Uh oh. The Dems may be missing the point again.

So I stumbled on to these two pieces today:

‘Devastating Political Consequences’: One Error That This Senior Dem Thinks Cost His Party Big
Gavin Newsom Jump-Started a Conversation Democrats Need to Have

Both of them infer that THE BIG problem is the Dems' overemphasis on transgender rights alone. They focus in on that one (1) issue. Yes, this is an important issue and a spectacularly dumb political tactic, but the transgender stuff was only the icing on the cake. The bathrooms, the flamboyant transgender folks reading to young children in class. BUT...

... that was just on top of everything else that created such animosity towards the Left -- the whole PC/Identity Politics thing. The screaming of RACIST and HOMOPHOBE and ISLAMOPHOBE at everything that moved. The deplatforming of conservative speakers on campus. The safe spaces and trigger warnings. The punishment of employees who "offended" the wrong person. The destruction of family businesses because they didn't want to bake a fucking cake. The refusal to allow the American flag on clothing because it "offended" somebody. The "toxic masculinity" and "cultural appropriation" crap. The participation ribbons. On and on and on and on.

Yes, transgender was the straw that broke the camel's back. But it was the FINAL straw, not the ONLY straw. I hope the Dems haven't lost sight of that.

The democrats are targeting Vice President J.D. Vance. They know he could succeed Trump. He is intelligent and viable candidate. Just in the last week. He takes a mini vacation and protestors there which means there are leaks. And then at his home in Ohio. Republicans need to deal with this.

At some point Trump is going to sink Vance so his son can slide into the GOP front runner to replace him.

When you have secret service protection there really isn't any such thing as leaks. They are like the bull in a China shop.

That noted since this isn't really about that, yes this has long been an issue with the Democrats because in the end they are fairly indiscernible with Republicans outside of some social issues.

Arresting potential insurrectionists, bashing skulls and even shooting them would cause the Prog dominated media/entertainer wing of the globalists to gloat and report it in their way for months. Trump picked Vance. Vance as a successor who is only going to improve as gets more experienced. Vance is not Harris. And we see Trump including people in his administration helping him with decisions this time around. Paul Ryan, Jeff Sessions, the war mongers and shills and the rest of the traitors are not there.

A braindead era of Moral Panics, as I have been saying for years now. It will go down like the Salem Witch Trials and the Victorian Chastity Belts. People will be laughing at the Woke for decades. No, centuries.

You nailed it!

The democrat Party has moved completely into "the whole PC/Identity Politics thing. The screaming of RACIST and HOMOPHOBE and ISLAMOPHOBE at everything that moved. The deplatforming of conservative speakers on campus. The safe spaces and trigger warnings. The punishment of employees who "offended" the wrong person. The destruction of family businesses because they didn't want to bake a fucking cake. The refusal to allow the American flag on clothing because it "offended" somebody. The "toxic masculinity" and "cultural appropriation" crap. The participation ribbons. On and on and on and on" lunatic fringe land

You cannot dial that back with "Oppsies, only fooling"

This is the funny part: imagine spending your youth being a pursed-lipped, judgmental, moralizing prude.

A whole generation is just that. Literally in high school and college aged while they yelled at clouds like people in their late years.

It will never NOT be funny to me.
 
About time the Dems realized how badly they 'effed up.......~S~

They could only stay relevant, even competitive by stealing government funds and cheating in elections

You are dead right about politics. But the era transcends politics. They lost the culture.

I am here for every second of it too.

You’d do well to discontinue reading politico. It’s state controlled propaganda but you consuming it, explains your many uninformed opinions.

If a poster posted two links from Fox News thinking they’re meaningful, what might be your response?

The problem is that you need your own country, some place far away. Instead you try to convert us to your version of Islam.
 
As an independent I have no use really for either the democrat cult or the republican cult. But I tend to gravitate towards the republican cult a bit more because for the last ten or so years they have been the saner party.
Yes the democrat cult has been all about including the mentally ill. While they have done their best to sideline women in sports.
But the biggest problem they had was lying about Biden being “sharp as a tack”. Lying about who was in charge. They even lied about being transparent.
Lying about almost everything that was happening. “ does not matter that you spent more on food today, something is wrong with you, inflation is not that high. “Besides you got that great big raise”. You know that one you never saw on your pay check.
Then they ran an Alzheimer patient for a second term. Trying to lie about his debate by saying he had jet lag after a week of being in the area. Then claimed he was sick.
Then suddenly they chose Harris. Not because she had received so many votes in the primary but because she could use the funds.
Then they turned to lying about what a great candidate she was. They began lying about the republican candidate and the VP candidate.
Basically they can not help but lie.
Now they have pulled the stunts at the speech to congress. Where their mental illness was in full display.

I am sure a lot of the democratic cult members will be replying to this with insults and threats but with very little if any real substance. I am sure there will be a lot of but but but Trump. Let me save you the time. I did not consider Trump to be a great candidate but he was better then the democrat choice.

Which as a statement on the state of the country I will note is setting the bar incredibly low.

and yet “pursed lipped, judgmental, moralizing prudes” is exactly what you sound like most of the time

It is but but we had two choices. Low and nonexistent
