From Breitbart: Two former campaign managers for former President Barack Obama warned that the Democratic Party is a mess ahead of the 2028 presidential election, due to not knowing what they stand for.
Jim Messina explained to Axios that while Democrats are planning to rely on voters’ frustrations with President Donald Trump and his administration to pick up additional seats in the upcoming midterm elections, that is not enough to win the presidency.
Meanwhile, David Plouffe warned that Democrats are not ready to win “in what are now red states in neutral and even challenging environments.”
“The midterms are going to be 85-90% driven by voter opposition to Trump and maybe 10-15% based on what Dems stand for,” Messina said.
Plouffe said, “Democrats for the next decade have to be able to win elections in what are now red states in neutral and even challenging environments. That is the test.”
“Anyone who thinks we are ready to do that is spending too much time inhabiting a political world that does not exist,” Plouffe replied.
