Before you shrug this question... Article from the liberal Washington Post suggests democrats desperately need to try a different approach or else continue to get trounced in elections.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.572e8ce3841d

The post says if democrats don't change their platform and methods, they will have to get used to losing in most red states which are growing based on the last Trump win.

Wow. Big message. Let's see if we see any changes..

Perez is a great choice because he loves to offshore American jobs. Perez ignores fixing schools in the inner cities, and ignores the poor American children so he can focus on protecting illegal immigrants.

Can we blame Obama for setting up the country for a Republican win in 2016?
Or should we blame the Dems for putting Hillary the crooked one up?

Either way there were buckets and baskets of Deplorables that did not like the way the country was being led and they "The People" turned out in force.

Yesterday I spoke with a woman that was in her words 110% for Trump and she loves what he is doing. She also stated that she has lost friends over politics and she has a hard core Dem friend who has been losing weight because she still has trouble eating since Trump won.
I have also lost "friends" and know people who admitted that they were physically ill the night of the election to the point where they thought they might have to go the emergency room.

These are the Dems that I know and after 8 years of Democratic dominance of the country and decades of Democratic rule in our state of Massachusetts it is very hard for them to admit that their party is imploding and losing.


With what we have been seeing from the Left and their tantrums over Trump I wouldn't be surprised if they lost even more in the midterm elections.

The People are sick of it.

Both parties have won and lost elections over the years. Dems had house Senate and exec for years. Obama came in on a Dem wave after Bush. So don't get too cozy. Lol

I love how Democrats are putting up mastermind Rahm Emmanuel to speak for the party and then they wonder why they are losing.

With Rahm Emmanuel, Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters and Chuck Schumer the lead spokespeople for the party why wouldn't it lose election after election.

Democrats though are getting more and more elitest, liberal, arrogant and pretentious by the day. The lost it all yet they are so smug and pretentious.

Democrats really think that by trashing middle-America and the south that they can win elections nationally. Sorry, but the swing states of the last decade are the ones the elitest, liberal, globalist party trashes all the time.

Are they really that out of touch that by pandering to the coastal elite and trashing middle-America and it's values that they can win elections?

The Republicans will continue to win because the states that represent more then 270 electoral votes don't want a globalist, sanctuary, elitest and smug party like the Democrats are advocating.

People in Ohio, Michigan, Florida and Texas overall don't have San Francisco Pelosi, South-Central LA Waters or Emmanuel values.
