Yup. Agree, especially in regards to Biden and Dems being ineffective; it’s kind of weird to hope Trump set a new standard for what happens when a Dem takes office because I very much do not want to see ineffective leadership like that again.
Also, I have a close friend in Missouri and he expressed a similar sadness about that. I hope you and him are mistaken, but I know how short term memory voters have. None the less, there are Democrats everywhere, other states are a nice reminder of that.
Yeah, but there’s a political grand canyon between Democrats and DSA’s. Oh well.
Got a bit of a push closer to DSAs but… yeah.
The DSA’s and the ability of a minority in Congress to actually start some shit is what I’m hanging my one little shred of hope on.
I don’t think it’s a political grand canyon, that’s an illusion pushed by the political consultant class. Establishment dems think you need corporate money to win, DSA candidates proved that’s not true.
The establishment dems need to be reminded that the DSA wants a return to, and strenghthening of, the New Deal. And we need to identify and remove all the democrats who have loyalty to AIPAC. Not funding Florida because AIPAC didn’t want Angie Nixon to win should be a career ender for Chuck Schumer, especially now that he’s trying to take credit for this wave.
I think it is.
Party operatives like James Carville had the balls to say it publicly. Democrats preferred a Republican Majority to getting DSA’s elected.
You know, you’re right. I’m thinking it’s not a policy chasm.
It is a political chasm and that is almost entirely for selfish reasons(like self enrichment) by the establishment.
