Andrew Cuomo on why Democrats lost the election

He has some good ideas although he only alludes to some and completely overlooks the impact of having guilt as a central ideological tent post.

1. A terrible beginning: the Biden deception
2. It's always the economy, stupid
3. The tail wagged the dog
The "progressive" position of the Democratic Party - originally championed by FDR as a practical program for working Americans - was distorted by minority far-left extremist views [...] The Republican ad on this issue saying "she is for they/them and Trump is for you" was devastatingly effective.
4. Increasing the distance between the Democratic Party and Main Street America
5. The Biden administration failed to perform.
6. Leaders are strong
7. It's all about the abortion issue, except when it isn't.
8. We don't put political opponents in jail
9. There are no facts
10. Sexism and racism still exist

---- off with all this --------.

It was not any of this ----. I am so ------- tired of the finger pointing.

The ONLY group responsible for re-electing ----ler is the American people. They CHOSE a rapist. EVERY voter knew what they needed to know about him. They chose him.

Any blaming of Biden or Harris or leftists or centrists or Schumer or Garland or polls or demographics or messaging or messages or whatever the ---- is wrong headed.

It is the stupid and evil magat scum that did it.

Focus your effort at them. they deserve the scorn heaped upon them.

Dude, I know your heart is in the right place, but you need to take some deep breaths and relax a bit and maybe get some perspective.

Were Americans evil, etc ... when they elected Obama 16 years ago? If so, when did that evil transition happen?

Trump won with as many votes this time as he lost with four years ago. Truth is people did not turn out for Kamala. Maybe consider the reasons they failed to do so.

Trump's win may have been inevitable given the economic realities. But Dems didn't do themselves any favors with a number of positions they took.

I posted the below on another blog entry that was deleted, but here goes again:

Dems really need to up their game on throwing people under the bus if they want to regain and retain power. Maybe look to Bill Clinton for some pointers.

Why Bill Clinton really signed DOMA
The way Bernie Sanders tells it, the former president is guilty of political expediency.

Politics is a contact sport and Dems need to learn when to bench some of their players.

Amen!

The problem with all of this Monday morning quarterbacking is the lack of details as to how to proceed! What specific policies should the dems have put/not put forward? Sure, it's easy enough to criticize from the 30,000 ft level but bring those criticisms down to the ground level and deal with the consequences of treating people as 2nd class citizens.

Figuring out why Dems lost isn't finger pointing its preparing for next time.

FYI blaming Americans as a group is a good example of why Dems lost.

If they don't want to be blamed they can crawl over and beg my forgiveness.

Until then, you support -------, you're scum.

When ------- inevitably hurts them they will come back crawling.

Andrew Cuomo pontificating on another administration's competence. Gag me.

If you want to keep losing truth hurts keep the hate going and then be surprised again and again when people don't want to agree with you.
