It’s easier to blame activists than confront the real issue: the Democratic Party has long been shaped by powerful forces—corporate interests, lobbyists, and consultants—whose influence has neglected the real crises facing everyday Americans.

Democrats forgot to include the working. class people who struggle to survive.. We have forgot to validate the pain of all Americans, whether we believe they are experiencing it or not.. If a voting block believes in their pain then telling them it doesn't exist is not going to get their vote
I'm tired of playing the pity-violin for people who sneer at educated people regardless of income for being"elites," who want a six figure salary but won't retrain or update their skills, and who buy gas-guzzling SUVs to be trendy then complain about how expensive life is.
I understand your frustration. I think the problem is we as a population are frustrated in general. We want our lives to be easier and when its not we blame the government and not ourselves.
Yes. It's a crisis of expectations fuelled by 24-hour media and a rapacious economic system. I'd never think to blame a President for how much I earned! Complex forces drive the economy. I just keep learning, upgrading my skills to stay relevant and enjoy a simple life. (No car, no kids!)
A fortune has been spent convincing Americans "the left" is some evil force that is destroying the country when in fact it is just the political spectrum of the working class. Americans have to stop listening to the ultra rich and citizens united tell them whats good for them.
Its most easy to blame angry media that continuously lies to its uneducated viewers. Also easy to blamea media completely out of touch with the dangers of authoritarianism
I believe this. The left requires a level of purity from their candidates that does not exist in nature. They will denounce anyone over a single issue. The left will allow a walking disaster and wannabe dictator to run their country, all so they can complain and be victims. No consultant can help.
Nope. The reason is that more Americans are tuning out from vetted fact-based media to alternative unvetted, opinion based social media, podcasts, and right-wing "media" on the free TV streaming apps. That's the only possible explanation why MAGA is so shocked when reality smacks them in the face.
So the corporate Democratic Party got beat buy the corporate Republican Party whose leader advertises that he loves corporations and greed, craps his pants, and only talks about himself. Yeah—sure. Nice autopsy skills.
The main problem is Democrats don't have anything comparable to the Murdoch propaganda machine known as Fox "News" that blasts a focused firehose stream of far-right spin and distortion into every corner of US society, including the military. We need a firehose that streams simple truths.
Or maybe Dems have a messaging problem. The idea that "corporate interests" are the Democrats' problems when Trump is actively propped up by nefarious oligarchs and foreign actors is ridiculous.
The American people sing Kamala Harris. 7 million if you were people voted for the Democrat nominee than in 2020. I understand she was not voted for in the primary but those people essentially voted for Donald Trump and I have no respect for them

Every Red state that had abortion on the ballot got both Trump and health care (we’ll see how long that lasts🤬)
That's all this was
Quit pretending it’s anything else.
