I mean, yeah, I guess you should. But it’s a little late, now that you managed to LOSE THE WORKING CLASS!

Lol. Dems are funny.


We've already had 39k layoffs in tech this year (source TrueUp). Now we are facing more from IBM and others.

But we need 85k more H-1B visas?

We need more OPT STEM visas for foreign STEM grads?

Employers needs to sponsor more Green Cards?

Based on what data? NONE!!!!!!! The data tells us we should be doing the opposite.

American Tech Workers have been replaced. 11 Million American STEM grads are not working in STEM.

When will Democrats support US workers first?


Maybe when US workers learn to work hard? But they prefer gig jobs like door dash and uber.


Wow. Hirer cheap labor because US workers don’t work hard. Any democrats wonder why they lost the working class


I thought Elon actually came out in support of foreign workers because he said Americans were too dumb for high tech jobs

I almost wish we had a parliamentary system right now, a dozen parties and coalitions forming and reforming.


Dems should do nothing. Everything they touch becomes a disaster. Great job on the open border, making the military woke, no-cash bail, you can steal up to $1000, drag shows for third graders, men in women’s sports, enabling antisemitism on campuses, high school graduates who can’t read, & $4/gal gas!

They are winsome and make people feel good about the future.


And who are these people out there clamoring about how we need some straight, white, “manly man” to lead the Democratic party?

Tim Walz IS that man! I don’t get why people can’t see the obvious.

We need a campaign to normalize migrants and trans folks. Stupid racists fear people who are different. We need to teach them that people are the same

LEGAL migrants of course ARE normal AND welcome, PP. You ALREADY know that, don’t you?

You bigots need to stop your attacks on regular people just trying to feed their families.


No human being is illegal.

There is no reset button. It's called tacking to the center. Bill Clinton did it in the 1990s and had a very successful 2nd term.

If anything, the last election has taught us that as a block, the voters have no memory.

Control social media, control the USA. Russia has divided us through troll farms.


We better hope the voters have no memories! Because it would really help us if they would forget all about how we’ve acted for the past 10 years.

Dems are over. The next time the Republicans lose the White House, it will be to a new party with a new name.

(4) Democrats should drop the boys playing in girls sports, dressing in bathrooms, etc.
(5) Democrats need to have strong foreign policies. They're viewed as weak by the world. And our enemies took advantage of it.
(6) Democrats should follow the Republican lead on cutting government waste and fraud. We're $37 Trillion in debt for pete's sake. This is a national security issue. We're paying over $1 Trillion in interest on this debt a year. Something has to give. We can't lose the world reserve currency status.
(7) Democrats should stop taxing the crap out of Americans.
(8) Democrats should become more business friendly.
(9) Democrats should push personal responsibility and not "the government will take care of everything for you" policies. Less government.
(10) Democrats should stop the "we're against Trump on everything".
(11) Democrats should stop the "nazis", "attack on Democracy", blah, blah blah. It's a bunch of BS and no one buys it.
(12) Democrats need to back our sovereign borders and legal immigration. Get rid of birthright citizenship. That was for a different time. No more anchor babies. Stop free healthcare of illegals.
(13) Democrats need to find a more moderate leader that's not based on what race, sex, sexuality, ethnicity, etc they are.
(14) Democrats need to stop politicizing government agencies such as the DoJ or IRS for instance.
(15) Democrats need to stop listening to James Carville.


Excellent list!


not really, it does not address the number 2 issue with Democrats in last election, there push to expand overwhelming immigration. immigration is good for corporations and rich elites, but is bad for US workers. How can the party of labor claim they support US workers and simultaneously push for expanding immigration.

Liberal professionals look upon nationalism with unmitigated horror, because all they see is the racist aspect. What they’re missing is how nationalism is a reaction to the detrimental impacts of globalization. Two-thirds of working-class Whites and three- quarters of Trump primary voters see trade deals as harmful to American workers, and there’s plenty of evidence that they’re right (and that foreign laborers are being exploited in the bargain as well). When Trump tells them he will bring back their jobs by shredding unpopular trade and climate deals, that sounds pretty damn good.

After NAFTA passed, the president of the electrical workers’ union vowed revenge: “Clinton screwed us and we won’t forget it.” Twenty-four years and a few dozen Trump anti-NAFTA jeremiads later, rank-and-file electrical union members welcomed Trump to their Philadelphia job site. Minnesota iron and steel workers, too, say they’ve never forgiven President Clinton for NAFTA and that Trump won them over with his outspoken commitment to killing the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Trade deals, they say, are their No. 1 issue and the reason the once-solidly blue North Star state is turning red.

Democratic Party politicians should transition to the opposite sex. It’s the only way to break through in a crowded media landscape. They can’t just talk abiut gender affirming care. They have to get it, live it, flaunt it for their constituents. Trans folks want representation. They want leaders who look like them.
