Laura Ingraham: I'm Pissed!

Because of Laura Ingraham, Republicans lost.

The Republicans were never a party that had popular ideas. They never had candidates that appeal to a broad coalition of voters. In my honest opinion, the Republicans are too extreme. 

Yet, they are the ones who are calling the Democratic Party the extreme. 

The same folks who encourage their own voters to believe their elections were stolen, inflation is out of control but offer nothing to solve it, hype up talk about a coup or civil war, scaring bigots with talk about transgender women playing women sports being bad, claiming gay Americans are grooming children, banning books that talk about Black and indigenous history, supporting books that are racist, mocking Democrats lawmakers and their spouses getting hurt, sending migrants to Democratic mayoral cities, saying President Joe Biden has dementia, calling Vice President Kamala Harris stupid, trolling on social media, Hunter Biden's laptop is more serious than the Jan. 6 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, crime being rampant in "Democrat" cities, scaring white poor voters with fentanyl, the reckless handling of the coronavirus pandemic and the talk about Duchess Meghan of Sussex are the things on Republicans minds.

And it all brought to you by Fox.

Tucker Carlson, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Jesse Watters and Laura Ingraham are the undisputed noise of the far right extremists. Had Republican voters turned off the noise, they may of had better information about who they were dealing with.

Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) had a better ground game than Stacey Abrams. 

Sen-elect John Fetterman (D-PA) had a better ground game than Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH).

Mehmet Oz and Herschel Walker were fired by not only President Joe Biden but the American voters. They were the biggest losers not only to Washed Up 45 but the Republican Party.

Herschel Walker heads back to Texas.

They were election deniers, carpetbaggers and completely utterly stupid. Fox had ferociously pushed these two. They mocked Fetterman for having a stroke and it turned off people with disabilities. They claimed that Warnock ran over his ex-wife's foot in dispute, but completely ignored Walker putting a gun to his first wife's head, forced women to have abortions and literally mocking Black leaders. It turned off Black and young voters.

Yet the race was really close. I mean Walker lost by 34,000 votes. 

I am guessing most white voters supported Walker over Warnock. 

Ingraham for her part was pissed that Republicans failed to win the Senate despite barely winning the House. The far right noise maker claimed the leadership of Ronna Romney McDaniel, Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) led to Republican defeat. 

“We felt this coming. To me, it never felt like the Senate Republicans wanted this guy in office. He was a Trump pick, they didn’t like that … but there wasn’t the intensity on the part of the Republicans as there was on the part of Democrats,” Ingraham said on her show shortly after Tuesday’s runoff had been called for Warnock. “We have the same people in place in leadership. The same people in place, apparently at the RNC, perhaps that’s not changing. We just keep doing the same thing over and over again. I’m pissed tonight, frankly. I’m mad.”

Ingraham’s comments come as a number of conservative media pundits, including some on Fox News, have either blamed Washed Up 45 for this year’s GOP midterm performance or suggested the party seek new leadership. The former president has announced his intention to seek the Republican nomination for president in 2024.

She claims that if Republicans had a better approach to voting they could have flipped Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, New Hampshire and kept Pennsylvania.

Now they have Washed Up 45 as their top pick despite the turmoil he is facing.
