i think liberals are falling into a false sense of security fwiw

fwiw this isnt pessimism or despair. its more like seeing people celebrate v-e day when in reality you havent even landed on normandy beach.

i get accused on here often of being an eeyore. i dont see it that way but maybe im not communicating it correctly.

i think in general liberals - democrats are ill-prepared for true political trench warfare. i think despite their lack of ideas gop is more loaded for battle.

dems can win major battles but theyre not loaded up for a true war. dem focus is every 2-4 years while gop is set up for a long term siege.

the fact dems win when we're in disaster but gop can win when things are going relatively well is a big vulnerability

to me it isnt a resource problem and def not a talent problem. its just that the mindset is wrong. to me.
