“To all those growing skeptical of this party’s strategies and overall agenda, let me just say we hear you loud and clear. Rest assured we will be doing everything short of interpreting that sound into words and responding to those words in any way shape or form.”

The best line in the whole article

sounds a lot like the same thing they said in 2016 and now that we know that they’re doubling down on their stubbornness here and in other examples; we should expect a repeat of 2016 & 2024 in 2028.

I think after 4 years of Trump, if there are still elections in 2028, we’ll see a Democrat elected president simply because of the fact that how bad it is under Trump will be right in people’s faces. In 2032, however, we’ll definitely see the Dems lose to somebody even worse than Trump for exactly why they lost in 2016 and 2024.

The Dems don’t learn anything and lose, then 4 years later they win because the Republicans made things worse, and then they learn nothing, double down, and lose again, starting the cycle all over again.

This is how it goes. People are uninformed when it comes to politics and generally stupid as fuck. Biden dealt with Trump’s terrible policies and the aftermath of the pandemic. Prices went up. Biden bad. Elect Trump. Unimaginable terror but good economy. Elect Trump’s kid or some other dipshit. Economy goes to shit in a way fucksticks can understand. But now it’s too late.

Democrats: “Moving right a little didn’t work this time. Next time let’s try moving a little more to the right.”

“Clearly we didn’t move right far enough. We should have moved right further. It is what the voter wanted”.

This is a satirical source. Haven’t seen one comment that didn’t take it seriously.

Bernie Sanders reflected on it stating that it was the Democrats failing the working class that won Trump the election, and people in the Democratic Party denounced him for it.

They already learned nothing from 2016. If they didn’t learn before why would you believe they’ve learned this time. It’s a situation where satire runs too close to reality so of course people take it seriously. In fact the “she didn’t get elected because she’s black/woman” reasoning already shows they don’t plan to learn from this time either. The answer to dems losing isn’t “we weren’t racist/sexist enough”.
