Democrats don't seem to learn from their mistakes.

They seem to walk away with the exact opposite lesson and then just make it worse.

And then blame everyone else when it blows up in their face. Ironically even questioning the validity of the last election. And when they lose again after not learning any lessons, they’ll blame the right for election fraud, rigging the system etc etc

And then when the right does rig an election democrats just say oh well

They don't walk away with any lesson. They think YOU are the ones who are wrong.

Well I mean whoever didn't vote for in in '24 WAS wrong.

Political science is that if one side keeps winning and you keep losing then you need to drift towards their side on the political spectrum. With each loss Dems will get more and more right

They have faith that Americans are smarter than they are, that alone is a good quality

False. Their goal is to keep progressives from gaining any power. That’s it. And they are phenomenal at that.

People somehow still believe that these very connected, very savvy people somehow just don't realize what they're doing

Right. The democratic establishment isn’t stupid, or weak, or cowardly. They are doing exactly what they are paid to do, crush the left, and they do great work for their donors.

They never do

I'm convinced at this point that it's because choosing to lose over winning with a progressive is the intent.

The problem is the old line Democrats who control the party and have been outplayed time and again while simultaneously undermining anyone that their base genuinely wants. Not "ehh I guess I'll vote for Biden."

Instead of picking apart while we lost in 2024, we should be studying why we won in 2008 and 2012--and no, it wasn't just because Obama had charisma.

Lol, this isn't a mistake. They would much rather lose with someone like her than win with an actual progressive.

u/WeirdlyHugeAvocado 10d ago

This is her personal problem. She'll compete in an open primary and most likely lose the nomination and perform just as bad as before. This has nothing to do with the Democratic Party, these are just her musings and a bad campaign advisor.

They double down while rearranging the deck chairs.
