Impossible to even describe how cooked your brain must be if you think school closures in early 2021 caused a broad nationwide swing against your party in late 2024 and you could fix this by apologizing sometime in 2026
Oh yeah, and they're also supposed to apologize for school closures when most US schools were open by October 2020 and closures were decided locally.
May 15, 2025 11:50These are not serious people. They have not seriously engaged with the dynamics of public opinion and are lost in an eternal, fruitless quest for The Policy That Lost Us The Election and The Policy That Will Win Us The Next Election, which, in terms of historical goose chases, rates with El Dorado
Personally, I think if Democrats want to win elections, they should stop welcoming immigrant caravans of millions, stop trying to force grade-school sex changes, and stop collapsing the economy. Oh, they didn’t do those things?? WELL MAYBE THE INFO ENVIRONMENT IS BROKEN AND YOU SHOULD FIX THAT
You are blind to something larger: at every turn, Democrats have preferred special interests to public interests. Sometimes at a very high cost. Be lawlessness of immigration or school closure. That mechanism has reduced the trust in D. You can't brute force your way by propaganda.
School closures in early 2021, which would have been a lingering but fading holdover from mass school closures in 2020 when <checks notes> Trump was President.
People don’t need an apology. They need a serious plan to get schools better and there are lots of elected Dems at every level that can start to deliver that now!
might as well apologize for gas prices under carter. why not campaign on shitty, irrelevant things from the past that people blame your party for? "let me tell you about the false bullshit the other side made up to make you think we suck, and how sorry we are. and then vote for us."
If there is one political lesson to take from the Trump era, it’s to never apologize especially for something that really isn’t your fault and definitely not for something that happened half a decade ago. Dem leadership is so dumb and wimpy.
