It's simple.
The Democrats shouldn't have wasted a year of campaign time running a cognitively-impaired man and then replaced him with a milquetoast candidate who wasted three months telling poor people, many of whom are full-time, gainfully employed firefighters, to be joyful about the fact that they can't pay for groceries.
Dems need to stop blaming the voters, do some introspection, and admit to themselves that they're no better. That's especially true when it comes to the poor and working class.
Or an "opportunities economy".. bitch.. a lot of people are not entrepreneurs don't want to be entrepreneurs or are forced into being a fake one by the gig economy. Maybe shore up the base stuff before you start again helping entrepreneurs.
