Democrats lost the 2024 presidential election, lost the Congress, and seized any of his influence in the Supreme Court effectively. Many people are wondering how something like this can happen and can the Democratic party make any kind of comeback and can save democracy in America
It seems that misunderstanding, racism, and a radical man of Maga played some roles in the loss of Democrats. Rape. Alexandria Ocesio-Coortage (DN.Y) is also correct that a good part of the defect lies in neglect of the needs of Democrats.Working classEspecially when focusing on those needs is slightly higher than.
Nevertheless, there is another factor that is underestimated in the overall calculus of wrongdoing and why will the current Democratic party not save America from Trump and Republican ‘ Hug of Maga fascismIn short, it is the Democratic Party’s own undemocratic character.
The Democratic Party has doubled a losing strategy, and it has now publicly and shamelessly in front of voters who recognize it what it is.
In the 2016 primary, the competition eventually compressed with Hillary Clinton and Burney Sanders. In July of that year, WikiLeaks revealedThat the inner formulas of DNC were bending the scales in favor of Clinton. DNC rejectedReport, but finally Chair Debbie Wasraman Shults Resigned Above the scam. after? Vasarman Shults was namedA honorary co-chairman of the Clinton Abhiyan.
In October 2016, her replacement, Donna Brezile also faced controversy after alleging allegations of neglecting the subjects of debate for the Clinton Campaign – Initially an allegation Brezile rejected But later admitted saying that “Composed party’s integrity“And was”A mistake i will regret forever“Like his predecessor, Brezile did not get any real results.
These tricks were Something seen byAs an undemocratic or evidence of a “rigged” system. The refusal and deficiency of any real accountability or repentance suggested that Clinton and DNC had no real qualifications about it. It is likely that it resulted in one Trust loss And votes from many democratic and independent voters.
You think DNC may have learned its text, but 2020 primary otherwise shown. Sanders was back – this time with speed. His message was broken through a broad public, and he also attracted in a Fox News Town Hallto encourageConservative studio from audience.
Although Sanders was not a clear most pronounced, his performance in Iowa and New Hampshire raised the real possibility of an election conference. Nevertheless, just before the Super Tuesday, Shesha suddenly and Tom Stere, Amy Clobachar and Tom Stare, excluded and also excluded and at the same time SupportedJoe Biden, while Elizabeth Warren, was the only progressive, stopped in the race. The result was a partition in the progressive vote that left Biden to soften the biden and secure enrollment.
SandersIt was seen as another undemocratic trick back and forth by DNC’s internal sources. Buttigieg launched a major slot in Biden administration, and Obama’s report Phone Buttigieg would leave only further tainted assumptions. Clobuhar will be considered for the role of Vice President but eventuallycarry backThoughts themselves. Steer became Biden’s climate engagement advisory council co-chairman.
it gets worse. After the 2024 election, Biden was refused to bow out until the primary window was closed that the Democrats were denied any competition. Instead, his vice president, Kamala Harris – who did a mountthe weakestPrimary Campaign in 2020 – It was effectively anointed as party candidate. The coronation looted democratic voters on the occasion of choosing his nominated person. Instead, they were just asked to fall into the line behind Harris or risk another Trump Presidency.
The great irony of the current Democratic Party has been a call to “save democracy”, reducing the democratic process at every turn. Voters have noticed this and have been closed properly.
Democrats tried moresquashingThe popular progressive candidates in comparison to deciding the voters compared to deciding who they should lead. Major Democrats, includingBill ClintonAndrew Cumo supported – a infamous former New York Governor reliableaccusedSexual harassment – above Zoharan Mamdani, the nominee of the party’s mayor who has a commanding lead Recent electionRecently, Harris, who was pressed twice in an interview, avoided supporting Mamdani directly, instead replied half-finished “I support democrats in the race, sure“Before changing the subject quickly.
House is both minority leader Hakim Jeffrees (DN.Y.) and Senate Minority Leader Chak Shumar (DN.Y.) rejectedTo support Mamdani, who won the nomination fair and square. Apparently, “Vote Blue Nobody” only applies to candidates approved by democratic leadership.
Many Democrats also continue to support Israel’s works in Gaza, despiteNoCall Israel for apartheid, andSouth AfricaAnd a independentUnited nations commissionAccusing Israel of massacre. Disruption and genocide also seem very undemocratic.
Why are Democrats so hypocritical when it comes to democracy? A part of the answer is that the policies of the old-garden democrats mainly take shape from the interests of their rich, corporate and special interest instead of people’s needs. Many Democrats seem to be more concerned than protecting their own relative power or their ability Enrich yourselfSo they keep losing.
