Why would yhe DNC run candidates for a base that didnt show up? Even if they would do better, and I think they would, what makes you think that what the dullards at the DNC will think
As opposed to tailoring all of their messaging and policy to appeal to “moderate” republicans, who voted Trump anyway, just like what happened in 2022 and 2016 and 2010?
The base shows up when you do what we want. Republicans do not show up and vote dem when you do what they want.
The point of left policy is that it directly helps everyone, except for the billionaires and corporations. Hell even republicans can be reached with free healthcare in a way that the democrats trying to be diet-fascists can’t.
You and I see that, but does the DNC see jt? Cuz staying home sure doesnt seem to be driving the message
Staying home isn’t a tactic, it’s the expected, predictable effect of the DNC’s actions, telling the “vote blue no matter who” crowd to shut the fuck up so the DNC can’t delude themselves into thinking they have a path to victory that doesn’t consist of “promise progressive policy, then use every single means at your disposal to enact an uncompromised universal version of it, even if it violates norms, courts, or any other bullshit we see republicans use”.
