[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People, people. We all agree that Trump is bad and Democrats are good.   But that doesn’t mean we’re in good shape right now.  We shouldn’t get angry at facts.  A few facts:
1) Voter turnout was not a problem for Biden and Harris.  In 2020, the number of votes cast exceeded 95% of the number of registered  voters.  Crazy but true.  Turnout is not a problem. (Although voter registration might be.)
2) Almost every Demographic shifted away from Democrats and toward Republicans in 2024.
3) The recent protests were, on average, older and whiter than most protests
4) Most Americans oppose illegal immigration, support deportations, and prefer Republican policies on immigration.
5) Most Americans support bans on biological males in girls’ locker rooms, and prefer Republican policies on this issue
6) According to Democratic pollster David Shor, in 2024, most voters trusted Republicans more than Democrats on most of the issues voters considered important.  Notably, the extended Covid response under Biden completely erased Democrats’ previous trust advantage on education and health care.

[b]None of these points are wrong or debatable.[/b]  These are the givens.  The question is, what should we do given the situation we’re in?  Do we want to keep standing on certain unpopular principles even if it hurts us in elections?  Do we want to adopt new policies more popular with voters?  Should we focus on short term anti-Trumpism or long term election planning?  Do we have any good candidates for 2028?  Etc[/quote]

I don’t have the time, this is so laughable! [/quote]
