For the attempts within the DP to patch up the party's coattails!

It seems that within the Democratic Party, delaying and buying time to avoid the responsibility of the leadership and political leaders for the electoral disaster of the May 11 elections is no longer working.

Berisha himself, with the will that characterizes him, is keeping alive every day with press conferences the fable of the "Rama Farce", which, although it was essential in these elections, no longer holds as the only alibi to justify the incompetence, degradation, capture, political immorality and powerlessness of this opposition, (non-functional says the latest EC report), to defeat the "Ramaduro Regime" with votes. Therefore, in recent days we are seeing important voices within the DP, who are seeking a destruction of the leadership status quo even though they do not dare to mention the name of the leader of the leadership, Sali Berisha.

Some are calling it "deep reform", others "Poltore no. 2", but everyone seems to be looking for some "sacrifices" with specific names, on which the historic failure of the DP in the last elections is expected to be projected, from which it emerged with at least 250 thousand votes short of the previous ones of 2021, when it was led by the leadership of Lulzim Basha. The "sacrifices" could be Gazmend Bardhi with the shrunken group that is left to him, it could be Flamur Noka with Albana Vokshi, or all of them together.

This action or this "Re-establishment No. 2", (This time for real, as it is being articulated), would in fact stir the swamp, would "destroy" the current leadership structure of the DP, but with just that, would a return of the DP be possible as an alternative moral, hopeful force, in complete contrast to "Ramaduron", if this "revolution" within the DP is also carried out with the permission and under the control of Berishism, as a political philosophy and technique and tactic, which we have seen several times during these 4 years?!

"Creative destruction" which is intended to be launched this fall within the DP is a term borrowed from economics, originally used by economist Joseph Schumpeter in the 1940s to describe the process through which innovations and new economic developments replace old models. That is, existing structures are destroyed to make way for new technologies.
In politics, this concept is used metaphorically to describe cases when leadership, crises or radical changes "destroy" the existing political order or structures, in order to create a new order. This can happen through revolutions, deep reforms, or even reorganization of institutions.

"Creative destruction" can also be used in a positive sense, to describe fundamental transformations within a political party or a system that aim for improvement and modernization. But is this likely to be the case in the Berisha-led DP and according to Berishism?

In this (positive) sense, it implies the dismantling of old, ineffective, or corrupt structures to make way for new ideas, practices, and leadership. For example:

- A political party that reforms from within by replacing the old elite with new figures and more open and democratic policies can be described as a case of "creative destruction".

The term is also used by reformers and technocrats in transition countries to describe the transformation from authoritarian systems to democracies or planned economies to free markets.

When used with vision and prudence, "creative destruction" is a way to build better on the ruins of the old.
But in fact, in the Democratic Party, neither destruction nor creativity is happening. The situation is stuck between the old conflict and the fear of real change. The elites are the same, the ideas are the same, and any attempt at transformation turns into a struggle for personal power, not a collective vision.

A creative destruction in the DP would require:
- Voluntary resignations by worn-out figures.
- Acceptance of losses and honest analysis.
- New leaders, not from the old "reserve generation", but with a modern vision.
- A new narrative, not only related to anti-SP or anti-Rama.

But this does not happen because no one will give ground. Therefore, the impasse continues as in a trap, in a vicious circle: a PD that needs dialectics, that cries out for total reformation, that groans to be totally different from Rama's PS, but that appears like an old jacket that is always taken to the same tailor (Berisha), to be patched, or at best to turn back the same material, which temporarily looks like "new". Therefore, whether with "Foltore 2", or with "Ritthemelim prej svetniti", if the jacket will always hang on the nail-Berisha, the languishing and shrinking of the PD will never stop!
