If he had the working class he would have won in the south. He has the progressive elite. He’s not in the trenches with racists economically anxious people anywhere outside of Vermont. To them he is just another east coast liberal with the accent to boot.
He never got a chance to to see any crossover appeal in the general. It's partially his fault for ignoring the South during the primaries but alot of non interested voters, young people, etc. would be on his side with a wider platform. Joe Rogan endorsed him and it was looked at as a negative at the time.

They're probably ratcheting to the right - again.

Beshear will be our Clinton.
They cannot tag him as extremist
A true moderate from a pure red state
And when they lose. Democrats will say "maybe we need to move even more to the right" :dead:

DNC does not get it. A fukking joke.

Democrats need to talk to the people , i think the party kind of disowned everyday citizens. Republicans for some odd reason speak to them nowadays

The right mediums, social media, podcasts etc


The Democrats need someone with juice, charisma.


All of their candidates seem milqtoast thus far although I havent heard that that brother from maryland yet though.


But they need someone captivating beyond policies and narratives.


Thats why Trump is able to hang unto his base, He didnt not lose as many voters as the last time.


Harris lost 15 million to Bidens 81 million.


Although I voted for her as she was the only option to take down Trump, she was stale, didnt have juice.


Apparently many people, betting young hispanic and black men werent enthralled and stayed home

Just let the Republicans govern.

Lowkey, this is always the best remedy. Its just the courts are fukked for a good portion of our lives. Thats something that cant be taken back.

Everything else can be in some capacity.

Every Republican Administration since Nixon has been a fiasco

Reagan gave bush 1 a recession.

Bush 2 tanked a Bill clinton built surplus, ran a deficit, plus another recession,

Trump decided to let a bio disease run rampant in the country for political reasons when he could have immediately had the situation dealt with limiting the economic impacts such as inflation and recession fears.




These Republicans are horrible governors of serious matters. Democrats always have to clean the shyt up.

The Democratic primary’s south was dominated by churchgoing black people. We never got to see what Sanders would look like in a general election but he won those working class white people in the 2016 primary. I told you guys the insanity of me doing public interest work at the time and working class white people saw Trump and Sanders as the two good people in the race.

He won’t win them - no Dem will - the question is how do you get back to winnable margins.

Democrats need to talk to their own people. I'm looking at the votes tallied so far and Trump is basically on track to get the same amount of votes as 2020. Meanwhile, Kamala is over 13 million behind Biden.

Clearly, all the centrist/Republican pandering did not work and only alienated the liberal base. Maybe before I die they'll run an unapologetically liberal campaign.

That doesn't mean trannies, open borders and decriminalization of everything. Talk about Medicare for all, fukk Israel, legalize weed while talking up the taxing/funding benefits, statehood for DC and PR, expand the Supreme Court, etc. Something that says, we know you want us to fight for you and this is what we're gonna do.

Also, they need to embrace some masculinity again and stop shaming men for being men.



"Only women, children and dogs are loved unconditionally. A man is only loved under the condition that he provides something." ― Chris Rock

Whether you agree with that or not, I do believe that's how a lot of men feel, especially ones who are down on their luck. :yeshrug:
