How did the Democrats lose to Trump?

Jennifer Welch 0:04
the united states of america is in a world of hurt because the president of the united states is a convicted felon a con man in a world class incompetent so then my brain goes to how did the democrats lose to this man that to me is so important for the dnc for the democratic national committee How did we lose to him? What can we do to better ourselves? How can we fix ourselves? Well, as you know, they did a big autopsy. And then Ken Martin, the leader of the DNC, said they weren't going to release it to the public, which to me was like, how can we be an opposition party if we don't believe in transparency? If we're not going to purge like this is what happened and here's how we're going to fix it.

If we're going to if the DNC is going to treat the electorate in that way, in such a condescending way, we're not going to tell you why we lost, but we want your vote. That to me is not really building a good coalition. Well, here's what's starting to drip out, which a lot of people have expected. Top Democrats conducting a still secret 2024 election autopsy concluded Kamala Harris lost meaningful support over the Biden administration's handling of Gaza. This is per Axios. In a closed door meeting, DNC officials told the pro-Palestinian IMEU policy project their data showed the policy was a net negative, especially with young and progressive voters. So here's my take on this. You have current politicians that could win a general election, like take a look at Gavin Newsom.

What is the significance of the DNC's 2024 election autopsy?

And instead of him reaching out to the progressive base of the party, he is doing podcasts with the late Charlie Kirk, with Ben Shapiro. And I don't understand why the Democratic Party doesn't reach out to the progressive side, especially when you see progressives winning everywhere. Why is it this civil war within the Democratic Party that you have these people that are going to cling on to corporate interests so hard and then smush down any sort of open-minded progressive voices? And I think we know why, because corporations pay the dnc more than progressive individuals do and so this is such a serious exist existential threat to the country that the dnc i think is never going to win elections again unless they get serious about being a true opposition party and that means opposing a blank check

to Benjamin Netanyahu as a war criminal. Americans do not want their taxpayer money going to fund a genocide. And then after we funded it, you have Donald Trump, Jared Kushner, Steve Witkoff, Benjamin Netanyahu talking about raising Gaza and they're all going to make billions of dollars. And for the Democratic Party not to be in opposition to that, I just think it shows such a disrespect and a patronizing voice to the people who they want their vote and they want their trust. I think it's just such a disgrace. And so if you look to the Democratic primary race in Chicago, here is a video that I think completely encapsulates the difference between a progressive Democrat that is not beholden to corporations, that is not beholden to AIPAC, and then corporate Democrats.

Watch this clip. support Hakeem Jeffrey's continued leadership of the House Democrats. Hold on.

Why are young voters disappointed with the Democratic Party?

Jennifer Welch 3:53
Okay, for those of you watching, pause it right there, Kylie. Okay, the lady on the left, after about 10 seconds, she said, okay, yes, I want Hakeem to still be the leader in the House. The guy in the middle won't commit. classic democrat won't pick a side pick me i don't want to say the wrong thing and then kat she immediately puts up nope she does not think that hakeem jeffries should be the leader of the democratic party and here's the thing kat's opinion is not some fringe leftist idea the majority of americans are profoundly disappointed in hakeem jeffries and chuckle schumer people want new leadership People want politicians that don't take money from Palantir, that don't take money from AIPAC, and then tell us to shut up and vote blue no matter who.
