It has been answered already. Drop special interest and focus on big ticket items. Let us use an example. Liberals get excited about green energy. What middle America hears is "increased regulation, loss of jobs and cost of good increase." Green energy DOES NOT resonant with middle America. If you want to argue it should, fair enough, but that isn't reality. This is just one example. There are plenty of others.  ÂÂ

The problem is more that middle America isn't connecting with reality.
The reality is the best days are behind us. The Democrats seem to try to find a way to navigate the looming energy/water/environmental/refugee crises. The Republicans get the vote on promising the impossible, traveling back in time.
Education has failed in the USA and things will only get harder. Sticking your head in the sand and build a wall around it isn't going to solve anything.

I don't personally disagree but let me ask you this. How are liberals going to create legislative change when they don't hold office? At some point you have to win. And to be clear, I do not personally agree with the following, but middle America hates things such as easy citizenship, reparation talks, gun control discussion, mpg mandates, CRT, debt forgiveness, trans in sports, etc., etc.
Lose the battle but win the war is something liberals need to wrap their head around. Liberals will never hold power as long as they push things middle America hates. That my friend, is REALITY.
