I think you've hit the nail on the head, as usual. That's why lots of folks like what Jasmine Crockett and Gavin Newsome are doing. More of that, please.
One big problem is John Roberts and the Fascist Five. They do not believe in democracy, and demonstrate it in every major decision. In Shelby County v. Holder they said Congress didn't have enough evidence to justify its decision on voting rights. They created a brand new doctrine called the Dignity of the States to justify this violation of separation of powers. They continued to invent new "doctrines" to tear down the powers of the legislature and the Democratic President. See, e.g., Biden v. Nebraska.
Then these foul bastards created a new doctrine: the Immunity of Donald Trump, in two cases, Trump v. US and Trump v. CASA. In the latter they threw away the powers of the judiciary, making themselves the only judges of the legality of Trump's actions.
Nothing will change while these bastards are in power.
Most excellent. And it feeds into what Gavin Newsom is now doing with the November ballot initiative to temporarily suspend the admirable apolitical redistricting program in California, in response to Texas's corrupt GOP gerrymander. When trump demanded five more rightwing Texas Congressional districts in order to support his fascist presidency, it was not much different from when he called Georgia's Brad Raffensberger on Jan. 2, 2021 to "find 11,780 votes." What Newsom is doing is super, man.
Weird. No mention of how the progressives are the ones who got us here. Dems and Libs are required to vote for them if they win a primary, but they are not required to vote for Dems and Libs who win a primary.
Crap over your core base, neglect it over 4 years of a Presidency to chase voters who rejected you again, and it won’t bail you out is what happened…and even less Republicans than ever voted for Harris, 5%, Biden got 6% in 20 and Clinton 7% in 16.
Keep chasing after people who won’t vote for you instead of those who will and have if you listen to them and do what’s right morally, though, it went over so well in 2024 after all…
The opposite is the reality, Dems have not heeded their own nonwhite base enough or their Left flank which even includes moderates/centrists now forget progressives as the establishment wing is Right of center and W Bush era Republicans on policy save abortion…here we are.
The strategy of being affluent, white, and performative wokesters alienates more voters from Dems than it gains with anyone else…thus must change by 2026, Newsom and the TX House Democrats of those elected are giving us a blueprint on the method to do so rightly.

Once we accept that the Democrats are the conservative party, everything makes much more sense.
I agree with every word of this.

Couldn’t agree more. Bring a gun to the gunfight for goodness sake.

Opposite, that applies to the center Right.

Yes!
What do you think of the knee jerk reaction to every social media post of Hakeem Jeffries demanding he endorse Mamdani for NYC Mayor?
