  • At the end of that decade, it was overthrown by the Reagan Revolution, which expanded individual liberties on the strength of a conservative free-market ideology, until it in turn crashed against the 2008 financial crisis.

The article from MSN, titled "The End of Democratic Delusions," discusses the current state of the Democratic Party in the U.S., highlighting a sense of disillusionment among its supporters. It points out that despite the Democrats' efforts to mobilize voters through various issues like climate change, abortion rights, and opposition to Trump, there's a growing realization that these efforts might not be as effective as hoped. The piece critiques the party's strategy, suggesting that Democrats have been living in a "fantasy" where they believed that simply highlighting the dangers of Trump and Republican policies would suffice to secure victories. It mentions the failure to pass significant legislation, the ongoing issues with voter turnout, and the internal conflicts within the party, particularly around identity politics and economic policies. The article argues that Democrats need to confront these realities, adapt their strategies, and perhaps focus more on tangible policy achievements rather than relying on the fear of the opposition to win elections.
