This is just the first convenient target for libs to vent their frustration on. We'll see a few more before the self flagellation resumes in earnest.

Ah, here we go, we found a minority group to blame for the election outcome in 3 days. Anyone want to place bets on the next group?

Faces will be cheap though, there are plenty of those to go around for the next few years

That's the part the DNC doesn't get. Every single successful campaign since 2000 has run on a change and reform platform. This time they ran with "we'll continue business as usual" and it's absolutely no surprise they were crushed.

(Edit. Seriously, listen to Kamala on The View when asked what she'd do differently to improve the economy. Her response was that they're very proud of Bidenomics and nothing would fundamentally change.)

Voters want reform so that 95% of the profit from the economy doesn't go to Wall St. Voters want public spending on things that make everyone's daily lives better. Better roads, more reliable electrical grids, bridges that aren't falling apart, downtowns with actual businesses that aren't corporate franchises, houses that they can afford. Reboot the CCC and offer jobs building those things, offer jobs that pay enough for people to move out of their parent's houses and start their own lives, offer to crack down on corporate profiteering, offer labor something other than "we're less bad than the Republicans are." Offer to bootstrap small and medium businesses, talk about kick-starting American manufacturing, talk about the jobs you'll create and the spending you'll do making lives better for everyone rather than just the corporate profiteers.

We already know that neoliberalism works for Wall St, voters are waiting to hear about what works for them too. Make that the core of your campaign if you want to win the popularity contest.

And laptops, and phones, and literally every other electronic thing you might want to buy

You mean we shouldn't build the torment Nexus from the best selling dystopian book Don't build the torment Nexus?

The liberals will do what they always do: blame the American people. They love America, at least technically. They love the theory of America, the concept of America, the mechanisms, but they hate Americans. They can't stand the troglodytic unwashed, uncouth, irreverent, ignorant masses.

I think it's more accurate to say that they love American profits, personally.

If they loved America or the American people they would have done more than the bare minimum for the middle and lower classes over the last 25y.

Or we could just get the neolibs out of the core of the Democratic party. They've been more concerned with corporate donor profits than the welfare of the working class since the 90s.

Ah, we're still in the blame everyone phase of the defeat aren't we.

Usually when you lose a popularity contest the thing to do is ask what the other side did better, not blame everyone else for being wrong.

I voted for Harris. Biden and Clinton 2 - at the time they were the least bad option of the two presented. That wasn't enough for a lot of people and we should probably start trying to understand why.

I feel attacked every time I hear this one.
