The left has no comprehension of how to accept responsibility when they are defeated by conservatives in any election. Instead of accepting blame they quickly shift it by calling voters all white supremacists and failing to be “woke” enough.
We are now in the 21st century and while yes there are pockets of racist people in the world there isn’t the amount that the media likes to say. Just cause one does NOT agree with identity politics or desire to have their children taught revisionist history does not make people racist.
Thankfully, veteran Democratic strategist James Carville realized that too and placed the blame where it belonged.
Carville went on to blame “stupid wokeness” for the resounding losses the Democratic Party sustained in Tuesday’s elections across the country.
Carville made the comments while being interviewed by Judy Woodruff on “PBS Newshour” Wednesday.
“What went wrong is just stupid wokeness. Alright, don’t just look at Virginia and New Jersey. Look at Long Island, look at Buffalo, look at Minneapolis, even look at Seattle, Washington. I mean, this ‘defund the police’ lunacy, this take Abraham Lincoln’s name off of schools. I mean that — people see that,” Carville said emphatically.
“It’s just really — has a suppressive effect all across the country on the Democrats. Some of these people need to go to a ‘woke’ detox center or something,” he continued. “They’re expressing a language that people just don’t use, and there’s backlash and a frustration at that.”
Here is more from The Blaze:
Carville went on to point out that Republican Glenn Youngkin, who won the gubernatorial election in Virginia, never aired political ads against President Joe Biden, instead he let the Democrats implode on their own.
“We got to change this and not be about changing dictionaries and change laws,” Carville added. “These faculty lounge people that sit around mulling about I don’t know what. They’re not working.”
Carville pointed out that the extremist demonstrations in Seattle, including the creation of an anti-police ‘autonomous zone,’ had led to the election of a Republican into the Office of the Seattle City Attorney.
“Autonomous zone? Who could even think of something that stupid?!” he asked.
Carville has consistently harangued the party about straying so far to the left that they lose their traditional voter base. His complaints mirrored those of Van Jones and David Axelrod on CNN who opined that Democrats had lost because they were “annoying” and out of touch.
“And I got news for you, you’re hurting the party, you’ve hurting the very people you’re trying to help!” Carville concluded.
Maybe the left will begin to realize that their woke policies are not what all of us want at all!
