Where to Go Next, 2

The Republicans have a loud and clear mandate from the American People come January 2025. But what about the Democrats? They are in shambles. They feel like I felt when I misbehaved and had to go to the "woodshed."

Note - this is a symbol of righteous punishment, not one of false claims of "abuse."

The Democrats were righteously punished in the November 2024 election. And they were spanked HARD. And while I feel that we on the Right must give no quarter (as they offer none in return, ever!), I am willing to tell them how to win, if they are willing to listen.

First, I have read many threads in Leftyworld (Reddit, etc.). I have seen many of the TikToks, YouTube videos, and Instagram reels. These people really think that folks on the Right want to take away rights, and want to kill them. That's just not the case.

Second, this election was a referendum on capitalism vs socialism. And everywhere that we have integrity in the balloting process, capitalism wins. There is a minority, perhaps 30% - 40% of the country, that wants socialism. But the majority do not. Not yet, anyhow. So enough kowtowing to the "FSA" (Free Shit Army). This will be a balancing act, because they are a good portion of your base. There are some who believe that had Bernie been the nominee, he would have won. Simply not so, the outcome would not have changed. 

Third, get the "dropsies." 

• Drop the anti-2A stuff. This is a hill to die on, literally. 
• Speaking of dying, making abortion your primary party platform did not work either. Drop the abortion rhetoric. 
• Drop the trend of calling the Republican "Hitler" - it isn't cutting it. 
• Drop the incessant desire to force LGBTQ into everyone's lives - just like you don't want Christian values "forced" into yours. 
• Drop the overwhelming need to be weird. Accept reality and deal with it. 
• Drop the activist lawfare. 

Note to The Left: with Election Integrity in battleground states, you will have to get a platform. And that platform is not "Free Shit." You MUST move back toward the center. You MUST look out for the common American. (Heck, I saw one post where a Leftist demonized common Americans for moving away from the Democrat party - no self-awareness at all there.) Position your ideas as a different solution to something we all recognize as a problem. 

Tulsi Gabbard would have beat Trump. 

RFK Jr. would have beat Trump. 

2A stances notwithstanding, I would have given either of them a serious consideration for my vote.
