Because Democrats lose when they win and the GOP win when they lose.

And the media also loves the GOP narrative on things.

And of course, with 'unity" it's all on the Dems to compromise for it and the GOP bare no responsibility.

The media helps the right wing and those assertions do not take that into account.

and not Democratic messaging.

I think Biden's statements on this were good.
