Listening and Talking

In a general since, people have been suggesting the reason the dems lost the presidency as well as so many other races is because they didn’t listen to the voters. Certainly, I must agree with them, but it doesn’t stop there.

To a major degree they didn’t even speak to the voters. Kamala especially refused to say anything that she would do. Then on the other hand, had she said what she planned to do, I suspect it would come out even worse for it.

Also, they came out with instructions. They told the Blacks and the Hispanic that they better vote democrat. They told the union workers to vote democrat. Moreover, they were trying to tell everyone what to think, what to send in messages and such. They said, you better watch what you say or we will come after you.

Maybe Black people were tired of voting democrat and yet being treated as step-children. Maybe the union people were tire of voting democrat and seeing all their high paying jobs find their way into Mexico & China. Maybe they were starting to say among themselves we don’t need that anymore.

On a somewhat related note: Many say that Kamala would have done much better had she had 150 days to run her campaign. Actually, it was quite the opposite. Every day of the campaign Kamala’s numbers went down. Had she had 50 more days, she would have done far worse. It would have given the voters more time to realize just how bad of a president she would make. Where this would be most notable would have been in early in voting. Had people who voted early the first chance the got, they would have had a better look at Kamala. They might have even voted for Trump.

On the other hand, if it was 50 days less, Kamala might have benefited from not being so well known.
