Democrats have been alienating their own base

Democrats have been alienating their own base. Recently many Jews, but before that many whites, many heterosexuals (mostly men back then but women now too). Then they alienated blacks with increase in crime in their neighborhood and females seeing transgenders over taking them (mostly in sports, for now, i.e. some controversy in women's chess now too). Recently they alienated Muslims with their lgbtq+ school curriculum. And most recently Jews with the increase in antisemitism.

I don't claim to predict who will win next presidential election, but it does not look good for democrats.

I've never voted Republican. I have voted Democrat in the past, in the very distant past, not in recent elections however.

I’d say they have been alienating their center, more. Their weakness is what is pissing me off, now.

@Bumbles depends on what you consider the center. As a far left economic progressive, they have only made token offerings and many of them got blocked.

Though, despite the different views of who is being addressed and ignored. I think we agree that the weakness has been sickening. They are more worried about decorum than about the impact of their failures on the lives of the people they are supposed to be representing.

@ViciDraco True, they are not very left when it comes to economics!
