The article explained with facts why it was not achievable.

Obama tried but was not all-powerful like Trump in his single term.

The Democrats themselves have divisions that reflect local conservative populations like West Virginia. We all need to thank Gawd for Joe Manchin in a red state, and other Blue Dog Dems -- but they are often pains in our liberal arses and subject to ugly attacks from the left that could return seats to red if we aren't careful.

While some Dems are going far left with rhetoric, Pete Buttigieg is probably the King of centrists in the Administration now, speaking for middle America so-to-speak.

If we want change and not continued political war, we need to find a place to make it safe for Red Dog republicans to break away, again requiring serious political chops by the Democratic Party leadership.

The trends of conservative "LatinX" voters in various regions are also a big concern going into 2022-24.
