The Kevin Jackson Show
There is no shortage of stories reminding us of one very important fact about the modern Left: They are incredibly committed to learning absolutely nothing. It’s almost impressive. At this point, refusing to learn has become a core competency. If there were a college degree in “Ignoring Reality While Demanding Reality Apologize,” half of Washington would graduate with honors. And the bill for that stubbornness is coming due. A new national survey from I&I/TIPP, a pollster with a strong track record of accurately projecting presidential election outcomes, shows President Donald Trump’s standing improving heading into July. The interesting part isn’t just Trump’s numbers. It’s where the movement is happening. Republicans are consolidating. Independents are moving. And Democrats? Well, let’s just say the political weather forecast is calling for more internal thunderstorms. The phrase used in the report was that “Democratic views worsened.” That is one of those polite phrases you see in political reporting. It’s like saying a restaurant’s food was “interesting” when everyone at the table is quietly reaching for the antacid. Democrats aren’t just having a bad week. They’re having the kind of identity crisis where the GPS says, “Recalculating,” but even the GPS sounds exhausted. And this is the part that should concern Democrats: they still seem to think the problem is messaging. No. The problem is that voters are looking around and saying, “Wait a minute. The people telling us how the world works don’t seem to have noticed the world.” That’s a dangerous place for any political party. Because voters can forgive mistakes. They can forgive bad ideas. They can even forgive politicians being politicians. But voters do not like being treated like they’re too stupid to notice what’s happening. And Democrats are finding out that voters have eyes. They see the economy. They see public safety. They see immigration. They see government institutions that have spent years telling them one thing while reality keeps filing complaints. Speaking of reality, we have to talk about some of the issues where the Left expected the public to stay permanently angry. Remember when enforcing immigration laws was supposed to be political poison? Apparently not. We were told that any serious enforcement of immigration laws would create some kind of national uprising. But as enforcement ramps up, the reaction from many Americans seems less like outrage and more like, “Wait, you mean the government is actually enforcing the law?” Imagine that. It turns out there are people who believe a country should know who is entering it. Wild concept. Somewhere a bureaucrat just dropped his coffee because he heard someone say the word “border” without immediately adding a 47-page disclaimer.
