    Its good to mock those couple hundred people anyway, but to blame them for it is scapegoating. They’re obviously kind of dumb but yeah like Joe Biden running for re-election is like probably the #1 dick that Democrats tripped over. Campaigning with abysmally unpopular Cheneys, buying ads on republican media instead of knocking on doors or spending money on dem neutral media, focusing too much on trump instead of on strengths, moving right on immigration all contributed.

    2024 was nothing less than a strategic clusterfuck.

    Dems should run primaries even when they’re running for re-election. Its free coverage and right wing media has to address it.

      They stopped running primaries because they almost lost control of the party to Bernie Sanders in 2016.

      The DNC will never make that mistake again. It made their doners very upset.
