Relying on voters, per se (the ostensible mechanism of a democracy), is certainly not the strategy the Democratic Party's power players are relying upon. It didn't work, already, in 2016. Relying on voters to properly absorb the propaganda against Trump was a major screw-up, and it will never happen again.

They made their 2020 strategies far more robust, and that is an understatement. It worked. Well, the bottom line did, anyway. To take just one example (never mind the November election), look at what happened to the slate of candidates in the days before Super Tuesday, just hanging out there in the open, for us deer in the headlights.

So that's what they'll be doing again, as and however, and wherever necessary; voters are beside the point, they're just annoying cockroaches to be "exterminated", but without it looking like that's what's happening. "We’re history’s actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do."
