Whoever Thought This Video Was a Good Idea for the House Dem Leader Should Be Given a Raise

Rep. Hakeem Jefferies (D-NY) probably does not like his job right now. As leader of House Democrats, he’s been slapped down at every turn. On the Sunday shows, he’s reminded of the Democrats’ appalling poll numbers. On the Hill, his carefully crafted talking points about the GOP budget are eviscerated by a simple question: where’s the evidence?

Now, he’s claiming that the American people are on the Democratic Party’s side in a laughable video where he makes this point totally alone outside of the Capitol Building. It’s not just conservatives who are mocking this video:

Whoever thought this was a good idea deserves a raise. There should be more videos of the top Democrats being alone, screaming into the void about how they want illegal alien crime to explode, an open border, endless funding to the Ukraine quagmire, men participating in women’s sports and the rest of their agenda where they’re firmly on the opposite end of these 80/20 issues.
