They refused to change with the times or let the younger generation take over. They wanted to keep their power and stay in the past so badly that they don’t even know what the people they represent want anymore and are out of touch. Some of these Democrats have been in office longer than the younger voters have even been alive. They shunned progressives like Bernie just so they could keep things the way they are. Mamdani was inevitable.
This is something that I have noticed over the past decade. It’s not just the Republicans that want to go back to the “good old days” and stay in the past as long as possible. The difference is that Republicans will force things to go back while Democrats would drag their feet as long as possible so that things don’t change. It’s why we’ve needed younger people on both sides for over 20 years. Just to put it into perspective, if you are over the age of 70 there’s a good chance that you didn’t even have color TV when you were a kid. Brown vs. The Board of Education that ruled segregation in schools was unconstitutional happened in 1954. Trump was about 8 years old when that happened.
