What sucks about the Democrats losing

[USAFRetired_Liberal]

Is that the message from the MSM will be that the Americans don’t like Biden and the Democrats liberal policies which will further embolden Sinema and Manchin, and probably scared House Democrats from swing districts to halt legislation, which means nothing will get done….but the real problem is that Democratic voters didn’t turn out because they feel as if things aren’t getting done

1. I'm prepared for all the Dems in Disarray stories until the midterms

2. What sucks is people thinking we're losing.

We're WINNING bigly. Republicans can't win unless they cheat and commit massive voter fraud.

4. Virginia

Is a reliably democratic state. We will fight this until its the way it should be. The Republicans are notorious for cheating to win,, and this is no exception.. We haven't conceded and I don't forsee that happening, especially tonight.

3. Democrats did turn out.

In 2017 Democrats got 1.4 million votes. Tonight they will end up with about 1.6 million.

5. While I'm not as engaged on the specifics as I should be

and I have a favorable opinion of Joe Biden (and I will always vote) I am hard pressed pressed from memory to recall a laundry list of motivating accomplishments. The child tax credit comes to mind as one good thing. Limited college debt forgiveness that has benefitted noone that I know, including my kids. However good for the small number of people who it helps. The Afghanistan pullout and the botched drone strike were not steller. So while I appreciate the hard work and effort that is occurring and realize that it is difficult to get anything done with 48 Senators , I can see how progress so far is not super motivating.

6. Yes, that's the biggest thing. IF democrats had won they would have moved on and never mentioned it

like the California recall .

But they will be stuck on this until the next elections come up . ALWAYS bringing it up and demanding Nancy Pelosi comment on the state elections.
