Some of Democrats’ once-hateable figures are out of the picture. And emerging democratic socialists haven’t made for strong lines of attack nationwide.
Republicans have tried to find a new boogeyman this year as they rail against Democratic socialism and the “radical” left: Zohran Mamdani. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Bernie Sanders.
Still more mentioned than all of them, at least in campaign ads: former President Joe Biden.
A POLITICO review of hundreds of ads running in battleground House and Senate races in recent months shows Republicans largely haven’t seized on progressive icons in paid media. Instead, Biden is the Democrat most likely to be mentioned in GOP ads this cycle, coming up across dozens of races.

Trans-Commies are coming for YOU!
Sweet, when will they get here? I’ll put the kettle on.
Legitimately, if a transgender communist came to my door to evangelize, I’d welcome them
Ooo la la
Fucking Christmas, it is.
Hot
They better come faster or I’m raiding their fridge and leaving naught but vegetables.
I had to laugh: even that dumbass Marge could see through their bullshit “ZOMG! CARAVANS ARE HEADING FOR THE BORDER!” ploy. It’s amazing that goobers in Sisterfuck Arkansas would literally watch b-rolls of the SCARAVANS and think that omg, those people were going to be heading right to their houses…
🙄
“We have not seen a caravan headed to the U.S. southern border in several years, why now?” Greene wrote on X. “Oh yeah, there is an election coming and the GOP needs to scare you into voting because nothing else is working.”
Promise?
Normally when that happens to countries in history they just default to “the Jews”
Now it is the Muslims who are blamed for everything
Yep.
A bit of good news this morning?
Too bad Joe is still hanging around. I suppose him dying wouldn’t have stopped them from invoking his ghost, though. Their bag of tricks is running dry. It’s hard to keep blaming Biden two years after he left. It’s comical, really. I hope they keep it up.
I’m also hoping gas prices keep going up, we’re at $4.36/gallon national average. Love to see that hit $5 before the election.

Not if your dwindling supporter base is full of contestants in a “Sloth from the Goonies” look-alike competition.

Judging by how I’d hear angry old white men still bitching about FDR when I was a kid, I don’t think it would.

They do. It’s just unfortunately Trump.
I’m more afraid of the idea that they think they don’t need one anymore because they can’t lose anymore.
Communism! Hasan Piker! Zohran Mamdani and his scary fast and free buses are coming for you! We’re losing the culture war to Abdul MOHAMED El-Sayed because he’s walking away from it on Fox News! Turn up the Islamophobiaaaa!
Is what Republicans will fall back on
Biden is the Democrat most likely to be mentioned in GOP ads
What even the fuck. The guy who left these dolts with an economy that was “the envy of the world”, and they proceeded to fuck up royally?
And the guy who isn’t even running in any races, and is battling cancer?
The right are just unhinged monkeys.
They don’t need a boogeyman. They get 100% of what they want 100% of the time. They will likely stay in power regardless of the midterm results. No one has pushed back in any significant way to cause change, so why would it change?
