Because if the plan is “we will simply not lose another Presidential election for 16 years,” this plan is naive and unworkable. What I want from Democrats is the equivalent of a Project 2025, but from our side.

I feel like Republicans have been on this type of forward-thinking, party-wide, big platform push to wipe out civil rights consistently since absorbing the Dixiecrats, while Democrats complacently behave as if the end of history has been reached.

Please enjoy your one choice voting system for the next 16 years. We're sure this won't make the democrats somehow more complacent and useless.

Biden's original Build Back Better agenda, planned with a lot of help from Warren and Sanders and their economists, was a pretty great first draft of the domestic policy side. It would have locked in the struggles against inequality and climate change for the next 40 years, like the New Deal.

We have their evil vision. It’s 800+ pages of “mu ha ha ha!” on basically every issue that matters, in detail. I want the Democrats to have the same goddamn thing, in the same painstaking detail.

Dems are very afraid if they laid out things like - DC statehood - PR statehood - Supreme Court reform It would get turned into the 'main story' which isn't entirely unfounded because Fox controls US political discussions, but hell they'd attack you for anything so why walk on eggshells

god, yes please. It's not enough to just go "well as long as we have the Senate and the Presidency maybe we can shift the USSC and also keep appointing judges elsewhere", we need shovel-ready legislation on hand! the best time to work out the details of next year's bill is *today*.

This, a million times, THIS. For example: Waiting on SCOTUS to finish radicalizing the rest of the population is not a plan. I want Dem Congressional candidates to lay out a court reform plan (30 extra justices, rotating case assignments). I know Biden won’t go along with it - but scare them.

Exactly. Because "don't lose any presidentaial elections, and win the Senate sometimes too" does seem to be the current plan, at least as far as the Supreme Court is concerned, and that is definitely not going to work.

THIS. You know how you reassure voters who are balking at voting for Dems? You show them a detailed plan and the groundwork already in progress!!! They're only 'better than Trump' because they don't actively try to make things worse, but never FIX anything. Prove you know how to use a mandate!!!

Democrats put way much emphasis on the presidential election and not enough on the school board etc. ones where the real harms are done.
