‘No longer the party of Obama’: Democrats search for answers as standard-bearer’s influence wanes

President-elect Donald Trump not only defeated Vice President Kamala Harris last week, he also defeated former President Barack Obama.

Obama, who campaigned hard for Harris, told the public the 2024 election was a choice, not between policies, but between values and character.

But with Trump’s decisive 312 to 226 Electoral College victory, secured, in part, by Trump becoming the first Republican since former President George W. Bush in 2004 to win the popular vote, this time by almost three million votes, the public’s choice is clear.

That choice has decimated the Democratic Party, which is poised to remain powerless in Washington, D.C., until at least 2026, and has severely undermined the legacy of its defacto leader, Obama.

After he irrevocably changed the Republican Party with his win eight years ago, the political destruction wrought by Trump in 2024 has resulted in Democrats now having to regroup, with many members urging the party to search for new leadership, not rely on its leaders of the past.

He was incapable of leading when he occupied the White House.  What makes anyone think he can lead outside of it?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-
