It is totally about ideas and whose ideas are better or better received.

Graboyes stated that the purpose of this piece was to offer unsolicited advice to those who are failing miserably at the task of persuasion. A politician has to persuade voters to vote for them and their party's platform. You don't tend to win elections by calling the opposition names. You win by having better ideas for government policy. High inflation, open borders, men in women's sports and locker rooms, defund the police, criminals turned loose by liberal prosecutors and AGs all tainted the Democrat brand. Biden failed in his 4 years, and the Democrats offered up nothing new. Their primary campaign strategy "rule" was to offer up vociferous condemnation of Trump, with the promise of another 4 years like the previous 4 years. Only for some unknown reason, an even better 4 more years. It obviously didn't fly. These facts have been covered time and again by a large number of both the left and the right's political pundits. What Graboyes states is plain, simple, and logical. Failure to heed any of his advice will very likely result in future Democrat losses. "If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?"
