    I’m guessing this would make sense if I lived in a right-wing media bubble.

    Since I don’t, I can only chuckle cynically to myself at the irony of this complete and utter failure to grasp the real problem with the Democrats.

        Yeah - it’s just way too weird when I run across some right-wing thing about the Democrats supposedly losing by running candidates who are too far to the left. Granted that to the current right, anything left of Reagan is too far left, but still - all it would take is about five minutes of unbiased media to find out that that’s the exact opposite of the actual problem.

      The problem is that their (potential) voters are not the kind of people that fall in line or heed authority, and whos standards are based on ideals.

      This is also fertile ground for division / discouragement psyops poking the “they don’t meet your standards” button.
