January 1, Democrats in Disarray as State Lawmakers Defect to GOP

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY…
1743: Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States, was born in Shadwell, Virginia. Jefferson is one of the most famous and influential figures in American history, known for his role in drafting the Declaration of Independence, his advocacy for religious freedom and civil liberties, and his efforts to expand the country’s territory through the Louisiana Purchase….

Well, well, well, it looks like the Democrats just can’t catch a break, can they? Another state lawmaker has decided to abandon ship and jump over to the Republican side. This time it’s Louisiana state Rep. Jeremy LaCombe. And let me tell you, he’s not the first, nor will he be the last. Just last month, Louisiana state Rep. Francis Thompson made the switch, and earlier this month, North Carolina state Rep. Tricia Cotham did the same. That’s three Democrats in less than a month. It’s like they’re fleeing a sinking ship.

Now, the Democrats might be scratching their heads, wondering why this keeps happening. But the answer is pretty obvious, isn’t it? President Biden’s approval rating is in the toilet. According to a recent Fox News poll, he’s not doing so hot with women, voters ages 45 and up, suburban voters, rural voters, and even Democratic men. That’s pretty much everyone! And let’s not forget that he’s only got a third of Americans thinking he deserves to be re-elected in 2024. Those are some pretty dismal numbers.

It’s not just about Biden, though. It’s about the Democrats as a whole. They’ve lost their way. They’ve become the party of big government, identity politics, and cancel culture. They’re more interested in tearing down statues than building up the country. They’re more concerned with virtue signaling than actually getting things done. They’ve lost touch with the average American, and they’re paying the price for it.

That’s where the Republicans come in. We believe in individual freedom and responsibility. We believe in the Constitution and the values that have made America great. We believe in hard work and meritocracy. We’re not interested in tearing down statues, we’re interested in building up the country. We’re not interested in canceling people, we’re interested in having open and honest discussions. We’re not interested in dividing people based on their race, gender, or sexuality, we’re interested in bringing people together as Americans.

So, to all the Democrats out there, I have a message for you: it’s not too late to come to the light side. We welcome you with open arms. We welcome anyone who believes in the values that have made this country great. We welcome anyone who believes in individual freedom and responsibility. We welcome anyone who believes in the Constitution and the rule of law. It’s time to put aside our differences and come together as Americans. It’s time to see the light… But it better not be Bud light!

The Hard Facts:

State Rep. Jeremy LaCombe from Louisiana announced that he is leaving the Democratic Party and joining the Republican Party, becoming the second Louisiana Democrat in less than a month and the third nationwide to switch party affiliations. The reasons for his departure are unknown. Last month, Louisiana state Rep. Francis Thompson and North Carolina state Rep. Tricia Cotham also switched to the Republican Party, giving Republicans in their state Houses a supermajority. President Biden is facing a near-record low approval rating among key groups, including women, voters ages 45+, suburban voters, rural voters, and Democratic men, according to a recent Fox News poll. Biden’s approval rating is at 41% among suburban women. Another recent poll found that only a third of Americans believe Biden deserves to be re-elected in 2024.
