Democrats are in retreat as they head into this election year. In a stark display of the party’s lack of confidence in its prospects in November’s midterms, 29 House Democrats have announced that they won’t be running for reelection. Given the party’s razor-thin majorities, Joe Biden’s sinking popularity, and the fact that the party of the sitting president almost always suffers losses in midterm elections, it looks as though the Democrats are going to get eviscerated if they don’t quickly change course. Some prominent lawmakers, like Senator Bernie Sanders, have publicly called for a change in strategy, saying that the Democratic Party has “turned its back on the working class.” But the Biden administration remains deeply in denial about its failures, which range from the death of the Democrats’ signature Build Back Better plan to their doomed year- long push for federal voting rights legislation.

The Democrat's failure is because they can't even cooperate with reasonable Democrats, like Manchin or Sinema. Those two are presented as the "only holdouts", but that's not true. There are another 10 Democrats who would HAVE TO stand up, if Manchin weren't doing it so effectively.

The far Left has grabbed the reins of power in the Democrat party, but even the Democrats are not going to actually DO what they want.

They don't have the majority of the Senate - as it stands, they are at 52-48, but they speak as though they do.

Net result: they simply lose. Then they lose. And they lose again.

They do have media on their side, that is a powerful weapon.

The RAT-media can pretend Biden and his Marxist Agenda is all cool as snot, but the reality is what it is, and WeThePeople will continue to gravitate towards news sources that don't repeatedly LIE to our faces, then call US deplorable for not heeding their call...MUD

The media have driven the Democrats so far left that they've lost the people.
