The Democrats Are in Denial About 2024

Yes, yes, they are, as we’ve reported extensively. The Times acts like innocent bystanders to the tragedy, as if they haven’t been among the left’s staunchest cheerleaders in modern times and constantly pushed the radical progressivism they’re suddenly distancing themselves from.

Remember the meme of Homer Simpson trying to make himself invisible by shrinking into a hedge? The Grey Lady, acting like NPCs (non-playing characters), is trying to shrink away from the destruction and disinformation which they were deeply involved in. Get this gaslighting drivel:

“Defeat has a long history of inspiring honest reflection in politics. In this time of frustration and anxiety for Democrats, they should give it a try,” the editorial board writes. https://t.co/80qYpgrZsX

One of their most ludicrous suggestions is that the Dems admit they struggled with the issue of Biden’s obvious deterioration. “They should admit that their party mishandled Mr. Biden’s age,” the legacy outlet argued.

Of course, the Grey Lady was all in on dismissing Biden’s cognitive abilities—memo: it wasn’t his “age” that was the problem, NYT—and trying to convince us that Kamala Harris was the bestest candidate ever. They’ve been preaching to their “elite” readership for decades about the virtues of leftism, so much so that they’ve forgotten where the center even is. To pretend they’re not part of the problem is nauseating.
