    Exactly what is the Democrats base these days? I am genuinely curious. Because it seems they don’t have one and don’t listen to what any normal person wants.

    Health care? Improving or even maintaining infrastructure? Education? Affordable housing?

      The Democratic National Party believes they are entitled to all progressive votes in the U.S. by sole virtue of being the lesser evil, so they don’t feel like they need to appeal to their progressive voter base.

      I personally think the “undecided, conservative centrists” that the DNC keeps trying to court every election are a myth, but presumably that’s the base they think they need to win.

        It apparently worked for the last 30+ years. And it led to the current Orange Cheeto that will hasten the demise of the US empire.
