God Americans are insufferable. You pillage and murder the world and blame anyone but yourselves. Why don’t you actually do something useful?

The biggest problem with the US is lack of proportional representation. Winner-takes-all elections have led to the inevitable outcome. It's also why in Europe the propagandists are trying to push for the same system whenever they can.

Did the DNC's strategy work? No? Then the Democrats were wrong.

It's their job to convince voters to vote for them. And if they won't take responsibility for failing at their job, then they're on course to do the exact same thing in 2028 and get the exact same results.

It’s their job to convince voters to vote for them

Everytime this topic comes up it reminds me of incels whining no women wants them...

They don't want to change anything, they don't want to compromise, they want a participation trophy for just existing. What's insane is that's been the strategy for the last three presidential elections.

And if they won’t take responsibility for failing at their job, then they’re on course to do the exact same thing in 2028 and get the exact same results.

The new DNC chair has been very vocal about what the problem is, how to fix, and is already running the same playbook that solidified his home state blue.

The DNC is basically the chair, and we just got a much better chair than we've had in decades.

That’s encouraging to hear.

Can you share any links about the strategy changes you think will help?

It’s their job to convince voters to vote for them.

And it's the voters DUTY to inform themselves responsibly and make the best choice for the welfare of their nation. American voters failed to do so.

We can't do anything about that, wagging your finger at voters will not accomplish anything. But we CAN do something about the party itself, the candidate, and the campaign strategy.

Fixating on things we can't change is a way to deflect from having actual productive conversations about things that we can change. It's a way for the DNC to avoid taking responsibility.

The Democrats are made of people. If you believe people can’t change, we’re fucked anyway. Thankfully, I believe you’re wrong.
