Totally agree with everything you've said.
As one who does not have an average IQ, but did get some college in years ago, struggled in school, barely graduated HS and voted for Regan in my first election as an 18 year old, and later in either the late 80's, or early 90's we decided to go Democratic, rather than Republicans due to how the Republican party was then, riding roughshod over the Democratic party, and the Dems at that point in time, allowed it as they rolled over and let the Republicans run over them.
I'm also neurodivergent and can see through most BS and saw Trump for who/what he is as he's clearly coming across as a petulant man-child of about 8 in an adult body, but a lot of the rhetoric he's been coming up with, like Project 2025 could very well be red herrings (hope so). I do see Jen's point that the Democratic party spoke over most folks heads, though to be fair, I don't think Kamala, nor Tim did so much, but the rest of the party, outside of Jamie Raskin and a few others, but the overall message was, white, upper class, college educated and not to the majority of working class, middle class folks and thus, failed to connect.
I voted for Harris/Walz, BTW as I didn't trust, let alone can't stand Trump, so there is that, let alone Vance and his weirdness.
Agree, time to self reflect and then figure out what is next and begin the blow back/push back and start the slow process to right the ship to keep it from sinking into the abyss.
