You’re not owed your ass kissed for a vote. That’s not how it works. A candidate has to try to appeal to more than single issue voters. Historicity this has been proven true.
No one is asking for their asses to be kissed, we’re asking for a campaign that appeals to enough voters in the party’s own base as opposed to courting voters in the other party’s base.
And I said a candidate needs to appeal to a wider audience than to court single issue voters. If those single issue voters understood this, maybe things would have gone differently.
Yes, maybe things would have gone differently if they had done anything to appeal to people with a proven track record of voting blue (including opposing genocide in Gaza, which most Democrat voters oppose) rather than trying to appeal to imaginary “moderate Republicans”. I guess we’ll never know!
I hope you didnt learn the wrong lesson. I was doing post mortem on arguments I had before the election and you came up. Decided to check in on you. My heart was so full after reading this. I know we didn’t have the impact we wanted but to see you put aside grievances and made the hard choice is moving me right now. I wanted so badly for you to be astroturfing when I clicked your name but to find this was much much better and gave me a glimpse of some long lost hope I use to have.

Yes. Democrats alienating the people whose votes they need to win is absolutely a democrat problem.

You sure showed them, didn’t you?
I compromised on my morals by voting for Harris. Fat lot of good that did me. I learned a lesson, but I doubt that the Dems did.
