With all due respect, it's kind rich having a bunch of ex-republcans giving advice, when their own party got hijacked by a literal fascist who preaches basically the same stuff the party have been pushing for DECADES, but Trump just says it out loud, and with no filter.

I've heard some Democrats saying things similar to what ex-Republicans are saying
And it's logically inconsistent to say the party was "hijacked" and simultaneously say the party was always pushing the same things as the hijacker. And how does a party "push" things it doesn't actually talk about?
Trumpers have been quite open in their belief that they killed off the old GOP and now it's a MAGA party. That isn't just the base. It's also the 'intellectual" wing that boasts about transforming "conservatism" into a counterrevolutionary movement.
The view among some Dems seems to be: 'We were always right about everything. The GOP was always wrong and evil." And if Dems lose an election, it can't possibly mean that anything in their message or platform fell short in appealing to the political center that decides elections.
It's a lot more productive to ask: "How can we be more persuasive to voters who saw something appealing in what the MAGA GOP was offering?"
I'm not a Dem, and haven't been for more than a decade. They don't learn from fiascos like Gore and Hillary, they just point fingers at third parties.
Americans have become entitled assholes, who expect everything for free. And Trump promises exactly that, since tariffs will pay for everything -- including child care and IVF for everybody!
