After the absolute s*** show the Republican sent us through over the last 4 years and especially the last year, it shouldn't be that f****** hard to maintain some momentum

Is It tho?

After bush there shouldn't have been a republican president for atleast two cycles, the fact that Trump even got elected is proof enough of how utterly shit the DNC is at holding any advantage.

"DNC" is not a shortened form of the Democratic Party. It is a very specific part of the party apparatus. It'd be like calling the Republicans the RNC

Granted, I've been a republican far longer than I've been independent, but holy s*** no wonder all my Democrat friends bitched about their party's tendency to self-immolate.

In 2020, Democrats didn't get a mandate for the kind of broad change they're attempting. Plus, their ideas are actually not as popular as they think. They should've gotten all Democrats on the same page before announcing an ambitious program that had to be scaled way back. Now they look like fools.

They also couldn't commit on investigating and a prosecuting January 6th to the extent that they should have. And because of that, they wasted a lot of time without accomplishing anything. They come across as incapable of accomplishing anything meaningful.

Even though their ardent refusal to take covid-19 seriously collapsed to the economy far more than this ever would.

Most politicians don't actually care. They'll be for supporting "the people" in public and then go take bribes in private.

Democrats probably sandbag at their job on purpose.

It's not about playing dirty: conservative media is (and is funded by people who are) dedicated to helping conservatives win power. They'll amplify whatever front of the culture war the party wants to play up that day, and they'll spend the off time reminding you of the evils of estate taxes. Democrats have to deliver their message through media outlets that, whatever their ideological leanings, have other priorities. Whatever good was in the Biden bill, CNN and MSNBC's coverage has focused on its price tag and the backroom wrangling.

Democrats will never, ever beat Republicans at their own game; they will sacrifice their spot on the high road only to realize too late that Republicans have monopolized every filthy inch of the low road. Even the slightest flinch or crisis of conscious will give Republicans the opportunity to go for the throat, and in our reality there's sadly no Lion-Turtle to bail out the Dems in those moments.

The only good take away from yesterday is that maybe it will wake some of them up. They are going to get killed in the mid terms if they dont change their messaging.

They have to stop being the anti-Trump party and start actually getting things done.

It sounds like TMac primarily ran on "Trump is bad"(while Youngkin held him at arms-length) and had a horrible gaffe in the last debate that played right into Republican scaremongering on CRT, where he suggested that parents should not have much input on school curriculum out loud.

Conversely, it doesn't sound like he did much to highlight what the Dem trifecta did or what he, personally, would do to help Virginia and Virginians.

A little welfare like what is mentioned in the pic is fine and won't collapse anything. (and honestly should of been done a long time ago) What's not OK is the trillions and trillions they're trying to get passed most of which never benefits we the people, just corrupt fake organizations and handing the money to friends and other entities where we get like... 20% or less? That will absolutely cripple the whole cash system if they do trillion after trillion like it's play money.

Seriously the Democratic trifecta in VA did great things the last 4 years and TMac did absolutely nothing to tie himself to it

Just yammered about Trump

I live no where near Virginia so I only heard a little bit, but wasn't one of McAuliffe's strategies to tie Youngkin to Trump despite Youngkin doing his best to distance himself from Trump? If that's the case, they need to realize the boogeyman isn't your get out of jail free card. You need to be more than just anti-Trump, especially if you aren't facing a person who is a Trump lackey.

That's because the evil piece of shit won't do a damn thing to help us. All he can do is attack his opponent with lies and distractions.

People on the left and right are happy with the results and I hope it's the start of unity and common sense policies. No more divide, hatred, and all the bullshit that I'm sick of.
