“I don’t know where I am going, but I am on my way” (Voltaire)

As everyone knows the Democrats lost the 2024 election, well that’s an understatement, they got runover. Republicans swept all seven swing states, took the Presidency and Senate, and retained the House. Along the way Trump took 45% of the Hispanic vote, an increase of 13 points over 2020; doubled his support amongst Black voters from 8% to 16%; took 45% of the union vote, up from 40%; and made significant gains among Asians, high school graduates, and those with advanced college degrees. As a result, the Democratic party has undertaken an honest fact-based review of how they became the pinata party of 2024. O.K., that’s an untruth. The Democrats have locked themselves in their fact free fantasy filled bubble where they’re blaming their shellacking on everything irrelevant while engaging in the politicians’ time-honored tradition of “stab your friends in the back.” 

One of the most amazing excuses floated so far is that Biden pulled out of the race too late leaving Harris to little time to run an effective campaign. Nonsense.  That’s like saying the reason the plane crashed was because the ground was too close. 

With the concerted help of the old press Harris was initially able to hide from the voters.  For a significant part of her campaign she gave no interviews, held no press conferences, and had no unscripted interaction with voters. When she was eventually forced to do interviews she limited them to friendly venues – like the Call Her Daddy podcast, The View, and 60 minutes. Even though every one of her interviews were at friendly venues, every one of them were still a disaster. As it turned out, the more people saw of Harris, the less they liked her. If she had a month less to campaign, she would’ve been better off…in other words, Biden didn’t drop out too late, he dropped out too soon!
