LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Foxnews host Jesse Watters'. Known for his candid commentary and sharp wit, Watters recently took to 'Jesse Watters Primetime' to dissect what he perceives as a Democratic Party teetering on the edge of a profound existential crisis.

According to Watters, the Democrats are currently engulfed in what can only be described as a "full left-wing meltdown."

Democrats grapple with looming carter-esque blowout

Drawing on insights from historian Victor Davis Hanson, Watters paints a stark picture of a party careening towards a potential electoral disaster akin to Jimmy Carter's in 1980.

He highlights concerns over President Joe Biden's alleged cognitive decline and the unsettling prospect of a presidency or continued vice presidency under Kamala Harris.

"Historian Victor Davis Hanson says Democrats are heading into a 1980 Carter-esque blowout, and the party's descending into a full left-wing meltdown. Democrats have been left powerless over what VDH says is the escalating dementia of Joe Biden and the terror instilled by the specter of either a president or continued Vice President Harris."

"The left is gripped by fear," Watters asserts, attributing this anxiety to a series of perceived missteps and scandals that have plagued Democratic governance. 

"The left fears all it did to destroy democracy. The raids, arrests, the gag orders might boomerang on them. The collapse of hoaxes like Russia collusion, the laptop, two impeachments and five criminal trials have left the Democrats in a state of hysteria disguised by their deranged fantasies."

Democratic policies backfire as election day approaches

"The more the Democrats double down on their policies," Watters continues, "such as student loan bailouts, executive amnesty, and cannabis legalization, the more apparent it becomes that their strategies are not only repugnant to many Americans but also counterproductive to their electoral ambitions."

"The more the Democrats pander with student loan bailouts, executive amnesty and cannabis, the more obvious, repugnant and counterproductive it becomes. But that's not all you're going to see until Election Day."



 

Watters predicts that this sense of disillusionment will only intensify as the midterm elections loom large. "Democrats are entering a cycle of grief," he declares, echoing Hanson's analysis. "Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and eventually acceptance – these are the stages they will traverse as they confront the reality of their political predicament."

"Are you ready? Democrats are entering what VDA calls a proverbial cycle of denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. The stages of grief. Stage one: Denial. Democrats are going to tell you everything you see isn't true. It's the 'cheap fake' hoax."

Public reaction: divided opinion on political commentary

The discourse surrounding Jesse Watters' recent remarks has sparked a range of reactions online, reflecting the polarized nature of contemporary political debate.

One user wrote, "TDS and the 5 stages of grief are a double whammy to political/mental disorders."



 

Another wrote, "My first thought this morning was about the stages of grief. With a troll that came at me."



 

One user replied, "The stages of grief are no longer used, but okay."



 

Another commented, "Does he write his own lies or does he have help?"



 

One said, "I smell desperation."



 

Another added, "Hey Jesse, projection is not your best argument, sir!"



 

One added, "And sheer unadulterated shock!"
