After President-elect Donald Trump's resounding victory in the Electoral College and the popular vote, it is apparent now more than ever that Democrats have become a tone-deaf party that just lectures in lieu of "listening," according to former New York Democrat Gov. David Patterson.

"We've got to kind of tear up all the information that we have now and start going out and start listening to the people, hearing what they're saying, as opposed to lecturing, which I think the party has gotten into too often," Patterson told "The Cats Roundtable" on WABC 770 AM-N.Y.

And it has continued in Vice President Kamala Harris' Howard University concession speech that was more of a "graduation speech," a day late and coming up short, Patterson said to host John Catsimatidis.
