I don’t want to tell you that Democrats are panicking, but they have adopted a more “hair on fire” tone in their fundraising as we enter the actual calendar year of the election. While I’m not saying they’re soiling themselves, at least not yet (not counting Jerry Nadler), I’d say they’re waking up after a night of drinking and Taco Bell hoping it’s just gas they aren’t going to be able to hold in while still lying in bed. In other words, they’re hyperventilating over what’s coming, or at least they’re praying their donors will.
Nothing opens up a wallet like fear. There’s a reason it is the tool most often used by politicians – “The other people are coming to get you, but I will stop them!” – and that’s because it works. If the other guy is Hitler reincarnated, or Hitler 2.0, or even Hitler Jr., it doesn’t really matter, the “Hitler” bit is the operative part. And no one calls anyone else Hitler in a calm, rational way (expect me, because Democrats are progressives and Nazis were progressives, therefore, Democrats are Hitler. I’ve laid out a much more rational and factual case here, if you don’t believe me), the do it because they’re worried they’re losing their base. If you feel your base slipping away, scare the hell out of them and they will, if they still believe you, snap back into line.
That’s the Biden campaign to this point. Grandpa Rapes Junior Senate Staffers is offering nothing positive for the future, just that Trump, and more broadly every Republican, is Hitler. Hell, if you’ve got Hitler on one side of the ballot, whatever is on the other side is better, right? Even if it’s a corrupt, senile pile of human garbage who pretends to be a devout Catholic while wanting to pay for abortions with taxpayer dollars, who showered with his daughter waaaaay past the age it could ever be considered appropriate to the point that it messed her up (can only imagine how), who really only cared about his eldest son, his “junior,” in whom he vested all his hope for a family legacy and his love, to the exclusion of the other kids, driving them to drugs, alcohol, prostitution and self-destruction, until that son died, then doubled the pressure on the second son to rake in the cash while he still had something to sell, ruining that child’s family and life. Even that guy is better than Hitler, right?
Actually, it sounds like that guy might be the Hitler. Or even worse.
There’s a point at which panic makes you stupid, and Democrats are hoping to get their supporters past that point as quickly as possible and keep them there as long as they can. Someone in a panic is easy to manipulate, easy to convince you’ll look out for them against whatever monster you made up to protect them from. Think of a small child – tell them a monster lives in their closet and the won’t sleep at night, unless you promise them that you, and only you, can and will protect them from it. Then they become dependent on your for the sense of security needed to sleep at night.
That’s Democrat politicians and their donor base.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has employed this tactic for years (what else are they going to sell people on, Nancy Pelosi’s leadership?). Now they’re past the point of even trying to make a rational case, and just tossing word salads.
Under the name “5TH EMAIL FOR DEREK,” the DCCC wrote, “Derek, it’s time to be brutally honest: We told you Republicans were FIRED up like never before -- they broke fundraising records all throughout 2023. We told you that deep-pocket donors FLOODED the GOP’s war chest with over $75.1 MILLION to defeat us. We told you that we needed EVERY grassroots supporter on board to compete with far-right mega-donors and win back the House. But donations to elect House Democrats are PLUMMETING!! Just take a look for yourself.
Then, they insert a bar graph with 4 bars in it and nothing else – no numbers, nothing on either the X or Y axis, just 4 bars. What does it mean? It means nothing; it can’t mean anything, it’s just 4 lines. But they don’t care, they don’t have to. They’ve terrorized their donors beyond questioning anything, a word salad is enough.
That email said they needed 16,330 more “gifts” to meet their meaningless mid-month deadline. No dollar amount, just an arbitrary number of suckers giving them cash.
The next day, following up on the “5TH EMAIL FOR DEREK” came one that opened, “We asked once. We asked twice. Now we’re asking for a third time!” What happened to the other 2?
Whatever.
This new email was looking for 15,806 donations before their meaningless deadline. So, in the 20 hours between those 2 emails from the same group, they completely forgotten about 2 emails they’d sent and only garnered 524 alleged donations. Either that or there are multiple groups of morons working at the DCCC who don’t talk to each other about the fundraising emails they send or don’t care because they me and maybe one other person pay close enough attention to the crap they’re trying to pull to even notice it, and there isn’t a single sucker who gives money to Democrats who will ever read my stuff.
Doesn’t really matter. You know, and you knowing matters. Maybe they’ll find out through you, or at least we can have a good laugh at all of it as we watch fools and their money be separated.
