    Yup. Democratic leadership would rather trump win than run a left-facing campaign and candidate. What’s the definition of insanity?

      100%

      Here in deep-red Missouri the $15 minimum wage passed in a landslide, but for some reason, all Democrats wanted to talk about was tax cuts that no one thinks they’ll actually pass anyway.

      The Democratic Party is basically dead now. Time to sit back and watch the MAGAs eat themselves. Clock ticking.

        Well that’s one way to look at this positively.

        How do you see this going down? Internal power struggles and tantrum hissy fits?

      Yeah no. I hate the democrats, I’m a registered libertarian. The popular vote said they’re fine with project 2025.

      I don’t really care what issues anyone had. It was exesetential. We failed. That’s not a party issue, it’s an American issue. I don’t care about turnout, if you didn’t turn out you don’t care. Thats not on the party that’s on you. I don’t care about policy, it’s all about to get worse, we’ve seen it. Parties cease to matter when there’s dead bodies in the halls of government. We all saw the worst fucking coup attempt in history… And it worked. There is no party to blame for that. 2016 came down to poor leadership, this is just… deserved.

      We’ll see what’s left to re-build with.
