Democrats cannot beat Trump. Melting is not a strategy


The sickly rhetoric of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz illuminates that the Democratic Party is still swinging to find their way in the second term of President Donald Trump.

Now that President Donald Trump is back in the White House, it is clear to me that he attracts most of the attention. Can I pause for a minute to say how excited I am that the Democrats did not win Harris and Tim Walz in November?

The former vice president and their running mate have been lately and about the cut, and heard that they talked again why voters made the right choice in the presidential election.

Harris, who spoke to a group on April 30, who recruited democratic women for an office, returned to the tired campaign rhetoric over Trump and claimed that he caused a “constitutional crisis”.

She also awoke to the crowd that the Democrats had to reflect how a herd of elephants in the San Diego Zoo reacted to an earthquake.

“Everyone asked what they think about these days,” said Harris. “For those who did not see it, these elephants were, and as soon as they felt the earth trembled under their feet, they got into a circle and stood next to each other to protect the strongest endangered. Think about it. What kind of mighty metaphor.”

And Walz, the democratic governor of Minnesota, gave a lecture with the Kennedy School of Harvard on the future of the Democratic Party. It was strange, as Walz likes to say when he spoke about why Harris selected him for the ticket.

“I was able to speak to white boys – watch football, repair their truck, do it so that I could calm her down,” said Walz. “I was the permission structure to say:” Look, you can do it and vote for it. “”

That turned out to be good for him.

Such a sickly rhetoric of two of the most famous Democrats shows that the party is still swinging to find its way in a second Trump office.

While the Democrats reliably melt over everything that Trump does or says, they have not presented any credible alternatives to the urgent questions that the president concerns – including border security, trade and deficit.

Democrats remain the party of the status quo and the voters know

Walz 'code talk messaging and HARRIS' Elephant-Circle strategy will not convince the country that the Democrats are not the party of status quo.

Voters have to hear real ideas and a real vision.

Even if Trump's admission figures fluctuate, the country is still confident that it made the right choice in November. And the voters certainly don't flock before Democrats.

In a recently carried out CNN survey, 42% of US -growing people say that Trump did a better job than Harris, 41% say that Harris would have been better and 16% say they were about the same.

And if Trump is compared to Democrats in the congress – his latest political opponents – he continues to come out. In a demand in Washington Post-ABC NewS IPSOS, registered voters were asked, of which they believe they do a better job for the country's main problems, and 40% said Trump. Congress democrats said only 32%.

Democrats have to come up with something better than “Trump stinks”. Are you?

Another democratic governor with larger political ambitions gave a speech in an important capital at the end of April. The Illinois Governor JB Pritzker spoke to a group of New Hampshire Democrats, which points out that he is a more likely competitor in the area code of 2028. He reproached members of his party because he had not done enough after their losses of 2024, and demanded a “brave” agenda.

However, his recommendations left a lot to be desired.

“Never before in my life I asked for mass protests, for mobilization, because of a fault,” said Pritzker. “But I'm now. These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace. They have to understand that we will fight their cruelty with every megaphone and microphone we have. We have to go on the soap box and then punish them on the ballot.”

He also called Trump a “crazy” that cannot be argued or negotiated, and he said that Republicans who supported Trump should send their portraits in “Museum halls for tyrants and traitors”.

I will guess and assume that this type of news will insult the ten million voters that Trump has selected against the lackluster Agenda Harris and Walz.

The tober against Trump and his followers failed repeatedly for Democrats. And it will be again.
