Dems Mull $20 Million Plan To Figure Out Why Young Men Don’t Like Them
Six months after a stinging nationwide rejection that handed Donald Trump a commanding reelection and fractured their core coalition, the Democratic Party is turning to a new solution: spending $20 million to figure out why young men don’t like them.
Six months after a stinging nationwide rejection that handed Donald Trump a commanding reelection and fractured their core coalition, the Democratic Party is turning to a new solution: spending $20 million to figure out why young men don’t like them.
The project, codenamed SAM — short for “Speaking with American Men: A Strategic Plan” – is described in a prospectus obtained by the New York Times. It outlines a massive push to decode the language and culture of disaffected young men, particularly in online spaces, and includes a proposal to buy ads inside video games.
“Above all, we must shift from a moralizing tone,” the document urges.
Focus groups show the branding problem is dire. One Georgia man recently summed it up succinctly: “A deer in headlights.” According to messaging consultant Anat Shenker-Osorio, Democrats are consistently described in her focus groups as “sloths,” “tortoises,” and now, apparently, roadkill.
“You stand there and you see the car coming,” the man explained. “But you’re going to stand there and get hit with it anyway.”
Democratic leaders are scrambling to reassemble a coalition that used to be rock-solid: young voters, working-class Americans, Latinos, and Black voters all shifted toward Trump in 2024 – and this time, he won the popular vote, too.
“There is fear, there is anxiety, and there are very real questions about the path forward – all of which I share,” said Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO), who is charged with recruiting candidates to help win back the House in 2026. “We are losing support in vast swaths of the country.”
Even the long-standing gender gap, which typically favored Democrats, flipped in key districts as men swung harder to the right. It’s one of the driving reasons behind the $20 million SAM initiative.
Meanwhile, the party is facing open rebellion from within. Progressive activists are outraged at what they see as a lack of fight. Moderate Democrats are openly warning that cultural messaging – on issues like immigration, gender, and economic elitism – is alienating the very voters the party once claimed as its base.
“We’ve pushed, in so many ways, these people away from our party,” Crow said.
Former DNC Chair Jaime Harrison, who stepped down in February, admitted “The party has to find ways to compete in states where it’s not.”
But instead of barnstorming in battleground counties, Democratic donors are reportedly huddling in luxury hotels, commissioning focus groups and digital rebrand efforts that – to some – look more like anthropology than campaigning.
Democratic pollster Zac McCrary said Trump’s declining approval ratings may create openings in 2026, but warned against reading too much into a potential midterm bounce.
“A good 2026 midterm – we should not let that mask a deeper problem,” McCrary said, adding that the party’s brand is ‘repellent’ in so much of the country.’
He blamed a credibility gap: “Democrats have lost credibility by being seen as alien on cultural issues.”
For many in the party’s activist and base circles, the appetite for bold messaging and confrontation remains strong.
“Voters are hungry for people to actually stand up for them – or get caught trying,” said Shenker-Osorio. “The party is doing a lot of navel-gazing and not enough full-belly acting.”
Whether Democrats will rediscover their spine, or waste millions more studying why they don’t have one, remains to be seen.”
Because the majority of young men aren’t voting for them.
They’re voting Republican.
For some, the reasons seem obvious, for the ultra-polarized left, they just have no clue.
But then who are the majority of men that vote left and what are they like?
Here are some entertaining reasons men, and even young men vote democratic.

I loved this article and expecially the videos. The lefties (including the one above here) like to obsess about definitions and the difference between a socialist and a communist. I’m going to help him with this because he obviously sees some redeeming value in socialism when there is none. Socialism is just communism lite. It is a gateway drug to full on communism. History is replete with the pied piper of communism convincing the weak minded, the something for nothing crowd, and the naieve that their life would be better if they just vote to take from the rich and give to the poor, and these idiots think they are all poor. All totalitarian socieities eventually self destruct and they kill off all their socialist supporters because when they finally wake up and rebel against their new fearless leader.
He is right about one thing though. We are not a democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic, something which seems to have escaped this genius. There are good people and evil people here just like any other country, and we have rich and poor also, neither of which is exclusively left or right. The US is not perfect of course, but socialism is not the answer. Socialism is the reason we are on the brink of national bankruptcy and it is the socialist/democrat/communists that have pulled out all the stops to keep the US from uncovering corruption and waste in the federal government and sending illegal aliens back where they came from. This is not suprising. They voted for Mr. potato head and approve of his policies to destroy the country. You would think these “compassionate” people would want to preserve the financial integrity and way of life we have in the strongest most succesful country the world has ever known, but they don’t. I guess I should not be suprised. But then, you would need a brain, something they do not seem to posess. You would think that 36+ trillion dollars of debt would gain their attention, but they are either to stupid or to evil to care. Unfortunately, I don’t see much of this changing. The evil and the stupid have teamed up to bring this nation down and they have a good head start. Democrats are starting to eat there own so that is a good sign, and many losers have awakend from their fasination with a socialist utopia and voted for Trump so there is still hope. No nation is perfect, but the USA is as close as it comes if you like freedom. If you don’t like freedom, this is not the country for you. Consider getting your communist ass on a plane and leaving…
For one thing, the MAGA right-winger doesn’t know the difference between communism and socialism. Labeling socialists “weak men” when right-wingers support our existing oligarchy that is using them and stealing from them is comical. Due to their limited brain capacity, they are merely pawns and easily manipulated. They think billionaires like Elon Musk are gods. However, anybody who spent an hour on X last year during campaign season knew Elon wasn’t very bright.
Elon’s DOGE target of “waste, fraud, and abuse” has shifted from an initial goal of $2 trillion to $1 trillion, and now his target is $150 billion. LOL However, I recall his interview on Joe Rogan, where he claimed the federal government was full of waste and that it would be easy for DOGE to find at least $2 trillion. LOL
Therefore, I expected him to start DOGE in the CIA, NSA, DoD, etc. You know, the Deep State that Trump always talks about. However, he didn’t touch those departments at all. Did he target all the abuse and stealing from Medicare by companies and doctor groups? Nope, not going to look there either. Instead, he targeted the poor recipients and federal civil servant employees. WTF? That’s not the Deep State!!!
We aren’t a democracy and haven’t been since our inception. The last time I read a history book, we were ruled by an English Theocratic Monarchy, but we revolted from them. Our leaders who wrote the US Constitution and Bill of Rights were slave owning oligarchs. “We the people” was a marketing concept designed to encourage agrarians to support the federal and state governments. However, both of the governmental bodies were controlled by oligarchs who feared the people (democracy).
After FDR came to power, popular campaigns ended. And so did the power of unions. He had a chance to shrink capitalism once and for all, but he fell short. He made a deal with the oligarchs to maintain their power and control over the country. He should have ended their reign and put the people in charge, with unions and the people running the show.
The divide-and-conquer strategy has been employed for centuries by leaders because it is effective. It’s worked well in this country to keep the people divided. Hasn’t anyone questioned why we have a so-called “left and right media system?” The truth doesn’t care about your political beliefs. And who owns the media in this country? The oligarchs who mainly own “entertainment complexes.” That should be a hint…
