    Dems have absolutely been failing to be an effective political party, but good lord I’d rather have the milquetoast incompetency on democratic control of the government than this abaolute shitshow that Republicans have been running for the last… God it’s only been a month and a half since the inauguration.

      Milquetoast incompetence makes them lose elections.

      Them losing elections allows republicans to have a shit show.

      Then the Dems get a modicum of power and do milquetoast incompetence again, and the cycle repeats.

      It’s been this way my entire life.

        That’s because Americans are stupid/hateful, not because the Democrat party is particularly bad.

          The democratic party’s first job is to win elections.

          They are very very bad at that.

            And American voter’s first job is to responsibly inform themselves so they can make informed decisions come election time.

            The Democrat party’s voting history is there for anyone to peruse through. I’ll save you the trouble and inform you that it is FULL of votes in favor of the lower/middle classes.

            If the Democrat party fails to advertise themselves effectively, that voting history is still there, waiting for non-lazy Americans to inform themselves with. If Americans choose not to do that, then they are failing at their civic duty as citizens in a democracy. And now our democracy is in serious jeopardy because of their laziness.

              You win elections with the electorate you have, not the electorate you want.

              Clearly people are not responsibly informed and do not make informed decisions. Democrats need to account for the fact that most Americans are idiots if they want to control anything except a few states and cities.

              There are too few non-lazy Americans for them to rely on them for victory.
