Theater of the Absurd

“We’ve got a feeble-minded, trigger-happy president who plunged us into a war where no threat was present, with no clear objectives and no exit plan. We need to call that what it is. That’s fascism.” —Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz

Delusions of Grandeur

“Yes, I am.” —Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) when asked by Fox News’s Maria Bartiromo, “Are you suggesting that Obama’s leadership on Iran was better?”

“Barack Obama was a great statesman who left America much safer. I wouldn’t put Donald Trump in the same paragraph.” —Ro Khanna

Pot Calling the Kettle Black

“We are dealing with the most corrupt, callous, and incompetent presidential administration in the history of the United States.” —former Vice President Kamala Harris

Fearmongering

“We got no gas. Can’t get a whole lot of food.” —"The View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg

Lack of Self-Awareness Award

“Ninety percent of Virginians are not Democrats. That’s true. But about 100% of Virginians want election results to be respected. We’re deeply worried that Donald Trump will try to interfere with the election results this November or in 2028 … and we have to have a Congress that will stand up to it.” —Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) regarding partisan gerrymandering (“We need to rig the redistricting to get a 10-1 split to fight the ‘tyranny’….” —Tim Graham)

Straight From the Horse’s Mouth

“If the Democrats win the presidency and both houses of Congress, I think on day one they should make Puerto Rico [and] DC a state, and they should expand the Supreme Court to 13. … Don’t run on it. Don’t talk about it. Just do it.” —Democrat strategist James Carville

For the Record

“The Anti-America Fake News Media is rooting for Iran to win, but it’s not going to happen, because I’m in charge! Just like these unpatriotic people used every ounce of their limited strength to fight me in the Election, they continue to do so with Iran. The result will be the same.” —President Donald Trump

The Bottom Line

“Every time an illegal alien votes, he disenfranchises an American citizen — which is exactly what Democrats want!” —Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX)

“Stop importing people who hate America. It’s the land of the free, not the jihadists.” —Rep. Clay Fuller (R-GA)

And Last…

“American Airlines is resuming flights between Venezuela and New York City. GREAT NEWS for people trying to flee a third-world communist s**thole and go to VENEZUELA.” —Jimmy Failla
