Money is drying up for the Democrats as donors big and small withhold the loot, according to The Hill.
"Democratic donors — from bundlers to small dollar donors — say they are still angry about the election results and uninspired by anything their side has put forward since then,” accprding to the article.
One major donor said:
"They want us to spend money, and for what? For no message, no organization, no forward thinking. … The thing that’s clear to a lot of us is that the party never really learned its lesson in 2016. They worked off the same playbook and the same ineffective strategies, and to what end?”"
Well, the guy half gets it. The dirty little secret is the Democrats have almost NEVER deviated from their standard playbook in a hundred years. They never needed to because the Republicans responded in the exact same way every time. It worked because they had the media carrying their water and the media had incredible power. But nobody trusts the media anymore and there is plenty of new media with citizen jounralists breaking stories that, in the past, the big media would spike. And the playbook would have worked on another Republican ooo; Trump is in a class by himself and stopped playing by the agreed-upon rules of the game (which guaranteed Democrat victories and Republican humiliation.)
The only really new Democrat since Roosevelt was Clinton, and he still used much of the same playbook. Clinton was devious and co-opted the GOP successes. In fact he never did win more than a plurality in either of his elections and he lost the House. He was hardly as popular as he is now made out to be (yes, he had high poll numbers but those were not indicative of anything; the polls were being manipulated to help Clinton stay in office by frightening the coswardly GOP into going easy on him with the impeachment. Oh, and that was the Jenny Jones/Jerry Springer era and Clinton was sympathetic to the folks who watched such garbage.)
Now the big donors (and small) are realizing the direction their party has taken is leading to the real crazies becoming the base, and the party has reached the event horizon; it can go no further. Money down a rat hole.
And with DOGe cutting off the government money being laundered to the Democrats why would they risk actual dollars that won't be matched by taxpayer funds? Betterto cut their losses now.
We are at an historic moment in history; we have a real chance to shatter the Democrats once and for all. We have the right man for the job, the right people in place. There is a real chance the Democratic Party could dissolve completely, or splinter into multiple parties. They appear to be the modern Whigs.
Control of vast sums of dark money from taxpayers and the ability to steal key elections via a sophisticated vote fraud machine have been two of the Democrat cornerstones of power. DOGE is ruining the first, and the DOJ may well start work on the latter soon enough.
Which is why there will be a cataclysmic event that will occur in the near future. They are trying to figure out what to do at the moment; another pandemic is one of their ideas, for instance. That would fail because it's old news and nobody trusts them on it anymore. They could assassinate Trump but they already tried that to no avail. If it happens everyone will know they had a hand in it.
There is still the Federal Reserve, which could contract the money supply to trigger a massive recession. Or they could jack interest rates through the roof.
The CIA and other sinister black op organizations are still there, and another assassination attempt, this one done professionally, could still come. Of course that would mean J.D. Vance gets into power, but who knows what will happen then? Vance is a familly man with small children after all; hostoges to fortune. He would know what a Trump assassination meant for him and his family.
Then there is always the possibility of war. One well-placed nuclear weapon taking out an American city could change the political climate, and don't think some of the Democrats, perhaps most, wouldn't consider that.
There was a television show on during the mid 2000nds called Jerico. It is famous for the "peanut campaign" to save the show (where, after the show mentioned Mccauliff and the 101st at Bastogne, the fans sent tons of peanuts to the CBS headquarters until they promised to bring the show back for a summer season to at least end the show properly.) Jerico was about a terrorist nuclear attack on the U.S. and the small town in Kansas that fought to survive the aftermath. In the show you learn that a cabal of politicians in league with a major corporate entity used a scenario they wargamed for the DOD, stealing nuclear weapons and taking out 23 cities and setting themselves up as the new government.
While I doubt they would go THAT far, they may be willing to sacrifice one city in a bright red state - Palm Beach, maybe. They might even be willing to take out New York City if Eric Adams refuses to leave...
I am fully convinced Covid was their game-changer last time and I think it was INTENTIONALLY released to get rid of Trump and MAGA. I think they knew it was a killer but not the Black Death and it was a price they were willing to pay - most of them are Malthusians anyway, believing overpopulation is humanity's top problem and this was a way to thin the herd. They'll do it again if they feel cornered.
There are any number of other things they could do; take down the electric grid with a computer virus, take down our satellites the same way, cause some huge catastrophe', say, in air traffic or rail traffic. Anything that undermines the confidence of the American People in Trump's policies. They will blame DOGE for these sorts of things.
And there is always terrorism. Another 911 would lead to much acrimony and finger pointing.
Even if these things didn't work they would set the stage for later elections, and would boost the Democrats in Congress,where they could restart their endless war against the orange peril.
But don't expect them to develop totally new tactics; everything they do will be just an updated version of their old playbook. They have no creativity because they are not independent thinkers. They all move in lockstep because they think like a flock of birds or army ants, but they never come up with original ideas.
I was watching the t.v. show Under the Dome, which is about aliens turning people into pod people. (You can see I spend too much time watching t.v. these days.) The alien people were unable to do ANYTHING without being led. And when their leader jumped off a building they all followed suit. That reminded me of Democrats; they do it because, well, they are SUPPOSED to do it.
At any rate the Democrats are seeing their funding dry up and that has to scare the bejesus out of them. They are going to get quite desperate and when cornered a rat always attacks. It's going to get coyote ugly before long.
