Exactly. You know what I would like to see? I would like to see the Democratic Party act like parties due in many countries. The norm internationally is that if you are running a party, and that party loses catastrophically, that it is your moral responsibility to give up the reigns of that party. You had your chance. It didn't work. There are plenty of people out there with good ideas. Your opinions will still be welcome. Or, for a corporate example, if you're a CEO, and you crash the company's stock, you're usually going to lose your job.

Anyone in a top-20 leadership position of Democrats in 2024 should simply be done with running things. They can't run as candidates. They can't serve party leadership roles. They can't serve on party committees. They can only participate as a regular party member.

That's how the party should be run. One strike and you're out. Let the strong survive. We want the party to be a god-damned thunderdome.
