what the fashionable young wingnuts are telling themselves about the next election

You don’t get it. A Democrat against a RINO, the Democrat will win. That is what your statistics are saying. If the Republicans “primary” that RINO and nominate a MAGA, the MAGA will win. That is what my statistics are saying.
Midterms are won by who has the best message and the most energy — what party can best “get out the vote”. You won - at least five elections - in the last round by voter fraud. That is going to be taken away. When you also take away, and we will, the more than 2 million illegal alien vote, Hillary did not win the popular vote. We are picking off at least 30% of the black vote, and 40% of the hispanic vote. The country has swung to the right. 33 states are now Republican.
Your Party does not have a viable message. The Democrat message is — “”We are the white men in suits, the elite white liberal establishment — who went to Harvard. You are stuck with us. We deserve to be in control because we are ruthless, we have “the will to power” and we want to be in control, and we want to micromanage everything. But we can’t tell you what we are going to do because you won’t like it, so we are going to exploit your emotions and also the stuff some of you identify with. We will make accusations and call our opponents names. We will exploit emotional issues like Gun Control. And we will change the subject when people bring up how we abandoned DACA.”
In the next election, people, including a lot of working Democrats, are going to vote for immigration reform and jobs, the wall. They literally hate the MSM. The Saul Alinsky strategy does not work any more. It makes people angry.

You are living in a bubble. You have no idea how angry the public is at the DNC & the MSM — including Democrats. Even California has become, or will become, a red state. This is not your mother’s DNC. This is the corrupt Soros DNC. Your party is imploding. Soros refuses to let it make adjustments — he is stuffing all moderate voices. And he is trying to impose Hillary again as your next presidential candidate. The oddsmakers have her leading. You have lost between 30% and 50% of your voters. Soros has turned it into the LGBTQ, black communist racist, Agenda 21, Saul Alinski Party. Many Democrats are not saying they are leaving the Party. They are saying the Party has left them — Soros pushed the envelope too too far to the left.
