Pollster Matt Towery joined Laura Ingraham on Fox News to try to explain the bizarre reasoning behind why Democrats keep doubling down on issues that keep blowing up in their faces.
Laura Ingraham remarked, “Wait, Matt, is that it? That’s their strategy for raising the middle class wages and the standard of living for Americans in the Rust Belt…. race?”
“They’re doubling down on racism, and that whole deal that failed for them last time around?”
Towery replied, “Well, they’re doubling down on everything that doesn’t work.”
“They’re getting these poll results back that say, ‘Oh, the people in your party want you to be tougher on Trump,’ hence you have incidents like today in Newark.”
“They are taking the exact wrong direction.”
“And you see the elders of the party,” he continued. “The folks who’ve been around a long time, saying, ‘No, no, no, you can’t do this.’
“No one’s listening.”
Towery added, “By the way, do you think AOC and the squad, like Jasmine right now, she’s taking a little of spotlight away from them. There’s going to be a big battle at some point as to who’s going to be the darling of the Democratic Party.”
“Like you said, she’s leapfrogging over at this moment.”
Watch:
During his remarks, Towery highlighted to an incident in Newark when Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver physically attacked ICE agents at Delaney Hall detention facility in Newark, New Jersey, on Friday.
Democrat members of Congress and Newark Mayor Ras Baraka went to ‘inspect’ the Delaney Hall detention facility in New Jersey when all hell broke loose.
According to News12NJ, Baraka was shouting at agents after he gained entry through the gate.
Baraka was arrested for criminal trespass after storming the facility and was released on Friday.
The Gateway Pundit reported that bodycam footage of the incident shows McIver verbally abusing and physically assaulting federal agents during the incident.
