So says the New York Times, hardly a bastion of conservative thought.
They lay it out in their article :
The party is bleeding support beyond the ballot box, a new analysis shows.
The reasons are obvious.
Most of us remember Obama's inane observations concerning the right "clinging to guns or religion."
Leftists are doing the exact opposite: clinging to unpopular, woke, out of touch concepts and ideas with their standard death grip.
I get it. It's painful. Most tectonic shifts for the mentally ill are painful. Addressing the underlying causes of these illnesses can cause almost as much damage as the causes themselves.
But the left's excuses for getting clobbered last November in the presidential race are the biggest symptom of their disease of them all.
They clearly remain incapable of anything approaching introspection.
The closest any leftist has come is Van Jones, who acknowledged Trump may be the smartest guy in the room.
Guys can we cut it out? Donald Trump is not an idiot. Donald Trump, let me just be very clear. Donald Trump is smarter than me, you, and all critics. You know how I know? Because he has the White House, the Senate, the House, the Supreme Court, the popular vote," Jones said.
The loss, to hear the left tell us, wasn't because of anything Kamala DID. How many have told us
that she led a "flawless campaign?"
Introspection to avoid the same mistakes we all make in the future can, and
frequently is, tortuously painful.
Harris's mistakes were obvious.
But the left's excuses for her bludgeoning at the polls completely defy
reality and continue to prove they learned nothing from their crushing presidential election defeat.
The left focuses on the low-hanging fruit of her gender, her race, media
portrayals and so on.
They NEVER talked about policies (such as they were), her failure to reach
out/connect with the middle/working class, the moronic insanity of her towing
the Biden line ("can't think of a thing" she'd change) her
responsibility for keeping the lie that Biden was perfectly OK mentally as
president when it was clear to every sentient being on the planet that
#DementiaJoe could no longer run an elevator.
They never explained her abysmal
failure as "Border Tsar," instead blaming the massive influx of
millions of unvetted, unvaccinated illegals that has literally cost us hundreds
of billions of dollars on the allegedly Trump-directed defeat of the so-called
"bipartisan" border bill that would have cheerfully, and legally,
allowed 1.8 million illegals in per year.
(As aside, one wonders: the Biden factory insisted the defeat of that bill made
it impossible to do what Trump has done WITHOUT that bill; mainly, close down
the border to almost all illegal crossings. Weird that Trump could do it
without the bill after Biden, et al, claimed it couldn't be done.)
Instead, they choose to continually die on hills that actually took away even a
remote chance of winning. Spending on and defending illegals as if they were much
more important than citizens, insanity like the White House Trans Day that just
happened to fall on Easter a while back, continued to claim the southern border
crisis was made up, continuing to vociferously protect illegal alien criminals.
Continuing to make outrageous claims that put most of
their positions are on the wrong end of almost every 80/20 political equation, such as
allowing fake females to compete against and use the locker rooms of real
females in our public schools and colleges, such as horrific tax increases the
left loves, such as having a hissy-fit over DOGE's efforts to cut government
waste and spending; something they frequently talked about while simultaneously
doing nothing about, etc.
Even now, they defy the reality of many fringe-left controlled cities (not least of which includes Washington, DC) as cesspools of crime. They freak out over the use of federal and National Guard troops to restore something approaching order, instead whining about such actions being "unconstitutional" and Trump taking over America and so forth.
Even the people of D.C. know better.
Months later, the democrats refuse to look in the mirror at the REAL reason they got their asses kicked in November and the real reasons they're hemorrhaging
support and money now.
They are so programed that they are INCAPABLE of admitting they are wrong. On
ANYTHING.
And until such time as the people who brought them to this level of insanity
are gone... until the delusionals running the show are no longer in charge?
They'll become increasingly irrelevant as common sense rears its frequently
ugly head even though they know, deep down, that if this is the hill they
choose to die on?
That's where they'll be buried.
