There is no denying any longer than Joe Biden most of disaster for the Democratic party. Barack Obama’s instinct about Joe Biden was absolutely correct.
“Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f–k things up.”
It’s to the point now where the Joe Biden Presidential library might never be built. Is somebody going to pay a million dollars for the privilege of hearing him Mumble through a less than coherent speech?
He certainly not going to get any money from the party, which now finds itself millions of dollars in debt as a result of Kamala Harris, the Obama choice for Biden’s replacement, blowing through a record breaking billion dollars and then going even beyond that, to leave the party of financial shambles. So, no money from there.
The Democrat donor class, frustrated with how things have gone have also tightened the purse strings. So no money from there either.
Short version, the party is dead broke, and it’s prospects of a fast financial recovery are nonexistent.
As a result of all of this, I would suggest that the days of Obama holding the reins of the party are over.
Thing is, who is it ready to stand forward to replace him? At the moment, the answer is nobody. So the result of the one two punch of 4 years of what can only be called a failed administration, and all of the extreme left nonsense surrounding it have left the party in disarray.
So what’s left for them now? Not much, really. Even with the true believers, there is a realization beginning to happen. The understanding is starting to form that Trump’s Landslide occurred with the help of a goodly number of previously Democrat voters. The understanding that so much of what the extreme left has always been promulgating as virtues, we’re actually liabilities. The recognition that their problems did not involve not screaming “Trump as Hitler” loud enough.
Solutions to problems required that the problem itself be properly identified. That’s pretty basic. The problems for the Democrat party started back in 2016 which was about the time they started allowing the crazies to take over. That bubble kept growing until election day 2024 when it finally popped. The crazies, of course, will never get the message that was sent by the millions of Democratic party voters who crossed the line and voted for Trump.
It’s the party is to survive at all, they’re going to have to get the idea that there is a reason why so many rank and file Democrats decided that Trump, who the Democrat leadership deemed so inferior, was in fact a better deal for this country and its people.
The open question at this point is whether or not they will have the courage and the integrity to look in the mirror so the answer to the question of who is to blame for all of this.
I doubt it.
