Growing population in America’s highly educated enclaves has led to huge gains for the Democratic Party. And it’s changing the electoral map going into 2024.
That’s why they like to promote the message that the Democrats are inherently ineffective as a party. It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy if they’re never given real power.
It’s amazing how often I see democrats blamed for Republican policy as well. “WHY DIDN’T THE DEMS PREVENT THIS!?” “Did you vote for them?” “NO! THEY FAIL TO STOP THE GOP FROM DOING GOP THINGS!” It’s baffling.
I mean, it’s both. Dems wouldn’t have to fix things if Repubs didn’t break them. BUT, Republicans exist, Republicans break things, and unfortunately the only other party is the one that has to fix those things.
Which is funny because the parallel narrative is that the democrats are an evil manipulating government force hell-bent on destroying America. But then again the GOP is big on projection…

Our enemies are both terrifyingly strong and laughably weak.
Where have I heard that before?..

I mean, they don’t have to promote that message.
