    DNC may have a good point that the last few elections saw big wins for them because their only strategy was to be AntiTrump.

    With what has happened with Iran and the latest actions of AIPAC I’m thinking that strategy might have mixed results.

    Ultimately getting Trump and his goons out of office will probably be top of voters minds on the larger national scale.

    Guess we will see next election. Who know maybe gas prices will dip on election day and all the bird brains will praise Trump for it and vote for him again.

      Do you mean the DNC or individual campaigns? Because as a party Democratic campaigns, especially in orimaries, are not monolithic. Some get leadership or dccc or dsc support, but they are mostly independent.

      The last major thing that the DNC was responsible for was Harris.

      Guess we will see next election.

      I mean we’re having elections all the time, and trends are very very clear. Trump is extremely unpopular but so is DNC leadership. Schumer and Jefferies are basically persona non grata when it comes to endorsements. Deep Trump districts are handing back 15+ points but only if there is an authentic candidate to vote for. But the civil war within the DNC is real. Leadership doesn’t want to hand back power and would happily sabotage races to get to pick the loser.

      Maybe you just don’t follow politics or elections? But we have elections every couple weeks. It’s an ongoing assessment.

      You’re ten months behind…

      That’s the DNC chair saying “not trump” isn’t enough and we need candidates like Mamdani in both policy and charisma…

      Shits a lot better than billionaires tell you it is.
