Democrats have been serving a strange master. You wonder if they are masochists. I think they misunderstand the terrain. They keep peddling old electoral points. Though they seem to be holding their ground if you step back the truth emerges. They've lost to an epic degree.
Asses were kicked.
They've been crushed, disenfranchised and banished from the lands of political potency into the fields of feckless spectatorship. They've been retired or their values have. Still, they continue to screw up in the same way apparently never asking themselves if they should try something else.
Just try it. Because they're losing to goons. People who aren't even American. Who don't accept anything like the initial social contract. Yet they say they're originalists. The founders were rationalists and pragmatists, to a fault. Not cultists. That practicality is banished with the Democrats.
Democrats represent the true, flawed traditions of America. They have to ask themselves, given where their political tactics have gotten them, if they should rethink. First they have some pride to swallow, to see how badly they've been beaten. Then their party and the country might be reborn.
