There was a whole lot of "we gotta go back to the drawing board" type poo poo. Not sure if you know this, but theres more to the government than just the president. Dems lost pretty heavily in those too.

No that's exactly it, I guess I'm some sort of jackalope because I would've voted bernie over trump but I fuckin called it from day 1 the Dems definitely would outright rig it against him any way possible and Oh my shocking that happened

Also, not sure if you know this, but Clinton took office with a dem house/senate and left it with a repub house/senate. W took office with a repub house/senate and left it with a dem house/senate. Obama took office with a dem house/senate and left it with a repub house/senate. It's almost like it's a trend!

From what I have read, all top DNC chair candidates explain the election loss as "Talked too much about how bad Trump is and forgot to campaign in all 50 states." and that's it. I think most still want to focus on identity politics with the long term strategy of waiting for the demographics to shift (less white people). Personally, I think that's not only a terrible strategy but also incredibly divisive and bad for the country.

Personally, I think that's not only a terrible strategy but also incredibly divisive and bad for the country. unfortunately the republicans have lost their marbles more and more since the 90s so basically your choice really is 'do you want a party that at least engages with reality and believes their job is to actually run the government or not' it really loving sucks but those are our choices until the republican party finally comes to its senses (lol)
