 The Democrats Need An Autopsy:


 Date line: 2/17/25:

    

   It’s only 30 days in, aka the days of “shock and awe” as #47 bulldozes the government while what’s left of the Democratic party sit around with their fingers up their asses. My question to the party is and might even be the answer, “Who or what are you afraid of?” Basically, you got your proverbial asses kicked by the bully and now you are kowtowering in the corner, awaiting a man/woman in a cape to save you. Wake up, there is no superhero in the wings. Oops, maybe I should have avoided wake, as wokeness helped to beat you.

   Where’s Chuck, where Hakeem, where in the news cycle is any Democrats response to anything???

   For the last ten years, a full decade The Dems have based their entire political strategies in opposing one man. He, that man, aka #45 and now #47 is no longer an aberration, he is the real deal. He is the one who helped the GOP win in nearly every single demographic group. To make matters more dire the GOP have “the trifecta”,the control of the presidency, the House, and the Senate. 

   For the lackluster DEMS two fronts must be confronted at one time, First, #47. If the party line is in opposition of any thing #47 is doing, stand up and confront it. Secondly, and more importantly, what the fuck is the party line? The DEMS need someone to figure out what went wrong  and then normalize, modernize, adapt their policies to the needs of the people, all the people.

   The ELECTION of 2024 is over and the “autopsy” of the Dems should be focused on the midterm election (2026). Now is the time when past mistakes or misdeeds must be punished or paid for; a testing time when the degree of one's success or failure will be revealed.

   The question is “Are the Democrats finally waking up and realizing that woke is broke?” The party needs to find a policy, a platform which will normalize and be more relatable to the Democratic Party faithful, to modernize the party for a new era. Facts are that the GOP won a majority of white women, young men, and remarkable numbers of Black and Latino voters. More people ended up voting for #47, even though many didn’t like him, because they liked the Democratic Party less. Wokeness hurt. Democrats learned the hard way that mothers care both about abortion rights and having their daughters compete fairly and safely on the playing field. The DEMS hyper-political correctness alienated half the country.

   White progressives hold views to the far left such as “racism is built into our society” while many Blacks and Hispanics Americans don’t feel that way as the exit polls showed, believing that “America is the greatest country in the world.” They don’t care about DOGE.

   College kids trashed campuses. Rather than stating that this is unacceptable DEMS worried about alienating one or another cohort in their coalition. So they let it continue and worse, spread.

   Biden aka Milk Toast Joe was a disaster. And to chose Harris as his running mate left little path for any resurrection when it was discovered that Joe had no chance of winning in 2024. Harris was considered as extreme and out of touch. The 2022 midterms should have given a hint that Joe was “one and done”. He should have been given his walking papers at that time, then there would have been time for “a primary campaign that could have produced a different nominee”, a different hopefully more successful path.

   That time has again come today…There will be a tomorrow…
