaded up in the future, an accounting gimmick if there ever was one.
These people live in a different world, a completely strange reality unfamiliar to anyone not currently on hallucinogenic drugs. Maybe we’re secretly being ruled by Hunter Biden?

No sane American wants to live in the dysfunctional, delusional, dystopian, halogenic induced stupor of a nightmare existence that progressive left urban democrats live in.
Straight up projection, deflection, and denial.
We just love paying so much more for gas, groceries, and rent/mortgage just because Brandon screws up every thing.

The truth is hard for the bicoastal urban secular progressive elites to accept. Thus their delusional existence.
Some refuse to inhabit reality.
Prime example, one of many!
Exactly right, both of you!
Nope. Never.
Why? Did you edit it so it makes sense now?
Are you going to provide anything to back up your statement or just spam it all over the place like you normally do?
Yes.
Of course.

... than QLunatics, Trumpist cultists and Putinites. It's called the real world. Something most QLunatics, Trumpist cultists and Putinites have little or no experience with.
Exactly. It's the right wing conservatives who live in some alternate bizarro universe where up is down and wrong is right, where a thrice married confirmed adulterer and narcissist who paid off porn stars to keep them quiet is their moral leader, where hypocrisy is their favorite cologne, where they welcome conservative white nationalists and white supremacists, defend confederate monuments and fly confederate flags, where they insist there is widespread election fraud any time they lose an election even though they've never been able to produce any evidence of fraud, where they welcome and encourage conspiracy theories like belief in a fantasy "deep state", lizard people, Democrats eating babies or running child sex trafficking's rings or belief in a 9,000 year old earth all contrary to actual evidence. The right wing alternate universe does not require any evidence and seems to be proud of the fact that they rely on their "faith" more than rational thinking.
Putinites? Really? The very bumbling dipshit you are supporting in the WH right now is the one that lifted BI-PARTISAN sanctions on Russia and hindered our domestic oil production so that we would be forced to rely on Russia. then you spew bullshit like the RIGHT supports Putin? [deleted]
Russian oil purchases are only 3% of our market and we are not dependent on Russian oil in any way.
There are most certainly right wingers who have supported Putin for years, and continue to, and who, likewise, have received Putin's support. If you don't know that you have some research to do.
So much for your bullshit comment.
ditto for yours!
And it should be 0%.
You love playing the partisan game don't you. You blather on about "right wingers supporting Putin" but here we are where it was the LEFT that lifted sanctions on Russia. You can't be that out of touch with what's going on not not see that. Then you want to claim MY comment is bullshit?
You made lots of people laugh at your ignorant comments and blatant hypocrisy.
Wait. I was supposed to give a rats ass what you think? Sorry, I must have missed that memo.
At any rate, I don't see you stepping up to disprove any of it.
I disproved all of it. Your comprehension issue is not my problem.
You see Putin's ally Trump as brilliant. Delusional.
"Some refuse to inhabit reality."
We see that with delusional 'articles' such as this.
Looks like you are trying to convince yourself!
Looks like you are trying to be witty, and failing!
I'll try to dumb it down enough for even you to recognize witticisms.
Not promising anything, because it damn sure ain't going to be easy.
Don't commit to ever exceeding expectations!
You would just be setting yourself up to fail...
So no matter what I post, you will still get it wrong?
Good to know, but hardly earth-shattering news.
Maybe next time don't show up at a battle of wits armed only with your intellectual spork.
My dad taught me to not have a battle of wits, or witts if you prefer, with those only half-equipped.
See? That is exactly what I was talking about.
Best go into the Witless Protection Program...
And that’s the way it is…Yesterday, today, and tomorrow!
Often, thanks.
Not my problem. Not my circus, not my monkey.
The secular progressives there need company?
The delusion is the environment that bi coastal secular progressive urban elitists live in.
What a fucking Bizarro World/alt-right reality you reside in.
As opposed to badlander fundie wackadoodle rural throwbacks subsisting in flyover country...
It's no delusion, it's beautiful coastlines, fresh ocean air with high concentrations of negative ions that neutralize free radicals, revitalize cell metabolism and enhance immune function. They are diverse coastal communities that cherish education, equality and freedom and refuse to be controlled, manipulated or silenced by the old useless conservative status quo of systemic prejudice, stubborn hate for those who don't share their brand of faith and an unwillingness to change and adapt to reality.
We love it living in exurban, small town, and rural America and that we are so far from the contaminantsthat are urban human debris. h/t Rush…
And fortunately there are rural and small town havens of that available far from spoiled urban squalor. From Trinidad Ca to Port Angeles Washington and most of Alaska.
No, that’s the whacko world delusional sec prog fake reality that you reside in.
Thanks for sharing your contempt for over 80% of the geographical make up of our nation and the population that are residents there.
No, that’s what we see when we go to the liberal echo chamber groups to read articles.
The approach here seems to be that people should ignore the worst inflation in 40 years. That strategy is going to be a loser.
That’s for sure. Inflation is a huge threat to our future well being.
The global inflation that everybody is experiencing is a direct result of covid-19.
The China virus? Most of the inflation is related to Biden. The nearly 2 trillion in stimulus the economy didn’t need and then his utterly jackass stupid energy policies that made the price of natural gas and oil go way up. Cutting production just as demand was greatly increasing and then buying from enemy nations at the price their cartel charges and renewing their monopoly rather than producing it here. The irony of making clean burning natural gas more expensive has been a revival of the coal industry. Congratulations!
