Nuthin' but the truth
Interesting article....I think he's right, we are dealing with the stages of grief with dems....Right now they are in denial....Trump’s landslide proved that Democrats are not now and never have been aligned with normal Americans’ value systems. Their whole groupthink support system, which runs on pure emotion and feelings and not logic, just took a major hit, and their cognitive dissonance is spiritually crushing them.
To recover meaningfulness, the party must go through the five stages of grief, a mandatory process to regain sanity and focus on the future. It is doubly important for many in the party because the secular world is all they have, and to have lost the election to (in their view) evil, uneducated morons has caused profound bleakness and despair.
At this grief stage, Democrats are blaming everyone but themselves. While blame for this loss must include their fellow travelers on the left who hijacked the party and are the major cause of this complete collapse due to radical policies that normal Americans found distasteful (e.g., DEI, identity politics, boys in girls’ sports, etc.), they must stop blaming normal Americans if they are to accept the true reasons they lost. It’s the Democrats’ Turn in the Wilderness
In any case, worth the read....
