When President-elect Donald Trump replaces Barack Obama on January 20, the Democratic Party will find itself more removed from power than at almost any point since the partys creation.
Scorned by the same voters who once embraced the New Deal, built the Great Society, and put their hope in the nations first black president, Democrats are now locked out of power in Washington and out of two-thirds of state legislative chambers across the country...

WOO HOO - Party at my house this Friday!
“Democrats are now locked out of power in Washington and out of two-thirds of state legislative chambers across the country...”
And once Trump’s pick hits the bench, all that is left is a few senate seats.
Watching the Dems pout, cry and whine is basically a strategy for more losses - no new ideas, socialism only is attractive to losers.
If Trump could just make a concerted effort to pull in black and Hispanic conservatives (which aren’t really a small percentage), the Democrats have lost power for generations — particularly if they don’t change their message and look more toward the working class.
I’m very surprised at how NBC could have come up with an honest view of this election. I’m sure it’ll get buried somewhere in their archives.
That is an awesome article. Bookmarking this one.
Maybe declaring Climate Change our Numero Uno problem today is part of it too.. Thank Jean Clod sKerrry and Obammy for that.. They are consistent if nothing else.
DEPOPULATE conmen, criminals, Clintons, collectivists, liars, looters, morons, marxists, progressives, punks, ‘rats, regressives, socialists,scumbags, tyrants, totalitarians, whiners and wussies from the body politic.
HOORAY America.

Ya, they sound absurd when they say global warming is the greatest threat to mankind. Greater than Muslim terrorism and ISIS??? Really???
Obama and his administration look foolish when they push global warming and trans whatever bathroom laws at the same time when ISIS is killing people. They downplay the threat of ISIS and overstate the alleged human rights violations implicit in trans people’s bathroom issues.
Liberals simply have no sense of perspective or sense of priorities. If we don’t stop Muslim terror and the Muslim war on the civilized world, then global warming won’t matter will it??
Not a word about “safe minority’ districts. The Dims where hoisted on their own racial quota systems petard in Congressional districts. Did the Pubbies gerrymander? Yes and in large part by partnering up with Dim minority candidates. In order to get enough minorities into a district to guarantee the election of a minority candidate requires some areas to be very homogenous. Oh the racial political irony that you need a broad dispersal of minorities to elect white Democrats.
He also ignores the fact that Dims have a minority racial preference in their primaries as well. Special interest group’s votes are more heavily weighted so as to generate more minority candidates.
So when you overlay minority weighted primaries on minority safe congressional districts and those on over minority concentrated geographic areas you a have a 3X dilution of minority voting power. Especially y when you consider that most minorities vote Dim.
The left is still in power
It will take thirty years of Trump like presidents to fix this mess
Government workers are leftist for the most part
They control the media
The control education
Old people are dying off being replaced by leftist educated kids
They don’t seem to get that in a few years, millenials will be approaching 40, will have been in the work force for 10 or 15 years, and may have an entirely different ideas about politics.
I have seen this in my own family; you advance in your career, you buy a house, and all of a sudden different things matter to you.
Who’s fault is that?
Ditto when you start having children. That is a major turning point in life, in which some people decide they really don’t want to raise a family in a liberal city such as San Francisco,,for example. So they move somewhere more family friendly.
Actually there is so much wrong with the history in this article that it is amazing it came to conclusions it did.
Well, it’s a start. If Trump doesn’t disappoint us. I have high hopes, though.
They have plenty of allied Democrats in R jerseys in the Senate.
The next step must be replacing them in 2018.
Top of the list, those who voted for Gang of Eight.
Corker, Heller, Hatch and Flake.
A more accurate title:
Democrats Lurch Left, Leaving Voters and Power Behind.
