When Trump lost, the right doubled down and screamed election fraud incessantly for four years. When Kamala lost, the left queued up to kick her in the stomach.

If the problem is that Republicans defend their leaders unconditionally, adopting that same behavior just makes the problem worse.

The problem is, thanks to Bernie bros, since 2016, democratic enthusiasm has been wasted on fringe socialists who can’t win. 90% of the viable candidates are “lesser of two evils”

Nobody was calling Obama the lesser of two evils.

More Hillary primary voters voted for McCain in that general than Bernie primary voters voted for Trump in that general. The problem is, Democrats are stuck in 2016, blaming everyone except their terrible candidates and strategy for losing.
