When you lose an election with someone who has, say, 40 percent popularity, you look in the mirror and say what did we do wrong? And the number one thing that we did wrong is we didn't have -- we didn't tell people what we stood for," Schumer said...

Ah, Chuck, the reason you got 40% is because you didn't tell people what you really stood for. Go ahead, tell them, and look forward to your popularity accurately aligning to the number of national journalists, the gender confused, and other odd groups. That ought to get you up to an honest 8% support.

Democrats the party of working people? They brought down the economy and cried wolf against the Republicans. They didn't give a COLA to Social Security recipients and Federal and postal retirees for three years out of Obama's eight years, a first in history, and Obama's final COLA for 2017 was a puking .3 percent, almost nothing, not even enough to cover the health benefits increase. Talk about throwing working persons under the bus, wait till the workers retire and break your promises and past tradition to care for them.

At least Trump is talking about a 1.5 percent COLA for 2018 tho I'm not happy about the proposal to shave it to one percent for federal and postal retirees, I wrote all my representatives about it and only Congressman Tim Murphy, R.PA-18 emailed me back a response. All I can say is I hope Trump's administration doesn't punish federal and postal retirees with the COLA announcement in October. That's when we'll see if the new administration will treat all retirees fairly or go after one group unfairly.

“It’s called “A Better Deal” and House and Senate Democratic leaders are rolling it out Monday afternoon in Berryville, Virginia. They’re intentionally traveling outside the Beltway, and into the district of one of the GOP House members they hope to defeat next year, Barbara Comstock.”

I’m confused. If Trump hasn’t done anything in 6 months, isn’t a better deal a shot at Obama?

“because voters don’t know what the party stands for.”

Actually, as is the case with leftist, it is the exact opposite of what they say.

They LOST because the voters know what they stand for.
Or don’t stand for (AMERICAN CITIZENS)

There is literally no chance they will look in the mirror, self-evaluate and reach the correct conclusion. Zero.

Democrats think of themselves as the party of working people and were surprised when Trump was able to steal working-class voters ...

WE KNOW WHO DEMOCRATS ARE...

Democrats are the people who hire and fund thugs to rough up Trump supporters and burn down cities and use inner city blacks to prop up white liberal elites. Democrats left the white working class years ago... And the Democrat party? See my tag: "Angry old black women like Maxine, elite scatterbrained white women like Pelosi AND thugs: the face of the modern democrat party.

I believe their new agenda is that men are now to be called women.

#DemocratMeme Men are now to be called women!

Bernie says he is running again. He can introduce his first lady in an orange jumpsuit from a state prison. LOL

Or on the steps of his million dollar lake home...

LATEST DNC TRICK:

“Trump isn’t Republican, he’s Populist. The Democrat Party is Populist so if you support Trump, vote Democrat.”

... they're trying to rebrand themselves with a new slogan and a populist new agenda as they look ahead to the 2018 midterms.

Have you noticed thugs running the democrat party have STOPPED ALL VIOLENT "PROTESTS"? Seems democrats got the message beating up innocent Americans, burning down cities and breaking windows in college squares wasn't working. We suspected all along that democrat operatives were behind the violence - now we know for sure. This new 'caring about traditional Americans' is a lie - and people are on to democrat tricks...

See tag - - " Angry old black women like Maxine Waters, elite scatterbrained white women like Nancy Pelosi and common minority thugs: the face of the modern democrat party."

“.......voters don’t know what the party stands for”.....

They can’t be serious! Anyone with a “D” connected to their name tells me all I need to know. Swamp dwellers, all of them. they cannot be gone quickly enough for me.

If your theory is correct then we shall soon see them cool it on the Trump Freakout, as that is not polling well either.
