Oh absolutely. Republicans are worthless pieces of human garbage, BUT they are both well coordinated and know exactly how to speak to their base to get them riled up. This is how they get results.

Democrats are like wrangling cats. Democrats are more willing to attack their own than to attack the common enemy (i.e. the GOP). Republicans are focused on a few key issues and they are willing to take years and years to finally get their way (look at RoevWade). Democrats are all over the goddamn place, have zero focus and unless their candidate can get them the results they want in a few weeks into their term in office, they quickly lose interest.

Also Dems are god awful at communicating with voters. They have no clue about messaging - the economy is shockingly strong, wages have had their largest gains in decades, interest rates are still at historic lows, the unemployment rate is at unfathomably low levels, and lots of manufacturing is coming back to the US, and yet even with all that Dems are constantly moping about the economy and not selling the successes of this administration. Contrast that with when George W Bush had that “Mission Accomplished” banner made just a few months into the Iraq war - a war that lasted years and years after W’s speech.

I have nothing good to say about Republican policies, and yet their tactics are usually brilliant. On the flip side, I agree with most Democratic policies, and yet their tactics are utterly clueless as well as spineless. It is infuriating to watch.
