I'd rather just wait for them to die off, thanks.

"Hey Guys, let's start targeting racists and bigots!" isn't a valid response to a loss of 3% due to turnout.

The democrats are in much worse shape than they were in 2009 and soon will be worse than they were in 2012 despite Millianials and gen z having far more influence now .


Also lol at blaming the loss at turnout given Terry won more votes than Northam did 4 years ago lol . You can’t compare an presidential year to non presidential one directly as there are Millions of people who only do care about the presidential race

Due to glaring democratic deficiencies in our system and your party effectively pursuing authoritarian and anti-democratic means to cement the rule of the minority? Sure. Don't act like the majority of this country supports you -- y'all haven't had a President who won the popular vote in his first term since 1988, LOL.

You are correct about comparing Presidential and Off-Year elections. I mean; the fact is that the more people who vote, the more Democrats (usually) win. It's undeniable that minority and youth vote dropping drastically had a big impact.

Lol if elections were based on the popular vote , the nature of the campaigns themselves would change lol  . Also you are once again wrong about turnout and 2004, 2016, and 2020 should have disproved that point . Turnout massively  went up in 2004 and it benefited Bush , turnout increased from 2012 to 2016 and it benefited Trump and in 2020 turnout massively increased and it literally had basically no effect as 2020 was basically 2016 if most third party voters voted democratic .Also keeping in mind that T-Mac won more votes than Northam did yet he lost while Northam easily won .


Also if you are complaining about senate allocation , the fact is it’s not gonna change so you better appeal to the voters the OP is talking about or you will be in the permanent minority in that chamber

 You know, it's completely insufferable of you, even more than usual, to yammer on and post after post over the last several days about how democrats need to change blah blah blah. Whereas the ugly little reality little friend, is the American public overwhelmingly hate hates hates your economic policy-you're meaning yours personally as well as it captured by your party, of domestic spending cuts yeah and tax cuts for high earners . The American people also want environmental regulation, but unfortunately a substantial percentage can be gold in the thinking that the green new deal Will ban plain travel, et cetera.

If you want to worry about a party that needs to Improve its image and standing with the American people, jettison all your extremely unpopular right wing economic policies that you particularly fetishize over. Till then kindly drink a big glass of STFU juice, reboot yourself, or whatever it takes to quit being such an annoying twit.

Uh... have you guys seen the media/pundit coverage of the reaction to last week? It's basically, ugh Glenn Youngkin won because people are so racist and they're so stupid they fell for anti-CRT talking points which "isn't real". Oh and anybody who voted for Winsome Sears is a white supremacist. The same people who voted for Biden and then Youngkin, are just as racist as your base Republicans, just like how Obama Trump voters became disposable after 2016. As soon as they vote R, they become bad people.

You saw a little bit of this last year too, before Biden ended up winning in the days following. "Is this who we are?" Joy Reid asked on election night 2020, stunned at how close the result was. Of course, in a good, moral nation that Joy Reid approves of, the result would never even be close. Everyone would just agree with her and vote for the only party that is good and decent, the Democrats.

They are not going to change anytime soon. They are doubling down on everything. It exemplifies why they lost in the first place. They have a condescending moral superiority complex that they cannot get rid of. No trends are reversing any time soon.

 Is welcome a yes, in any good and just world trump would have never been elected and 2020 would have been a blowout.. Unfortunately there are some very very stupid voters constituting abyet Buddha's constituting about 45% of this country who get an unfair is there inflated  Is borderline political majority via is the senate allocation towards underpopulated rural States, if rural States, the electoral college, and Jerry mander. Not sure what the issue here is.

I take that back. The Republican party is awful. It's just a question of what democrats need to do to win. Answer is answer, harp on economic issues all day
