Under pressure, the DNC finally released its autopsy of the 2024 election, after rampant speculation about what it contained and why it hadn’t yet been made public.
Under pressure, the, after rampant speculation about what it contained and why it hadn’t yet been made public. It turns out that it’s a thoroughly unimpressive, unfinished document that, in the sheer incompetence in its drafting and handling, says more about the low state of the current Democratic Party than any of its analysis.maintains he delayed so long because he didn’t want to create a distraction by releasing a poorly done report, which sounds like a typical Washington excuse for hiding something.
Once everyone saw the report, they realized Martin was right about the embarrassingly poor handiwork of his own outfit. At the start, the autopsy contains a disclaimer that “the DNC was not provided with the underlying sourcing, interviews, or supporting data for many of the assertions contained herein and therefore cannot independently verify the claims presented.
”That said, the report acknowledges that Democrats are out of touch and too dependent on the Republicans making poor candidate choices . It notes how Trump’s they/them ad hitting Kamala Harris on trans issues was devastating and unanswerable.
It recognizes that Harris didn’t do enough to separate herself from Biden and make an affirmative case for herself rather thanOn the other hand, it fails to grapple with the issues of inflation and immigration . These were the two biggest substantive issues in the election, while the autopsy also whiffs on Biden’s age and his catastrophic poor judgment in trying to run for re-election.
Although our expectations for honesty in such documents shouldn’t be too high. What was the report going to say?
That Democrats disgraced themselves by pretending that Biden was fit for a second term, and only shifted course when he got exposed in the first debate, and then had no alternative but to turn to a charmless non-entity as a last-minute substitute?won the presidency in 2016 by taking the recommendations of the GOP autopsy after its 2012 election defeat and basically doing the opposite. Democrats may be rudderless and increasingly extreme, but that doesn’t mean they won’t have a good election night this coming November.
Usually, a party that has just lost the White House rises or falls in the midterms based on the incumbent president’s job approval, rather than its own political creativity or inherent appeal. As for winning the White House, that typically depends on nominating someone who is charismatic and fresh, who has an unexpected approach to politics, and who develops a new coalition — think Barack ObamaNone of this comes about by having a political strategist talk to a bunch of people about the immediate past election and write a long report about it.
Needless to say, Democrats should be grateful that the stakes of their autopsy are so low — since they couldn’t even bring themselves to finish it.
