    “it should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.”

    Well yeah. She wasn’t trying to make the average worker’s life better, and it’s no surprise that the DNC refuses to admit their own failures. Apparently it wasn’t enough to lose in 2016 and 2024. Why not try it again in 2028 and blame all the Bernie fans then, too?

    Eh, I don’t know how much any kind of messaging/policy would have mattered when you have a flood of corporate propaganda aimed at the Democrats. In addition there a whole lot of dingdongs that think the economy was really, really bad under Biden and/or that he had some dials somewhere that controlled inflation and things like egg prices and that he purposefully either set inflation/egg prices high or allowed them to stay there by not using these magic dials…
