Have you heard all the outrage from the GOP at the Biden-Regime’s ukase that “forgives” student loan debt? Indeed, even Sun-King Sununu … who strives to be on both sides of an issue … has joined the bloviating:
While Sun-King is correct, the effect of Biden’s action and the GOP’s reaction will be to juice turnout of the Democrat base. Imagine the reaction of the proverbial “suburban mom” in Bedford, whose vote the NHGOP-Establishment so covets … MOCK MY TWIN DEGREES IN INTERSECTIONAL GARDENING AND DECONSTRUCTING PATRIARCHAL GAMING THEORY, HOW DARE THEY.
BUT will it have the same effect on GOP voters? Since Biden was inaugurated, the GOP “leadership” … primarily Mitch McConnell … has dampened if not destroyed enthusiasm among GOP voters. From a recent article by Miranda Devine:
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and his House counterpart, Kevin McCarthy, “don’t inspire anybody,” [pollster] Baris said.
“The Republican Party is in an identity crisis,” Baris said. “They’re not capturing the anger of the views that we’re seeing in the Republican base. It’s hard to talk about inflation when you send 50 billion [dollars] to Ukraine. People are saying, ‘What about me?’ ”
It’s not about promising tax cuts or wailing about the economy. Republican voters correctly think they are under attack on all fronts, and they don’t see their representatives acting accordingly. …
… Joe Biden is the most unpopular president in modern history, Dems have tiny majorities and no mandate to wreck the country in the way they are. So Republican voters feel their party is just rubberstamping ruinous legislation and not putting up a real fight.
That “red wave” the GOP-Establishment has been taking for granted is getting bluer and bluer by the day.
