So that means the progressives will break off and form a real leftist party right?
Right?
Yes they will be moving to the right. Wait. Nooooo
DNC sucks. They only care about lining their pockets. They need to go down. They will go down.
If you support an establishment democrat you are part of the problem
True, but the way I see it elections are largely a game of name recognition.
Love or hate Trump, people know his name.
Harris only had 3 months to campaign and still almost beat Trump.
Sure, major cities can handle a quick turnaround, but the rest of the country needs a full year of campaigning to accept a candidate.
Trump's win isn't the mandate he thinks it is and Harris' loss isn't as damning as people make it out to be either.
I am absolutely shocked to hear this.
Democrats would rather lose than let Progressives lead the way.
They would rather gather the money needed to be able to effectively campaign than pursue policies designed to reign in campaigns costing so much. Wouldn't it be nice if we legally defined our election season to the formerly traditional end of February to November of the year of your offices' election?
In a last-minute move, they shut the event off from the public and even deliberately shared the wrong address for where grassroots supporters are allowed to gather."
Lol, we're fucked
The Democrats are over. If we ever even get the chance to vote again, a new progressive, actually left party must rise in its place
If there ever was a time to criticize the democrats, it is 3 months AFTER an election.
If there ever was a time to not to criticize the democrats, it is 3 months BEFORE an election.
If there was ever a time for the DNC to listen to voters, it was at any point in time.
Do not hold back on them, hold them accountable and demand better. “We will apply pressure but back off when it’s actually meaningful” is a terrible strategy.
They cannot hope to gain the support of voters unless they make it clear they are interested in their voters.
there has to be a real fear of losing something, otherwise there's no pressure to change. they will never change voluntarily. and after they win/lose an election there is zero pressure to do anything
the best time to criticize is in the immediate lead up to an election
And by don't criticize them before the election, he means the 2077 election. Give them time to figure things out, guys.
