Democrat Fails, Hypocrisy, and Lies

Debunking Democrat Spin

Rapid Response

Ahead of tonight’s first Republican National Committee presidential primary debate, the Democrat spin machine has been out in full force.

But all Democrats have are lies, smears, and absurdities.

Here’s what top Democrats and Democrat surrogates are saying:

“By every measure, my friends, [Biden and Harris] have delivered!” (DNC Chair Jaime Harrison)

Biden and Harris have certainly delivered — a 16.9 percent price hike, a 2.63 percent decline in real wages, surging gas prices, record credit card debt, open borders, and so much more.

“[‘Bidenomics’] is not a vulnerability!” (DNC Chair Jaime Harrison)

Actually, it is — because Americans aren’t buying the “Bidenomics” spin. In fact, the top two phrases Americans associate with “Bidenomics” are “higher inflation” and “tax increases.”

“Come to cities! Because Democrat mayors all across the nation are creating GREAT places where people WANT to be!” (Mayor of Madison, WI, Satya Rhodes-Conway)

Then why are Americans leaving Democrat-run cities in droves? It surely has nothing to do with the violent crime, high costs of living, declining test scores, or tyranny of power-hungry Democrat politicians.

“The reality of the economic recovery that we are living through is pretty dramatic!” (Minnesota Sen. Tina Smith)

Wrong. Americans overwhelmingly say their financial situation is not improving — with a plurality who say it’s actively “getting worse” — while 60 percent of workers report living paycheck-to-paycheck. Meanwhile, most Americans think the country is on the wrong track under Biden.

“[Biden and Harris] are fighting tooth and nail for the freedoms that we hold near and dear to our hearts!” (Mayor of Madison, WI, Satya Rhodes-Conway)

Whether it’s locking Americans down, targeting parents at school board meetings, colluding with Big Tech to censor Americans, or attempting to restrict the right to bear arms, the Biden administration has launched an unprecedented assault on Americans’ constitutional rights and freedoms.

“President Harris!” (Wisconsin Democrat Party Chair Ben Wikler)

When Republicans say 2024 is about stopping a potential Kamala Harris presidency, they mean it.

Tonight, Republican candidates will outline their visions for a stronger, more prosperous America — and the difference will be crystal clear.
