Democrats are committed to losing and are turning towards "we gotta be more racist and transphobic".

Seth Moulton also turning on trans people and outright declaring himself transphobic after prior tweets recognising things like Trans Day of Remembrance.

No way, Democrats have to pivot more to the right, surely that help, right? …right?

It helps their donors, who would rather the Dems lose than shift left and win.

It has helped exactly 0 times in the past, why wouldn't it work this time?

Liberals are losing their minds blaming everyone except their dogshit policies and strategies.

You know what, yeah I did cause the Dems to lose. And you know what, I’ll fuckin do it again in the midterms if they don’t move left.
