Rx for the Democrats

[SweetSue92]

This is getting a little fucking silly. Now, everywhere I look, I see article titles like "Dems Searching for Answers After Electoral Catastrophe"

Really?

This should be very easy. Now that the party is lying in a steaming puddle of goo, it has nowhere to go but up. And all it will take is two (2) steps:

Step One
Drop the whole destructive Political Correctness/Identity Politics fiasco NOW. Stop dividing Americans into little pieces and pitting them against each other. Stop screaming and intimidating and punishing people for saying what they think. Stop ruining family businesses for refusing to bake a fucking CAKE. Stop deplatforming conservative voices on college campuses. Stop pretending there are 58 (or whatever the number is now) genders. Stop having flamboyant transsexuals read books to parents' young children in class. Apologize for terms like "Toxic Masculinity" and "Cultural Appropriation". You blew it. This was stupid from the start. Fucking DROP IT.

Step Two
Focus like a fucking laser beam on the Middle Class (assuming it isn't too late, and it may be). No, not the Black Middle Class or the Brown Middle Class or the Purple Middle Class or the Gay Middle Class. The AMERICAN MIddle Class. Drop the fucking hyphenations. Come up with some NEW IDEAS that fit a rapidly changing and more competitive global economy. Modify and streamline existing ideas like Unions, Vocational Schools and Retirement Plans. I swear it wouldn't be that difficult.

Anyone who was here before 2016 knows that I was considered evil by the LEFTIES here because I was screaming this every fucking day. I had "Political Correctness Derangement Syndrome". I was called every name in the book and squabbled with every lefty on the board over it. Turns out I was right.

Shell-Shocked Democrats Stumbling For Answers After Loss To Donald Trump

The finger-pointing among Democrats intensified Thursday, with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) accusing the party of abandoning the working class.

This is how it's going:

Leftie women are cutting their hair on social media, for "4B". That's where they don't have sex with, marry, interact with, or have children with men--to fight the patriarchy or something.

Big universities are telling students they can take mental health time off due to the election.

Travis Kelce--a professional football player--posted about football yesterday and was destroyed because "read the room" and "it's too soon".

The entire time you were howling about the Trump cult you missed the REAL cult. A few MAGAs rioted on Jan 6th, and that was bad. These people are completely unmoored. Like their lives are ruined.

THIS is what happens when you make politics your religion--and encourage it. THIS is the stew the Democrats are in. You are asking them to deconvert.

Sorry you missed it, Mac, but you really, really missed it.

More so. Harris was the best available argument for voting Trump. Some of us voted "other" anyway.

Yeah, there were no good choices, again.

And now, if the Democrats don't get their shit together, the GQP won't need to either.

 

[GMCGeneral]

They have to ditch Marxism, just like Russia did in 1991.
Start with THAT.

Unfortunately, Russia is reembracing it again.

Link?
I doubt that very much.

As much as I completely agree with the idea PC undoubtedly hurt Dem's in this and previous elections, and need to do something about it, Harris would be the prez elect if not for misdirected frustration with inflation.

I think that's very true too. The Dems were going to be blamed for that no matter what, even though it was inevitable. I'd just like to see the Dems get back to their foundation, and stop alienating so much of the country.

 

[Billiejeens]

The "other" voters are non participating free loaders.

 

[Billiejeens]

The democrat party is a coalition of weird people, such as transgenders and pro palestine radicals

And the occasional economic socialist like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren

2024 with Kamala Harris was a genuine expression of who and what modern democrats are

It cannot disavow its core principals overnight

Nor does it have to

Democrats are weird because a huge swath of America is weird

Like it or not there will be a comeback on the left along with future democrat victories

Until the Democrat Media is broken up they, unfortunately will remain viable.

 

[Mac-7]

Yes, and in a country like ours that values free speech they should have the right to be wrong

 

[Billiejeens]

That would work but then America wouldn't fall and destroying the country as we know it is their goal.

That only started occurring during the Obama Administration.
If The Democrats want to fix their party they have to reject the Obama agenda.

If you can't express your opinion without using the "F" word in every paragraph, kindly move your thread to badlands.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

They'll do none of what the OP said. They're tone deaf idiots. All they keep screaming about is racism, trannies, abortion and orange man bad. Losers.

Except you voted for Kamala. Keep it up, Capt Clueless!

The D's definitely need to move toward the center if they are going to return to relevancy.

Abandoning some of their stupidity like Draconian gun control, Gay Marriage and transitioning for minors would be a great first step.

Obama runs the Democrats now. Until that changes, they will not.
I betcha trannies reading queer books to toddlers at public libraries stops.

I guess you've been asleep for the past 20 or so years. Racism, hatred, violence, and totalitarianism IS the foundation of your party now.
