    As an outsider it seemed more like they had an image problem than an issue with their concrete policies. Obviously it could be both but I got a sense people believed the dems were out of touch.

      That is because the democrats have abandoned.the working class and use guilt and loyalty to effectively fool the middle class into policies favoring the wealthy.

      Neither party is responsive to the working class because hourly wages are too low vs prices to allow for significant political donations.

      So until actrue 3rd party catches the working class and moves american politics leftward, its just fewer and fewer with more and more.

      Hence, keep people stupid so they dont figure it out.

      There were plenty of problems with the concrete policies on offer.

      ‘most lethal military’, tough on crime, secure the border… it was ridiculous to see how far right the supposed left went in search of votes. Harris’s platform looked more like Trump’s from 2016 than it did Hilary’s.
