tbh this is not surprising coming from the crowd that thinks turning the United States into a Shithole Country is actually Making it Great Again

What she really meant was, "By winning in 2024, the Republicans are actually losing from now on."

If there is any loss, it'll be like one poster said about the Dems failing to follow the Overton window left, but I think there's another possible negative; the pendulum swing.

Without Obama, there'd be no trump1. Without Biden/Harris, there'd be no trump2. If we shift far enough left, I'm concerned how far the pendulum will swing right afterwards.

This is not to say Zohran Mamdani's win wasn't wonderful and probably the best thing to happen to this country in... probably decades. I'm just acutely aware that this country is probably going to continue to be divided and will keep doing its craziness.

Trump didn't run against Obama. Obama would have mopped the floor with Trump if he had been allowed to be the Democratic candidate instead of Hillary Clinton. Hillary lost only because she is a poor campaigner who ignored the swing states and appealed too heavily to feminist ideology.

This is why Dems need to be the party of loud economic reform and quiet social advancement. We gotta stop ping-ponging, build a big tent for a new era. That means people staying on messaging and not attacking each other for differences of opinion. As long as we hold one progressive tenant, we're Dems. It's the words "we're dems" that matter.
