gomper Posted November 12 Posted November 12 I think Trump is horrifying but he won and it wasn't close. The D's are always an election behind the times. Blame Garlund, blame Biden, blame Harris and her inability to distance herself from Biden. Blame everyone. One fact that won't be blamed is they have lost the working class because of the corporate money inside their own party. They are so completely out of touch with what people have to go through just to survive and acted shocked when those same, vote for populist ideas. Didn't Biden say he was only in it for one term? Then when he crumbles, they just toss Harris in. Oh, with 107 days until the election. Lol. What did they expect? The cruel irony is it's about to get rougher for the working class. Trump is not their friend. The D's on the other hand have only themselves to blame. They had 4 years to prepare for Trump and handled it about as poorly as possible and get humiliated at the polls in the process. D's need to root out the entrenched people in upper level positions for new blood. I don't have a lot of faith.
Big Blitz Posted November 12 Posted November 12 Dam. What policies circa 2020 could have led to this??? Opinion The voter shift that should alarm Democrats most Donald Trump won more votes than he had before almost everywhere in the United States. Voters shifted right in rural areas, in suburbs and even in New York City. But it’s the urban areas that should unnerve Democrats most. These places are led by liberal mayors and city councils. They are diverse, and they are economically powerful. Take a look at America’s 50 biggest local economies (as measured by GDP in 2022). In 2020, Trump won only one of them. In 2024, he took nine and made significant gains in nearly all of them. He flipped Miami, Phoenix (Maricopa County), Orange County, Calif. (near Los Angeles) and Nassau County, N.Y., on Long Island. It was the best showing in urban areas for a Republican since 2004. His gains reversed an urban shift toward Democrats that had seemed locked in since the Obama years. https://archive.is/ekUvB 2

How out of touch do you have to be lose the urban vote. It's so obvious that the Clinton/Obama/Schultz etc power structure has to be purged. Bernie said as much this weekend and the Dem power elite basically told him to shut up. I keep hearing about what a deep bench they have, but what good is it if the leaders of the party think it's still 2013? 1

But, it’s only 2 years to change congress. When things get “rougher”, votes will change. People voted on grocery bills and rent costs. Those aren’t improving anytime soon. Much damage can be done before that. We need a new leader tho, I agree. We’ll see one rise. And we’ll make a bigger tent even if it’s done with false promises. Hell, that’s what it takes to win, sadly. Edited November 12 by Joe Ferguson forever 1 1 1
