Dem senator reveals: Democrats are 'too smart'

Watch out for a “blue wave” in America’s governance now.

One brilliant Democratic voice, who once expressed confusion when told those who break the law are detained, has revealed her party’s problem:

Members are “too smart.”

Democratic Senator Mazie Hirono says Democrats have a hard time “connecting” with voters because of how “smart” they are and because they “know so much.”pic.twitter.com/S7Hwr2whnP

The conclusion comes from Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii.

In an interview, she explained how Democrats need to speak to people to convince them that the party is on their side.

“We have a really hard time doing that … because we Democrats know so much,” she said. “That is true, and we have to kind of tell everybody how smart we are and we have a tendency to be very left-brain.”

Twitchy’s verdict came down like a hammer: “Is she for real?”

“...it’s just that so much of what they “know” is wrong...”

Well we’re sure glad you told us how smart you are!

We’re just filled with gratitude.

Those who have to tell you they're smart, aren't.

Unfortunately, what you know so much of just is not so.

It’s really a common sense thing. Dems have very little.

Yep. When they lose elections it's because they didn't "get their message out", meaning that the people were too stupid to understand.

I think the Dems are too stupid to know that we (the voters) understand them all too well...

Proving that anyone can be a US Senator too! Now I see why I can’t make sense of any of Maxine Waters incomprehensible rants. It’s because she’s too damn “smart”.

Dunning-Kruger in all its glory. Really, the Dems need to change their party name to the Dunning-Kruger party.

LOL. I recall hearing some of this about Obama, about how he was such a brilliant intellectual, etc. Someone once said that Obama was so brilliant, that it was a step down for him, to apply his intellect to being president.

Yes I know how crazy that sounds, but some liberal types think this way.

They have had the Media, FOR DECADES, telling people that Democrats are smarter than the average person. Remember how Hillary was going to do things SMARTER?? I think that those of us that detest most Democrats do so because of their smugness, not their supposed intellect.

Well isn’t it obvious? She’s so smart she knows we can be 100% green energy by 2030 or so. Once she’s sworn in she’ll reveal her plans on just how to do it. LOL!
