What exactly is the democratic party going to stand for in 2026 and 2028?

They are just going to manufacture something fake (like trans rights) and get Russia on it and in 4 years, people will forget this cycle and lap it up again.


If democrats keep insisting that men should play in women's sports, the GOP will have no problems.


I know lots of Democrats and not a single one of them think men should play women's sports. You must live in California or perhaps you need to step out of your bubble and talk to real people.


It doesn’t matter what your friends think. It matters what Democratic politicians do, and they have uniformly voted to support men in women’s sports whenever they have been given the opportunity to vote on the issue, most recently at the national level in March.


So Republicans have chosen to destroy the country because of the Fox News fed version of what democrats are?

Seems smart.


exactly this



Oh B's and you know it. Fox news isn't honest reporting it's a propaganda machine but nice try

Then I guess a lot of democrats are out of sync with their own party platform. Seems a reckoning is needed.


There is no nationwide political agenda to make men playing in women's sports a thing. This forum is dedicated to national politics. If you want to discuss what may be happening on local levels in a few parts of the country, find an online forum specific to those locations. The Dem Party currently has no national leader and therefore no national platform. You and some of your low IQ friends may have been duped into to thinking this men in women's sports thing is part of the national Dem Party platform but anyone with an IQ over 90 knows better.


Their first major coordinated action in Congress post-inauguration (other than holding up little signs when Trump spoke) was to vote to protect men in women’s sports. Obviously it is part of the national goals of the Democratic Party and they obviously care deeply about protecting those trans girls and women who want to play in women’s sports.

Yes, Federal level Dem politicians voted to leave it up to states and local jurisdictions to determine if transgender females can compete in men's sports. Suggesting that permitting transgender females in female sports is part of a national Dem Party platform agenda is as ridiculous as suggesting Oklahoma's absurd abortion laws are a part of a national GOP Party platform agenda. You don't want to go there.

Oh they are very upset and mobilizing to stop Zohran Mamdani. Establishment Dems are talking about kicking him off the ticket, stripping him of his citizenship and deporting him. This is the only thing Democrats and Fox News cares about. With everything else that has happened this is what gets establishment dems to act.

Don’t see the democrats as an answer to Trump and maga.

Lost and out of sight is the most strategically advantageous position to be in for the opposition party when there is a historically unpopular POTUS in office. Dems in 2025 are in the same position they were in 2017 and Republicans were in 2021; just sitting back and watching the elderly unfit POTUS guarantee them future election successes. Sad little game, isn't it?

PP here. Fine. Take this approach to the voters. See how popular this is with the critical swing state voters we need to win.

This thread is so incredibly aggravating because it feels like none of the Democratic partisans here ever want to actually win a national election again. They want to double down on wildly unpopular policies while letting Trump entirely control the narrative, destroy civil liberties, drive educated immigrants that transform our economy out of the country, and balloon the debt. Great job fighting hard for the trans athletes, Dems! I’m sure we will appreciate your singleminded dedication to that issue above all else when Trump has instituted a dictatorship. 🤦

That is a depressingly accurate description of both parties.

The Dem Party got rid of their Biden mistake in 2024. They now have a clean slate with no leader and no national platform. GOP politicians running for election and re-election will be hindered by the Trump mistake through at least January of 2029. I can understand why there aren't many confident and proud Dem loyalists in 2025 but those who understand political science and American history know that Dems will have a political advantage through the 2028 election cycle.

I understand political science but consider this time period to be aberrant, and I think your confidence is unwarranted.

If you understand political science you understood why any Dem nominee with a pulse was going to win in 2020 before it happened and why any GOP nominee with a pulse was going to win in 2024 before it happened. Did you? If not, I can see how you are confused about the direction of the political pendulum through the 2028 election cycle. The vote for change swing voters who determine POTUS elections will be in full swing mode by 2028. This isn't rocket science.

I have correctly predicted the winner of the presidential race the spring/summer before the election for every single election dating back to 2008. I’ve literally never gotten it wrong. I predicted Trump would win in May/June 2016.

And I’m telling you, I do not think this is standard political science. If Medicaid does end up getting slashed deeply in swing states, then yes, we are back to normal cycles. Otherwise, I am not nearly as confident as you are. I don’t think you grasp just how deeply unpopular Democrats are now.

You were doing OK until the last line.

Not PP, but the last line is what lost the last election. So Dems need a different policy on these, or they will lose again.

My platform:
All Trump appointees imprisoned immediately, awaiting trial. No bail, nada until their trials. They are all flight risks.
Trump family imprisoned, awaiting trial on grift and many other crimes they've committed, every single one of them. No bail. Flight risks. The minor kids can get moved into foster care.
Total tax reform: 99% taxes on the income of anyone worth more than a billion dollars. Go down from there, but use Scandanavian countries tax systems as a model. Tax rates are about 45% in those nice, clean, safe countries where there are few homeless people, no one starves, free health care, and lots of rich people who live in lovely homes. Only the rich in Scandanavia aren't megabillionaires superrich like the ghastly people here who have so much money they spend it on gawdawful tacky weddings, outrageously huge yachts and screwing their workers and customers.
Smaller government. Reduce the size of our bloated government so we can balance the budget and still offer all Americans free health care and a universal basic income.
Fossil-fuel free in 20 years, no exceptions. Buhbye Exxon and all the other oil, gas and coal company criminals.
There's more, but that's enough for now.
