Been saying that for YEARS…..
Democrats ARE going to do some adjusting to THAT….
Or?
They gonna KEEP losing…..
(Don’t run ANOTHER Strong Woman Please in 2025…America isn’t ready for it)
For the next four years America is gonna have a an ole President who IS gonna keep fucking up like he did years ago….
But?
He’ll still have some support….
Why?
Because his crying, whinning, thievery and other things WILL BE what a LOT of Americans do….
And?
He WILL stand up, defyingly and LIE to you….
Joe Biden was the ‘Good Guy’…..
(Harris’s Boss)
Where do they finish?
Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-N.Y.), a moderate, told Axios’ Andrew Solender: “We have to stop pandering to the base and we have to start listening to the people … People are sick of extremism.”
- Ezra Klein, the popular liberal New York Times columnist, wrote Thursday: “I do think a lot of Democrats have alienated themselves from the culture that many people, and particularly many men, now consume. I think they lost people like Rogan by rejecting them, and it was a terrible mistake.”
The country has moved right on immigration and energy, and Democrats need a new approach — fast.
- The Senate border bill that Harris repeatedly pointed to was “an insider talking point that was too disconnected from what Americans had witnessed in their own communities for the past four years,” former Biden adviser Andrea Flores wrote on X. She says Democrats urgently need fresh ideas.
What we’re watching: There’ll be a strong tug back to the blue-collar-focused politics of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). He sounded more like Trump than his party elites. And Sanders was quick out of the gate with a scathing critique of his party’s rich, educated ruling elite.
- “It should come as no great surprise,” Sanders wrote, “that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working-class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.”
Hard to see Democrats losing bigger chunks of the working class and winning elections. So Sanders makes a great point. But Trump often sounds more like the socialist Sanders than a Mitt Romney.
- A real fight to best serve the less educated and less wealthy seems good for a nation divided by education and income, operating in a system tilted decisively to the latter.
Finally, Dems need to grapple with their denialism. Democrats let their hatred of Trump put them in a state of denial about Biden and the party’s unpopularity — confident that Trump’s toxicity was enough. They didn’t believe their own eyes when staring at polls.
- So they got crushed. Now they have dilemma and opportunity: In a 50-50 country, how do they articulate a theory of the case to win back voters — and power?
The bottom line: This will be the Democratic story of 2025…..
Note…..
It may get you the Democratic nomination…
But?
Progressives seem to be a DRAG for Democrats in National Elections….
And they yap….
But don’t seem to come out and vote….
Just protest…..
My Name Is Jack says
“Joe Biden ain’t going nowhere.”
James( approximately 48 hours before Biden withdrew)
Further ,he was highly critical of those here who were calling for Biden to withdraw.
Now?
You would think that James was a leading voice here in calling for Biden to step aside.
jamesb says
Absolutely Jack….
And I like EVERYBODY ELSE about Trump was wrong….
Shit Happens….
Even BAD Shit by MILLIONS of Americans….
