The only thing that matters to them is winning elections.

The Democrats are betting on failure.”
That’s how National Review’s Noah Rothman characterizes the Democratic Party’s response to the U.S.-Israeli attacks on the terrorist regime that controls Iran.
But Rothman has it only half right. Democrats aren’t just
betting on failure in Iran. They are trying to
engineer it. And not just in Iran, but at home as well, where they are actively trying to undermine the economy.
Because, you see, the midterms are coming up, and to Democrats, what matters isn’t the well-being of Americans or ridding the world of its chief terrorist threat. The only thing that matters is winning elections.
While Ayatollah Khamenei’s body was still warm, Democrats were pushing a War Powers Resolution that would have blocked President Donald Trump’s ability to carry out any further attacks against Iran without first getting congressional approval.
It wasn’t intended to succeed, only to sow division in the country.
Now Democrats are looking to deny the administration funds to continue to prosecute the war.

The constant refrain of attacks hasn’t stopped Trump, but has managed to dampen public support, which now sits at 43% and quite possibly is helping to steel the Iranian government’s resolve.
The only Democrat to buck his party has been Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman, who recently
pointed out that “Every member in the U.S. Senate agrees we cannot allow Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon. I’m baffled why so many are unwilling to support the only action to achieve that.”
So, the Democrats’ strategy is to hope for failure, bet that the region erupts in chaos, even if it means more American lives are lost, all to drive down Trump’s popularity.
When not sowing discord about the war, Democrats are actively trying to talk down the economy and doing whatever they can to make their dire predictions come true.
As Reuters noted, the 43-day government shutdown that Democrats engineered last fall shaved 1.15 percentage points of the nation’s GDP in the fourth quarter.

Inflation has been well below the Biden years for Trump’s entire second term. Real wages are up. Until the shutdown took a bite out of the GDP, the previous two quarters came in “unexpectedly” strong.
Don’t expect media “fact-checkers” to point any of this out. But the constant bleating about economic turmoil can affect consumer confidence, which in turn can bring about the results Democrats are predicting.
Rooting for failure so they can seize power. That’s what today’s Democrats are all about.
Commentary:
You can either be a Democrat or an American; you can’t be both.
This is about permanent Progressive power by orchestrating all failures themselves and blaming it on the President when they used the power of the purse to fail. We saw this in Vietnam when they singlehandedly gave the nation to Communists.
Nothing matters to Dems more than regaining power.
They are a Clear and Present Dangerous threat to “Our Democracy”.
Democrats went against the US. when they opened the borders during the Obama administration and initiated the destruction of America. Dem voters don’t realize what their party did to them to this day.
The perception that political disagreements in the United States constitute a, "running the ball the opposite direction" for the country is a common sentiment in a highly polarized environment, where actions taken by one party are often viewed by the other as destructive to national interests that have existed since the birth of this nation.
