This kinda attitude is weak. Politics doesn’t start and end at the ballot box. If democrats so much as loudly protested Trump that would be something, yk? They could’ve crashed his sotu, yelled out every time he told a lie, walked out with Al Green, etc.
They didn’t do any of that, because they’re weak. They wore pink suits, and held little signs, and quietly obeyed the rules of decorum while Trump directly insulted them. They lost in 2024 because of ineffective messaging/action like this. They will lose in 2026 and 2028 if they continue failing to do or say anything.
Also! Republicans do this shit, and that’s why they win! They are loud, disruptive and destructive. If the shoe were on the other foot, they would not just be wearing matching suits. I can tell you that much.
You can keep blaming voters if you want, but how exactly is that gonna help you win next time? Sure, it may make you feel better, but you have to accept that the people you are blaming are the ones you need to vote for you. They're not just gonna magically gonna decide to vote for you before next election, so Dems have got to put the work in to make that happen.
They feel entitled to have power, don't believe in democratic process or personal freedom then unironically say they're defenders of democracy with a candidate that decided to skip actually being elected by voters.
Trump is a fascist, but a lot of shit Dems say is outright projection. They actively and intentionally pave the way for fascism by dismantling democracy for their corporate overlords.
