House Speaker Nancy Pelosi promised her caucus that the democrats were going to expand their majority by flipping tons of Republican seats in the 2020 election. They flipped exactly zero red seats and are losing blue seats at an alarming rate. In conference call, fellow House democrats ripped Pelosi a new one for blowing the election so badly. It’s been eons since Nancy used any of the old ones and now she’s got a new one she doesn’t know what to do with.
Isn’t it funny how democrats are always preaching unity and acceptance but the second there’s slight problem they turn on each other like starving coyotes? Here’s The Hill with a report on today’s House democrat zoom conference call:
Moderate House Democrats lashed out at their liberal colleagues Thursday, using a marathon caucus-wide conference call to bash progressives for advancing an agenda that, the centrists said, cost the party a number of seats in Tuesday’s elections.
An impassioned Rep. Abigail Spanberger, who squeaked to victory in central Virginia, took liberals to task for promoting the policy of redirecting funds away from police departments, an idea that took off following the death of George Floyd in May — and that Republicans used on the campaign trail to hammer Democrats with charges of nurturing crime.
Rep. Marc Veasey (D-Texas) delivered a similar condemnation, lamenting that the far left’s approach to several issues — including moving funds away from the police and banning fracking — had given ammunition to GOP attack ads. Veasey said he had watched GOP “commercial after commercial” using video footage of Democrats uttering the words, “defund the police,” to great effect.
And here’s WaPo’s Erica Warner with some specific complaints from Rep. Abigail Spanberger:
Spanberger on the Dem caucus call: We lost races we shouldn’t have lost.
Defund police almost cost me my race bc of an attack ad.
Don’t say socialism ever again.
Need to get back to basics.

If we run this race again we will get fucking torn apart again in 2022, Spanberger says

It’s so weird how most Americans reject the far-left garbage that the democratic party now represents, isn’t it? Actually, what’s really weird is, so many people voted for Joe Biden who is a proud democrat and represents these things as well. So weird in fact that it seems a little fishy the presidential race is so close.
In any case, Pelosi of course disagreed with with her fellow democrats that she f*cked up and insisted (in the bitchiest way possible) that she’s a hero:
Pelosi comes back on and says she disagrees, they won the House and presidency

Spanberger called the Democrats’ campaign strategy “a failure.”
“I do disagree, Abigail, that it was a failure,” said Pelosi. “We held the House. Joe Biden is on a clear path to be the next President of the United States.”
The only clear path Joe Biden is on is to a convalescence home or possibly the morgue. As for democrats holding the House, that may be in question as well.
Yesterday Def-Con News reported that the democrats could possibly be down to a one seat majority when all the votes are counted. Well, about that…
416 House races appear decided
Democrats 212
Republicans 204 (+10)19 Seats remain, GOP lead in 10
To win 218 (and House majority), GOP would need to win all the districts they are leading in, plus:
CA-25
GA-07
PA-17

If the Republicans take over control of the House I will laugh so hard I’ll need a change of underwear. This would be more stunning, and obviously funnier, than Donald Trump’s upset victory of Hillary Clinton in 2016.
This does however bring up a good point: if all of these Americans voted out democrat incumbents, why is the presidential election so close? Don’t people usually vote a straight party ballot? Who are these people who voted for Republican representation but a senile socialist democrat for president? The reason why they voted against the democrat Reps applies to Biden as well.
