    No, the reason trump won was because democrats ran a shit campaign. The party needs to stop blaming everyone but themselves when their garbage candidate fails to motivate voters. If you haven’t noticed, things were already not great before trump entered office and when people hear “but things will get even worse!!” they don’t care because they feel it’s already bad enough as is that it doesn’t matter. They want significant tangible improvement, not “at least we’re not the other guy”.

        That’s the thing, republicans will pull all the stops to get what they want when they have power and block democrats when they don’t. Republicans actually fight. Democrats just let things happen, always claiming that their hands are tied (republican hands are never tied, apparently) and on top of that, democrat leaders will claim “we need a strong republican party” and espouse bipartisanship (you know, with the nazi republican party). I, and I’m sure many others, would love a party that actually fights for them.
