"Figure out what went wrong"? The answers are already there. Democrats don't listen.
Read "Listen Liberal" by Thomas Frank. Listen to Ralph Nader.
Both Thomas and Ralph were/are right. But the Democrats don't listen.
Democrats pay attention to polls. What they don''t do, is pay attention or listen to the people. They think that because they went to blue blood schools, they know what's good for people.
At this point I'm not sure the party is redeemable.

All this frustration is appropriate. But both things can be true. Democrats need to listen and need to be in control of their own messaging. There is a feedback loop here that needs to be understood. Otherwise we are simply prey to their manipulations, and our most important debates can be inflamed and turned against us to stoke disunity instead of consensus.

Yes, the right has been fed lies and propaganda for years. But that's just a symptom.
The cause for people to wander was that Democrats left the working people years ago.

See other response. Would suggest both are true and interrelated.

@mastodonmigration @wdlindsy The Democratic Party failed us. I don't know why people are in such denial about that.

Certainly that's true, and we got beat in the information war. Both things are interrelated and need attention.

Nah.
Voters votes are subjective. What is happening to me
Right now
Regardless of reports of an improving economy
Of reports by those in power saying the economy is the best in the world
My butter costs more
Eggs cost more
And don't tell me gas costs lessAt least the shithead spoke to MY existence even if his solutions were all bullshit.
