Good analysis. The Pyrrhic victory of 2022 doomed them.
The RATS should have sent somebody down to the border to check what the hell was going on there and report back to Biden and Harriz.
It (2022 midterms) worked out for Republicans’ good too in terms of further siphoning off the Old Guard GOP and Neoconservative grasp of the party.
Praise God.

These postmortems are not willing to address the fact that Kamala was the ultimate empty suit. Nothing about her expressed leadership. She was the ultimate defective candidate, only placed in that position by race and gender.
It’s not strategy, it’s not Biden, it’s not the timeline. It’s the candidate.
Well Kamala was at 28% approval then, so why did they chose the cackler without any primaries?
so what you will, Biden went through the primaries twice and won both times.
No surprise Biden sabotaged Harris including putting on a MAGA hat at one time.
Ronna McDaniel certainly helped Democrats in 2022.
I would suggest the “Taranto Effect”, a term coined by Wall Street Journal columnist James Taranto, played a part. He argued that the sycophantic media echo chamber blinded the left to their weak spots and actually created an arrogance that led to (for them) confusing failures. Such is the case this time: they’re utterly unwilling to face the fact that it may be their worldview and policies that are true failures.
Two other thoughts: Limbaugh always said that Marxism could never win in the marketplace of ideas because it is so obviously flawed. They have to hide it, which is impossible if you have a bomb thrower like Trump who calls out every instance. That’s a lesson for all of us. Never miss an opportunity to call out Marxism. Stamp it out at every turn.
And finally, I wouldn’t mind it if somebody smart and well-connected followed this missing 11 million votes thing, because the truth might jar some of these liberal nut jobs into actual reality.
Everybody on the left is studying to figure out what they did wrong. I guess I will have to inform them: Incompetent person with a failing record espousing insane beliefs.
And behind her is the democrat party with a record of stupid beliefs busily dismantling the country.
Bingo! But she was more than an empty suit, she always wore a very ugly suit.
Many average Americans recognized her and rejected her from the outset based on her "work" record in both CA and the WH, and her lifetime of leftist political connections including her father, as a Marxist-inclined authoritarian.
“The Times interviewed nearly 50 Democratic officials and found that among “nearly all the Democrats interviewed, the president’s age — 79 now, 82 by the time the winner of the 2024 election is inaugurated — is a deep concern about his political viability.”
During the 2020 election it was clear Biden had dementia. Covid was just an excuse for campaigning from the basement. Every Democrat politician and the mainstream media knew in 2021 he was a puppet. Once again the Times fails to tell the true story.
This is what they did wrong.
This is a lesson for Republicans too. Trump and the GOP need to focus on keeping the country out of war, closing the border and getting the economy back on track. The next four years can’t look like a soap opera.
The Democrats think they can just claim to be moderates and move to the center for 2026 and beyond.
Nope, that won’t fly. They have way too many people in their ranks who have drank the far left kool-aid. They will not budge on their extreme views on abortion and LGBT issues, which the Democrats will have to “moderate” to be viewed as a mainstream party by the electorate.
Truth doomed them.
Any suggestion that they are not moderates is disinformation and anyone saying it should be reeducated.
It’s not the arrow, it’s the Indian.
“This is a lesson for Republicans too. Trump and the GOP need to focus on keeping the country out of war, closing the border and getting the economy back on track. The next four years can’t look like a soap opera.”
The downside is we’re still stuck with most Republicans. Mike “No Johnson” Johnson comes to mind.
Intimidated by the Democrat matriarchy and the queer lobby.
