Are Democrats looking into the real reasons why they are not winning elections? Listening to and reading posts from Democrats and their advocates, it does not seem like it.

Can democrats win elections as long as they hold on to their neoliberal values?

The current sentiment suggests that Democrats may struggle to win elections if they continue to adhere to neoliberal values.

Critics argue that the party has turned its back on a populist base that seeks real change in areas like healthcare, fair wages, and corporate accountability (Ref ID: 2).

Additionally, there are concerns that neoliberal elements within the party could lead to a form of fascism, which could alienate voters (Ref ID: 1).

Thus, for Democrats to succeed, they may need to reconsider their approach and align more closely with progressive values that resonate with a broader electorate.

While I didn't listen to the podcast, I've long believed that kayfabe is the correct lens to understand Trump and his support. It's why fact checking Trump is irrelevant. You have to beat him by telling a more compelling story.
