She didnt win over rightwingers anyway

Gen Z is a generation of infantile incels who refuse to vote for a woman.

42% of them voted for a woman

Progressive left leaning policies are very popular

She said repeatedly toward the end that she would keep people she disagrees with close to her in the white house because she's open minded or something

The militancy of Malcolm X's message played a big part in that. Powerful whites were scared of Malcolm so they decided to work with MLK

I can’t stand idiot liberals who don’t read past headlines and drift with the news wind.

That describes most voters. Either you find a way to reach them or you lose

Progressive policies are actually popular. Universal healthcare is popular, raising the minimum wage is popular. But the Democratic party will only run on half measures that satisfy no one because they are beholden to their corporate funders

What trump does well is saying things that people want to hear. Obama was good at that as well when he first ran. That is what all good candidates do and it's what the dems should do regardless if they learn it from trump or not

This person said in another comment that they hoped the person they were replying to would get graped in a concentration camp.

Whether this person voted for kamala or not that is fascist sentiment and its disgusting

I didn’t want camps.

Implying that you do want them now.

Which makes you a fascist.

You make it seem like you'll be cheering on the nazis as long as they punish people you don't like. Which would make you a fascist.

Your side lost and your throwing a hissy fit instead of figuring out how to do better next time.

What do you think is better? Preventing fascism or doing nothing and watching a fascist get into power?

I think preventing fascism is better which is why I want a popular candidate because that's the best way to prevent fascism

Fixing the environment means pushing back against the profit motive of corporations. You can't fix the climate and stay friendly with big polluters. What the dems are doing are half-measures that will still see our future ruined because they refuse to go against their corporate donors

Did you read the part of my comment where I said I'm NOT a trump voter and that he is NOT better

Medicare for all or universal healthcare is incredibly popular. Peace is also popular.

Which do you think is better? Dems giving people what they want to earn their vote or trump winning?

They pretend better

Because the dnc exists to keep left leaning parties from ever gaining traction in this country

The reason we lost is because people didn’t vote

Do you think the dems should learn anything from this or should they do the same thing again next time and pray the apathetic people change on their own?

If dems want to win they have to find a way to motivate those apathetic people instead of just telling them they are stupid.

What dems should learn is that they need to offer something that clearly improves people's lives. Universal healthcare or Medicare for all would be a great position to run on and 16 years ago I thought the dems were going to move in that direction but now it seems they've given up on the idea.
