Full Episode
What happens when a leader is corrupted by a desire for power and fame? When the mission gets lost and they are willing to compromise everything for a buck, for a vote, for popularity, you name it. They might ride that high momentarily, but history and also current events have shown us that they will always inevitably fail.
And that is exactly what is happening right now with the modern Democrat Party. Now, it's not news to anyone that the Democrat Party is a mess after the 2024 election. I mean, they are like a floppy fish out of water. They have no idea what's going on. Nobody's working together. There is no unified message, and we are watching all of that unfold.
I think for them, it is pretty heartbreaking and disastrous, but for me, you know, I've been able to laugh at it. I think we've all been able to laugh at it over the last couple of months. I mean, they
completely lost touch with their voter base, they have lost the trust of their voter base, the party is now run by these geriatric elites who are trying to hold onto power, and then the party itself, like the grassroots messaging, is driven by left-wing young people who are radical and who hate most of the people who are actually in power. So it is just a complete mess.
And the smart thing to do, what I would advise, is, you know, to take a step back, to take a pause, to look inward, to do some self-analysis, you know, look at their failed policies, and maybe redirect. But of course, that strategy would just make too much sense. That would be too genuine. And of course, the Democrats cannot do that.
Instead, they have put David Hogg in charge of the DNC and Gavin Newsom started a podcast. Apparently, those are their two big strategies to take back power in 2028. And this podcast, Gavin Newsom's podcast, we've all been talking about it. It is actually indicative of a far broader trend that I want to talk about today that we've seen really with the Democrats for the last decade. Decade.
Calculated rebrands to try to reverse engineer authenticity and trust with voters. But I mean, come on. The gig is up. Whether it is Newsom on his new podcast, or Gretchen Whitmer's recent flirtation with Trump, Hillary Clinton's innocent grandma act and how she just has hot sauce in her purse, or Kamala being brat all last summer, it is all fake.
They are trying to emotionally manipulate their voters, but we are not falling for it, and neither are the modern Democrats. And on the show today to talk about how all of this happens from an insider's perspective is ex-RFK running mate and ex-California liberal, Nicole Shanahan.
