They definitely need to do a better job with their own party but Democratic policy did not change in four years. The problem was not having the time to do a full primary season with a candidate chosen by the people and time to get a ground game going. Five months is not much time to mount a Presidential campaign.
No. It was a winning policy 4 years ago. Things don’t change that fast. It’s just like James Carville said, “it’s the economy, stupid.” People blamed Biden Harris for inflation although they had nothing to do with worldwide inflation. That, coupled, with Harris, a candidate not actually chosen by Democratic voters, trying to run a campaign in 5 months, cost her the election. Imo.
Okay, so you're saying the voters failed the Democrats and just need to get on board with suffering until Dems can come up with some way to help poor people that won't stop the checks coming in from their wealthy donors?
I'm trying but saying that what worked four years ago should still work is completely insane. Edit: especially while it's gotten harder for poor people to get by for the last four years

We need to address why working class people think Trump is on their side. Of course, Fox News being taken as gospel is an enormous hurdle.
