It also demonstrates how impotent the DNC is. They only have to wake up tomorrow, pluck the lowest hanging fruit and never shut up about it for 10 years and the GOP would crumble.

The DNC is impotent and incompetent, but they also appeal to very different demographics than the GOP. For example, only a slim majority of our party ate lead paint chips as children.

I want to believe you but im not entirely convinced democrats arent susceptible to the same dumbassery.

Not after last election where they had everything to lose and they knew the odds were stacked against them. Still lost to a guy in orange face.

I mean, there are almost certain some who are susceptible to that same dumbassery. But enough who aren't already voting to cripple the GOP?

I don't know what the solution is, and I'm not saying don't find something to hammer the dumb-drum on to get the rats of Hamburg to follow us to a slightly-better-world. I'm just saying that it's unlikely to be any single or easy solution unless there's some radical new coalition combination of the electorate that we're just missing.
