Democrats finally released their long-awaited 2024 election autopsy \u2014 and it reads less like a postmortem on President Donald Trump<\/span><\/span> and more like a realization that voters may simply not like them anymore.<\/p>\n

Buried inside the 192-page report are some brutal admissions about former Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic brand, and the party\u2019s growing disconnect from average Americans.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe sad truth is Democrats have lost ground at every level from inconsistent messaging and improper planning, even as the policies the Party advances continue to earn voter support at the ballot box,\u201d .<\/span><\/p>\n

The document repeatedly suggests Democrats leaned way too heavily on \u201cTrump bad\u201d messaging while failing to give voters a compelling reason to vote for<\/i> Harris. One especially rough section says Harris struggled to define herself beyond \u201cnot Trump\u201d and \u201cprosecutor vs. felon,\u201d putting blame on the Biden White House.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe national campaign did not effectively drive Trump\u2019s negatives, and the White House did not effectively support Vice President Harris over three and half years to improve her standing before the candidate switch,\u201d the report said. \u201cThe idea Trump\u2019s negatives were \u201cbaked in\u201d is a major failure of analysis and reality\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The autopsy also openly acknowledges that Harris had a significant issue with male voters.<\/p>\n

One section, titled \u201cThe Male Voter Problem,\u201d points out that down-ballot Democrats consistently outperformed Harris with men. North Carolina Democrat Josh Stein, for example, won 51% of male voters while Harris managed just 40%.<\/p>\n

And it gets worse.<\/p>\n

The autopsy admits Harris struggled badly with young men, Latino men, irregular voters, rural voters, and working-class Americans. At one point, the report flatly says Democrats suffered from a \u201cpersistent inability or unwillingness to listen to all voters.\u201d Another section warns that millions of Americans \u201cdo not see themselves reflected in the America of the Democratic Party.\u201d<\/p>\n

There are also some surprisingly direct shots at identity politics.<\/p>\n

One passage praises candidates who focused \u201cless on abstract issues and identity politics\u201d and more on public safety, affordability, housing, and the economy.<\/p>\n

The report found that the Trump attack ads were highly effective, particularly the \u201cKamala is for they\/them\u201d spot, with Democratic pollsters noting the campaign was effectively boxed in by footage of her own remarks showing Harris out of touch with voters focused on their pocketbooks.<\/span><\/p>\n

The document repeatedly undercuts itself in real time with editor notes and annotations like \u201cNo evidence provided,\u201d \u201cAnalysis not supported,\u201d and \u201cContradicts public reporting.\u201d<\/p>\n

DNC chair Ken Martin defended releasing the report after delaying it for months, telling CNN: \u201cAfter last November\u2019s massive Democratic wins, I didn\u2019t want to create a distraction, but by not putting the report out, I ended up creating an even bigger distraction.\u201d<\/p>\n

With nationwide redistricting underway, the report fired bleak warning shots for Democrats as more Americans continue fleeing blue states and voting with their feet.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe future could become even more difficult. Demographic and population projections indicate an accelerating population shift away from traditionally Democratic states,\u201d the report states. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWith radical midterm redistricting efforts underway, the writing is on the wall, and the call is coming from inside the House. We either adapt to the changing conditions of the arena, or history will leave us behind.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
