“How’s the Democratic Party’s ground game in Pennsylvania?” I asked a friend several weeks before the 2024 presidential election. He replied optimistically that there were far more door knockers this year than in 2022.
It turned out these door knockers were just urging a vote for the Democrats without putting forth a compelling agenda attached to candidate commitments on issues that mean something to people where they live, work, and raise their families. There was no Democratic Party “Compact for the American People.” Then-President Joe Biden visited Pennsylvania, which went Republican, many times, with his most memorable message being that he grew up in Scranton.
…
Their aversion to building their own momentum to answer the basic questions “Whose side are you on?” and “What does the Democratic Party stand for?” remains as pathetic as it was in 2022 and 2024.
There’s no tease in that and you’re right to ask for more information, it’s called ouroboros, you can look it up as “ouroboros symbol”. Republican and Democratic parties, despite appearing as opposites, are actually part of a single, self-sustaining system (“controlled opposition”). Now, that doesn’t mean it’s always been that way, but infiltrating both parties during many years can set a scene for this to play out perfectly. They don’t care about laws, rulers, or anything of those sorts (they are the ones printing money and distributing power). Presidents, governors, etc are not “controlled” as in per se (or at least not all of them), but once they reach that position they are limited by the very system they are ruling, and that system is already controlled by a single “party” (to call it so) which has people on both sides. People who meet and drink at the same table, visit the same islands, do the same degeneracy, so on and so forth.
