James,
just-released analysis by Nate Silver makes
clear that the tectonic shift which erupted on November 5th could deliver
victory to the Republicans in election and after election:

About half of Biden’s 2020 voters who stayed home in 2024 appear to have
backed Trump this year - Nate Silver

Bernie put the reason plainly: Democrats have abandoned working-class
families. But many Democratic leaders are refusing to confront the
widespread rejection of the current Democratic party to avoid upsetting
billionaire donors and entrenched interests.

Many of us are exhausted and frustrated, but as Bernie says: despair is
not an option. The work starts now.

The Our Revolution team is scrambling everything to build inside and
outside support to comprehensively transform the party. This means banning
dark money and holding consultants accountable, building the bench by
recruiting dozens of working-class candidates for races across the country
in 2025, all while preparing to stop Trump’s attacks on Medicare, Social
Security, and crucial safety-nets for American families.

Many Democrats are burying their heads in the sand, avoiding the
fundamental rejection that’s just taken place. Sitting around and waiting
for a ‘mid-term backlash’ will not bring them back to power.

They have completely misunderstood what’s happening in this country, which
Bernie pointed out BEFORE the election and AFTER the election:

“It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has
abandoned working-class people would find that the working-class has
abandoned them…While the Democratic Party leadership defends the status
quo, the American people are angry and want change.”

Waiting around for a midterm backlash is not a strategy that will win back
the trust and votes of working families who, as Nate Silver highlights,
“were more concerned by pocketbook issues than democracy or abortion
rights.”

There is an enormous task ahead of us to get the DNC to adopt a
transformative progressive platform that puts working-class families
first, kicks billionaire dark money out of the party, and recruits
working-class candidates up and down the ballot. Our political team will
be focusing on hundreds of local races and building up progressive
majorities in cities that can protect our communities (sanctuary cities,
LGBTQ+, and others).

It is going to be a slog, and much of this work will happen out of the
spotlight and headlines of the day — but it is absolutely essential if
we’re going to create a party and a platform that will beat the GOP and
deliver for poor and working people.
