John Fetterman remains far more liberal than many conservatives would like, but when it comes to diagnosing the problems the Democrats have right now he keeps hitting the nail on the head.
The Democrats embarrassed themselves mightily last night with their childish behavior, mean-spirited harumphing at the president praising ordinary Americans triumphing over tragedy and great odds, and even shunning a young boy fighting cancer, the Democrats did a lot of damage to themselves out of spite.
A sad cavalcade of self owns and unhinged petulance.

It only makes Trump look more presidential and restrained.

If you ever wanted to understand the meaning of "bite your nose to spite your face," you saw it play out last night in the House of Representatives Chamber at the Capitol.

Democrats are big mad at Donald Trump as he runs circles around them politically. After years of bashing their heads against the wall to destroy Donald Trump they were soundly rebuked at the ballot box. All they have gotten for the effort is a decisive defeat at the ballot box and a massively empowered Donald Trump surrounded by some of the most ruthlessly competent people in America.
Now they are paying the price, and they can't wrap their bandaged heads around the scope of their defeat. And because they don't understand why their political ploys and persistent propaganda have failed to dent Donald Trump's power and popularity, they keep escalating the tactics that have led to their defeat.

Trump did something last night that is rare for him: he managed to hit emotional erogenous zones for Americans well beyond his MAGA base. There was nary a dry eye in the country when DJ Daniel was awarded his honorary Secret Service membership, but the Democrats managed to become enraged at Trump's Make a Wish moment.

MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace says she hopes the brave cancer kid, DJ Daniel, who was inducted into the Secret Service doesn't k*ll himself because of something like J6.
How deranged to you have to be to even say that? pic.twitter.com/1Gm0eCfPLj
It's one thing for the Trump deranged at MSNBC to make these outrageous statements to an audience that revels in Trump hatred, but quite another for Democratic politicians on the floor of the House Chamber to sit with sour looks on their faces as Trump celebrates American heroes and ordinary people facing and overcoming struggles.

Democrats have wrapped themselves tightly in the flag of a foreign country and clung to the idea that Americans will have more sympathy for federal workers than for their own families.
That is a bad look, and a striking contrast to President Trump's upbeat message.
🚨 CNN: 69% of Americans had a positive reaction to President Trump's speech. Nice! pic.twitter.com/SZ3fZy9G24

Around 70% of Americans who watched the speech approved of it, and we already know that Democrats in Congress have an approval rating hovering around 20%--half that of Republicans.
The Democrats didn't help themselves in the least with their antics last night. It was, as Fetterman says, ""A sad cavalcade of self owns and unhinged petulance."
