Post-match: So what is next for the Democratic Party? (Post 2024)

some abundance types would like Democrats to go towards a more Clinton Type party, that would piss off the hard left.

Abundance also says that we over did it with regulations, we became the party of process and just made the process way more difficult that it should be, that scares some people that see it as an excuse to hurt unions, the environment, minority groups, ect.

I do not think they are wrong, the problem with democrats is that we are trying to do things for many different groups, each regularity process that tries to help one, slows down the efficiency of government. It hurts the ability for Democrats to accomplish their policies.

As Klein put it in some podcast, the whole school rock song on how a bill becomes law is no longer complete. Getting a bill into law is only the first step, the regulatory process that happens afterwards can be just as difficult.

I would think it is not about trowing one or two particular groups under the bus, but the party most make selections and depending on the project, we need to cut out some groups from the process, we can not have all of them having virtual veto power to derail every government project.

 

Nate Silver is not popular I know, but he broke down a 2022 survey on mental health, conservatives say they are happier at every demographic breakdown.

I get it, it's just like how I am not an alcoholic because I don't go to meetings.

But it still makes us an unhappy bunch. Perhaps that is why that other study I saw claimed Democrats were more intolerant to dissenting oppositions, we are unhappy and get angry.

 

One thing to note, black liberals report being almost as happy as white conservatives, both happier than white liberals.

 

Will he save him as he did Biden in 2020?

 

From the economists.

Romans 3:23 I believe.


"In each of the big cities in states run by Democrats the problems are similar: the cost of living is enormous; taxes are high yet services are often poor; and infrastructure is shoddy.

The best rebuke to the president would be to deal with these issues"

That would mean reducing the size of the Federal / State governments.

That is not popular among the left.
