I just don’t think “Democrats” care. They have a real, “We’ll get’em next time” attitude despite losing ground. They are going to have shocked pikachu faces after they’ve been rendered out of existence by Republican policies and America will be left holding the bag (filled with shit).
The democrats won in 2018, 2020, functionally so in 2022, and like 85% of all special elections in between. What you are alleging isn’t even what the article is talking about. Did you read it?
They barely squeaked by in 2022. And in the meantime, several GOP states have been hard at work with setting laws that make flipping those states next to impossible with little to no recourse and accountability for shady incidents.
“Barely squeaked by”? It should’ve been a blow out for the GOP and they barely took the house and lost a senate seat.
Yes, and rude. The fantasy that everyone has the best intentions despite their political leanings. Or even if their opponents aren’t noble, the democrats are.
But I don’t think D politicians actually think that way or care. If there are any that do, they are independents running as D.
Ok…but now you’re actually talking about the article, whereas your previous comment was (incorrect) about electoral victories, which is not what it was about. So no it wasn’t rude, it was bizarre that you went that route and I wasn’t sure why. So sure I could’ve maybe been a little “gentler” about it but let’s not clutch pearls here and play dumb.
It’s a game for them, it is for almost everyone at the top, they don’t actually understand what’s at stake, and some don’t care. Most of them are rich, old, and privileged. All the things that we care about don’t even apply to them, they’re fine either way. The only difference is the donors pay them to be more left leaning.
Traditional democrats roll over and play dead if they don’t like something or get so pedantic about shit they might as well be doing to same thing. Traditional repubs blindly toe the line, do as they’re told, and vehemently defend the orders given. Neither is a good strategy.
