The issue is the left doesn’t advertise what people want to hear from the left. They see adds about social changes, and they don’t care as much. If the left can push and promote policies that helps everyday people, even those on the right, people would be happier. Push for universal healthcare, free/cheap higher education, affordable housing, higher wages. Democrats haven’t done enough to push these policies or promote them, so people don’t get excited enough to go out and vote.
Is that why Bernie lost? He wasn’t economically left enough, or loud enough on those issues?
At some point you have to face facts. The country, and the people residing in it, are not what you want them to be, and pretending otherwise is disadvantaging your own side.
