Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Ruin Democratic Party’s Trump Resistance | Observer

As long as the Clintons are allowed the spotlight, they won't be able to turn a new page and bring middle class voters back to their party.

Jim Webb: Democratic Party Has Moved "Very Far To The Left" | Video | RealClearPolitics

Since the election of 2016, the party has moved too far to the left and away centrist policies.

Columbia Professor Says Democrats Need To Move Beyond Identity Politics : NPR

Democrats are constantly playing the PC game instead of focusing on real issues such as fixing income inequalities and the tax code.

If the party doesn't reorganizes itself and rebrand. 2018 elections will be a moment of truth.

Democrats are saying they have nothing to worry about or change because Trump is guaranteed to be a bad president and probably get impeached



Are they right ? Is this a good tactic?

Nice deflection. Democrats are on the sidelines, we've got popcorn watching the Trump White House becoming a train wreck.

Naw, your parties continued drive even further to the Left will ensure that the 42% of us who are Independents aren't just going to jump on your band wagon, even if Trump turns out to be whacked.

The only states that the Democrats appeal to are coastal and minority heavy states and there are only less than a dozen of them. Hillary carried most of them in the election.

While the liberal media has not carried any of the Trump's successes so far, because he's bringing jobs to middle of America. Months from now once those companies and hiring are in full swing Trump's popularity will soar.

Public opinions will change, not everyone believes in 1/2 the opinions on the news these days. Paycheck and taxes will be the report card on Trump.

Don't pat yourselves on the back too hard just yet. What happened in this election is that a lot of Democrats had become complacent. We looked at the candidate your side put up and scoffed at the possibility that he could ever win any election. We discounted how many of you were sour about something going on and that you would vote for the Devil just to spite Washington. So tons of us did not even vote..........that was our mistake.

But, after seeing the uprising that has happened since Trump won, you can bet your bottom dollar a whole bunch of people will be turning out at the polls next time, and also in 2018. All these protests will result in lots of people actively recruiting new voters and voters who simply did not show up in 2016.

Yes, the Democratic party learned some lessons, and will improve because of it. But for you to claim they are imploding is simply wishful thinking and a lack of reality.

what are Democrats planning to run on? Open borders? Funding sanctuary cities? Transgender bathrooms? Telling white people to "Shut up"?
