Short Summary
- Democrats lost more than 1,000 state legislative seats due to a focus mismatch.

- Republicans executed a long game focused locally, achieving dominant control over courts and redistricting.
This segment dissects former President Obama's acknowledgment of complacency while Roland Martin provides receipts on why that complacency was systematic, driven by prioritizing national politics over essential state-level infrastructure building, particularly in crucial states like Texas.

I dont understand the reasoning for slamming obama ! I remember when the voters didn’t get out and vote that primary election and that is when they lost the seats. help understand.
Why is Obama the first and last president to be judged by his party's state level performance. ?
You should not put it all on one man to save Democrats. The problem is much deeper and goes back centuries.
Chill, Mr. Martin. What would you suggest we do now? Obama was bomb. I don't love him, I respect the hell out of him. He was blocked on every turn. What would you have done in the same position?
Instead of blaming Obama !’ Do something!!
Together we can make it. Division isn’t going to work for any of us.
OK, we know the historical lesson of why we are where we are. What are some of the solutions that we can do to get out of this situation? That’s what I wanna know.
This. We've definitely been ignoring local elections, period.
Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me. God is watching
So how do we move forward? Enough blaming because we are all losing right now.
