This Recent Development With Dems Only Shows the Extent of Their Sickness

A meeting of state Democratic chairs in Arizona was a whine fest of epic proportion, though no one seemed capable of grasping why Kamala Harris lost in 2024. The liberal bubble, as dense and insane as ever, laughably had liberals thinking that Harris was going to ride into DC with 400 electoral votes. Some of these people had Harris winning Florida. Harris didn’t win a single swing state and got handily trounced by President-elect Donald J. Trump. Outside this echo chamber, everyone knew trouble was ahead; spending a billion dollars and being unable to move the needle meant something was wrong. Outgoing Democratic National Committee Chair Jamie Harrison was adamant that the party should do what they ought to do when it comes to voter outreach: dump the ‘woke’ antics. 

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but the only person who made any sense was Martin O’Malley—yeah, remember him—who said that the Democratic Party only needs to revert to its pro-working class roots. That’s easier said than done—there are no working people within the Democratic Party, at least not in the circles where political strategy is dictated (via Politico): 

At a Hilton hotel outside of Phoenix, where Christmas carols piped into the lobby, state Democratic chairs gathered for their annual winter meeting. They weren’t frantic like they had been after Trump’s first stunning victory. They were exhausted. Even after Trump tapped the likes of Kash Patel and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to staff his government, they still weren’t ready to demonstrate in the streets or tune into liberal networks.
