Democratic Party leaders want the benefits of an engaged activist base like the one currently challenging Donald Trump without actually having to listen to or engage with it.
Only by sheer nostalgia or ‘anyone but ®Name’ campaigns. I don’t know that the democrats have actually fought for the people in a long while, but at least Obama tried to get healthcare enshrined.
Democrats have won the majority of presidential elections since the 90s…
And only one since Obama, where they decisively shifted against progressivism.
And lost congress and a ton of states in the same time.
And that majority is a majority of one, and both were two term presidents who were hamstrung by Republican Congresses.
So I stand by my assertion that democrats can’t win elections. Not enough to matter anyway.
Only by sheer nostalgia or ‘anyone but ®Name’ campaigns. I don’t know that the democrats have actually fought for the people in a long while, but at least Obama tried to get healthcare enshrined.
