The path for Democrats is very clear: have good ideas, believe in them, state them clearly, stick to them, act decisively in support of these ideas, speak to the young half of the electorate, support other democrats who do these things. Follow Mamdani and Lander's example or fade into nothingness.

My strategic advice for Democrats when it comes to reaching non-voters is to not make every election feel like a battle between your landlord and his handyman who never actually fixes anything

One definite advantage of being a conservative is that you never have to trouble your conscience about selling out; a conservative is a sell-out from the beginning, an ass-kisser and power sycophant by definition.

I don’t need your praise
to survive. I was here first,
before you were here, before
you ever planted a garden.
And I’ll be here when only the sun and moon
are left, and the sea, and the wide field.

I will constitute the field.

With each disaster, it is important to say: This is happening because it makes some people rich, and those people are planning to escape on their own lifeboat without you.
