WASHINGTON, DC: Fox News host Laura Ingraham has delivered a scathing critique of the Democratic Party, focusing on what she perceives as their failure to adapt and improve despite widespread dissatisfaction with their policies.

On her show, 'The Ingraham Angle', the host took aim at the party’s attempt to rebrand itself through Vice President Kamala Harris, arguing that the Democrats continue to offer ineffective solutions under a new, albeit superficial, guise.

Laura Ingraham critiques Democratic party's rebranding as cosmetic change

Laura Ingraham's criticism revolves around the notion that the Democratic Party’s rebranding efforts are merely cosmetic and fail to address deeper issues.

She noted, “For years, polls have shown that Americans soured on the products they were offering, meaning the results of the Biden-Harris policies. Yet no matter what, the party refuses to change. Instead, they keep serving up the same terrible policies, only with a new pitch woman and new branding. We've gone from 'Dark Brandon' to 'Joyful Kamala.'”

She further questioned the effectiveness of this new approach, asking, “Why should Americans feel joyful or good if the product — again, the results of their policies — are stomach-churning?” 

Ingraham highlights Democrats' neglect of middle-class struggles

Ingraham also addressed the impact of these policies on ordinary Americans, arguing that the Democratic leadership has largely ignored the difficulties faced by the middle class.

She stated, “For three-and-a-half years, the Democrats have cruelly ignored the strain that these bad policies have put on middle-class Americans.”

According to Ingraham, the Democrats’ policies are inflexible and non-negotiable, reflecting a lack of genuine responsiveness to the needs of everyday people.

Laura Ingraham calls Harris-Walz campaign 'all vibes'

Laura Ingraham’s critique extended to President Biden, whom she describes as a “figurehead” and a “pitchman” for the Democratic Party’s ineffective agenda.

She suggested that Biden’s presidency was characterized by a “gloomy” outlook, marked by warnings of authoritarianism and existential threats posed by former President Trump.



 

“With Biden, the pitch was very gloomy. It was doom and gloom — warnings about how Trump will be a dictator, ‘it’ll be the end of democracy,'” Ingraham said.

In contrast, she described the current approach under Harris and Governor Tim Walz as lacking substance, focusing instead on superficial positivity.

She concludes, “With Harris and Walz, it's all vibes. It's all good, but no substance.”
