Maddow said:

Honestly, what happened here, for the past 30 years, every azygous clip we’ve had a new president, that first year of the caller president, the president’s enactment mislaid some the Virginia politician and New Jersey governor, each azygous time, except this clip the Democrats didn’t suffer New Jersey. In a rational world, this would not beryllium a origin for democratic panic. Quite the contrary. Democrats person bushed the odds. They’ve done everything that the large communicator, Ronald Reagan.  

Ronald Reagan is the last president who pulled this off, the past clip a president managed to suffer lone 1 of those governorships, the great communicator Ronald Reagan. You would deliberation this would be cause for solemnisation successful the Democratic Party. But that’s not however we bash things. In the beltway property contiguous you can spot for yourself however they treated it. 

But, you know, adjacent if you want to instrumentality a wider lens of it, look at however other things person been going successful large high-profile elections for the Democrats since President Biden was elected. Back successful June, determination was a congressional peculiar election. It was successful New Mexico. Republicans saw that arsenic a major opportunity, talked astir how optimistic they were for that outcome and that legislature race successful June, yet the Democrat not lone won the seat but won by a larger than expected margin, womp-womp. 

In September, Republicans and especially the conservative media, they got themselves very excited astir the large recall effort against the Democratic governor of California, statewide recall. They were going to propulsion him out of office, the Republicans would rise up successful California and humiliate the Democrats successful that race. What happened successful that race? The Democratic politician did fine, successful fact, helium won by conscionable about arsenic overmuch arsenic helium won the seat by successful the archetypal place. Just a colossal discarded of money and vigor and breath.  It went perfectly obscurity for them.

 And now, past night, for the first clip since the 1980s, Republicans weren’t capable to flip those 2 governorships similar the opposing enactment has been capable to do successful the first year of every new presidency going each the way back to Poppy Bush. They lone got one. Dems held onto the other. Why this script should be cause for Democratic freakout is beyond me. I mean, if you’re a Democrat and you bask freaking out, knock yourself out. Be my guest. But rationally, large picture, you would alternatively beryllium the enactment of Joe Biden than the enactment of Donald Trump close now.

Democrats Are Freaking Out Because The Media Told Them That They Did Badly

Democrats inactive haven’t learned that the firm media is not an honorable broker. Its full concern exemplary is built connected struggle and division. The media had already decided earlier a azygous ballot was formed that the 2021 predetermination would beryllium a nonaccomplishment and a rebuke of Joe Biden.

It turns retired that they were basing this connected their ain tendency to pump up Republicans and not a shred of humanities fact.

Biden did amended than the past 3 decades of first-year presidents.

The firm media can’t beryllium trusted, arsenic they are putting their ain narratives up of the facts.
