The good news is we outnumber Maga. We have to reach the apathetic and disenfranchised voters. We have to stop worrying about Maga. They will never change.

Mamadami won by reaching apathetic & disenfranchised voters. Is the DNC capable of doing that? Or do they still think that "conservative lite" is the way to go?

You really want your answer? House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries still refuses to endorse NYC's Democratic nominee for mayor. Reason given (seriously): "I don't know him". A list is available of all the Democrats Jeffries HAS endorsed. I'm sure the donor class had nothing to do with his caution.

I just see red whenever I hear Jeffries or Schumer or any of these other Democratic AIPAC whores give a performative fire-breathing speech about how righteously indignant they are at the horrible awful no-good things that are happening. Also sux when clueless Dems hear that and praise his "bravery"

Even if we could peel away a few Maga voters because of Epstein, do you think they’ll vote for Democrats? No. They have been taught from birth that there is nothing worse than a Democrat.

Ironically, their ancestors were Democrats as recently as 60 years ago. Then, along came Nixon and his "Southern Strategy"and "Silent Majority".

The Democrats base won't show up to vote for Democrats either, so there's that. Just sit on the couch during the midterms that decide redistricting and then spend the next decade whining about gerrymandering.

No…but it’s very likely those that peel off won’t vote at all. These are people who likely only voted because of Trump anyway.

Of course they won't vote for Democrats. But they might just stay home and not vote at all, and that's the most hopeful outcome in elections with thin margins.

This is why a lot of progressives turned on Cenk Uygur for trying to “outreach” to MAGA. They’ll never join our side. We need to build our coalition by reaching out to those who are disillusioned. Get them back involved and, most importantly, actually delivering results when we win.

MAGA is lost. For sure. We have to focus on the white women whose children are losing their 504s, college loan access or Medicare. Those are the voters we can get. Maybe the Hispanics that were vehemently pro Trump and see what is happening.

I gave a speech about the apathy of voters in America back in 1984. That's been over 41 years and nothing has changed. There are too many that "just don't care about politics". I wonder what it would take to make them care.
