In 2016, we warned that Hillary Clinton’s campaign was not resonating with Americans. In 2024, we warned about Kamala Harris, and we were ignored again. Now, the worst has happened. So, what do we do? A leftist analysis can help us chart a path forward.

    And to be red, you have to want to take rights away from women and round up the immigrants.

    Bwaaahahahaha. No.

    To be Red doesn’t mean that. Republicans are just better at logrolling than you Democrats are.

    If your allies are stinky racists, you roll up your sleeves and try to be a good Republican and make new arguments for your side that can drown out the racists. Why? Because allies are needed for power, and working with people you disagree with is more important for the cause than tearing down your allies.

    Democrats need to become more RealPolitik. They need to be less ideal and more self serving if they hope to win elections in the future.
