So a mass of Americans misunderstood something about politics and that's the voters fault. Ok. Sure. Ill give you that. But if only there was a major political party we could use to communicate with a mass of these Americans and correct the record.
Oh, wait, that's literally the job the Democratic party. You can come up with any excuse; voters, Republicans, misinformation, media, etc. But at the end of the day the party that is actually responsible for combatting those things failed. They failed to communicate with the American people. They are run by a bunch of rich old boomers with zero connection or understanding to the workers of America.
If you don't criticize the party and instead let them get away with "blaming voters" then they will never actually change their policies and messaging that has failed them over and over again.
Seriously, if the problems is actually voters then isn't the solution in changing the actual platform we use to communicate with voters? Because if that platform isn't working then we should blame that platform as well. Actually, we should focus on the problems with that platform BECAUSE that is what is used to change voters minds.
