He’s not wrong. It’s time the democrats put their big boy pants. Or big girl panties. Admit they lost. All the progressives hot behind Harris and campaigned. You will see me telling Gen Z and Gen X. Register as unaffiliated. If they are democrat. Change it.

Much like 2016, the DNC will blame everyone but themselves.

Well said, sir.

Look this is how I see it. We had Clinton campaign pro-corporate fat cats whispering in her campaign's ears in 2020 which led to her dropping before voting. Politico reported that those same people told her to drop "weird" and drop "we're not going back" which would become pillars.

Then her brother-in-law gets in her ear to push towards the Right at the 10 yard line and instead of going for a touchdown. We bench Walz for Cheney. It was a very strange way to end what was an effective campaign at that point. The establishment and its inability to fully commit to pro-working

Class policies and their need to pivot to the center to not scare away the billionaire class is why they lose. We need to purge the Clintons, the Cheneys, these Wall Street ghouls and focus on winning. Which means not abandoning our constituents.

Not only that, the Dems didn't give a single concession to left-wing demands during the campaign. Not a single one. But then liberals have the gall to say that somehow the left fringe of the party is culpable for its defeat.

They were further right than left in every way. Biden was not the act to emulate and we should have had a primary.

Gaza ....not a tear for Gaza ...no strategy for Gaza ....no solution
Gaza ....Israel has the right to defend itself from 2,000 Dead Palestinian Children under 12 years of age.

Bankrupt foreign policy

It was a host of factors, but it was definitely NOT the progressive populist ideas. AOC proved that

To blame Kamala Harris for her own defeat is to ignore the reality of the Liar’s Dividend: The difference in vote totals exactly measures the dividend paid to Trump for lying, false promises, hollow reassurances, and especially the denial of Project 2025.

He is correct.

Genocide support is neither left or right. It is pure evil and satanic. She appealed to Satan and lost.

A truer word was not spoken
