The dem message of "we won't do better but the other guy will do worse" failed. It was a bad message and it lost them the election against a terrible candidate. Voters need to be motivated to vote and that message isn't motivating enough

Right, it wasn't the media harping on every single thing the Dem candidate did wrong while apologizing and making excuses for Trump at every turn. Going on and on about Biden's age and then never bringing up age again once Biden dropped out of the race. No it's all the Dems fault 🙄

Did you watch the first debate where Biden could hardly speak a sentence? They were right about Biden's age. And they knew that Trump voters would never listen to them so what's the point of going after him over and over?

At the end of the day the blame falls mostly on the campaign and on the party and they failed. They have to do better than this or they'll fail again.
