The Dem Strategy of Embracing the Same Unpopular Positions but Swearing a Lot More Isn't Working

A memo went out at some point recently that clearly instructed the Democrats that they need to ramp up the use of profanity. Mindy wrote about the "strategy" shift a couple of weeks ago and her story contained an example shared by The Federalist's Mollie Hemingway:

This is a particularly annoying example of the problem, but it's time for elected officials in *both parties* to restrain themselves from gratuitous f-bombs and the like. https://t.co/vHyp2ih3rH

Now the Dem swearing is all over the place. You'll notice they're not dialing down on the insanity of the kinds of policies they support, but the F-bombs are flying:

Democrats are acting like a bunch of four-year-olds who learned their first curse words

I’m not saying I get upset if somebody drops a curse word now and then but they’re clearly trying to sound edgy when they’re not https://t.co/po6t8qdE9T

Considering what happened in the November election it's quite comical that the Dems think making this change will turn things around for them:

You keep the exact same policies 80% of Americans are openly opposed to……..but add cussing pic.twitter.com/ZaWWhPh6Ib

So how's the Democrats' "doubling down on the kinds of policies that voters have rejected but swearing a lot more" strategy working out so far?

Not good for them:
