The Washington Times:

Rep. Dean Phillips of Minnesota, who is weighing a Democratic primary challenge against President Biden, said Sunday he wants to see a “moderate governor” enter the race to unseat Mr. Biden.

“I would like to see a moderate governor, hopefully from the heartland from one of the four states that Democrats will need,” Mr. Phillips said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

As examples, he named Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker.

I’ll pause while you recover from your laughing spasm at the identification of Evers, Whitmer or Pritzker as “moderate.”

“Some people have asked me that I not use their names because of this institutional fear that it might impact you down the road. This is the time to meet the moment,” Mr. Phillips said. “I’m doing something that I know it’s unpopular as a Democrat, but I’m speaking truth. That’s my job. My duty is to the people I represent, but also to represent the mass majority.”

He went on to note that Mr. Biden‘s poll numbers in crucial states are underwater.

A recent poll forecasted a rough road ahead for Democratic spin doctors as evidenced by MSNBC’s “alarmed” Jen Psaki.

On Sunday, the former White House press secretary for President Joe Biden continued to do her part to coax the narrative in favor of the left up against some fairly damning numbers.

As the host of “Inside with Jen Psaki” would go on to note, a late July poll conducted by The New York Times and Siena College found that around 65 percent of registered voters believe that the country is heading in the wrong direction.

“Today we’re going to change things up a little bit,” she began as she highlighted a breakdown of that number. “In part because I was pretty alarmed when I saw a recent poll that 37 percent of voters think we’re in danger of failing as a nation. Failing.”

By comparison, heading into the red wave that wasn’t for the 2022 midterm election, 62 percent considered the country to be headed in the wrong direction in Oct., slightly up from 60 percent in Sept. and down from the massive 77 percent from that July.

Meanwhile, leading into the 2020 presidential election, which ultimately could have been decided for then-President Donald Trump had a select number of counties had their vote counts tallied up by mere thousands in his favor, only 56 percent of voters viewed the country as headed in the wrong direction. Additionally, 35 percent of voters saw the nation on the right track in Sept. 2020, while only 23 percent felt that way now.

Showing that her move from press secretary to pundit was little more than a title and venue change, Psaki proceeded to gaslight the audience by pointing to the roughly 250 “bipartisan” bills that had been passed in Congress throughout Biden’s tenure.

What she ignored as she touted signature pieces like the so-called Inflation Reduction Act, infrastructure legislation and gun reform lumped in with procedural bills, was how Democrats had been in control of both the House and Senate, and a handful of RINOs were involved in crossing the aisle for those “bipartisan” measures.

Governors have to get things done like passing balanced budgets instead of merely voting “present” (see Obama, Barack) or plagiarize another country’s politicians (see Biden, Joe, U.S. Senate).

How about we do something bipartisan and Republicans get rid of Trump and Democrats get rid of Bisden and Kamala Harris?
