Real Democrats need to ditch the establishment Dems and form their own version of MAGA from within and get shit done.
I saw yesterday where they were going to sideline David Hogg because he was becoming a little too dangerous to some of the members of the ‘Do Nothing’ party.
What a waste.
I’m not so sure they even want that at all. Simply because of their shameful behavior, while the US president acts like a goddamn Nazi (because he obviously is one, of course).
But for all that, the Democrats have refused to allow even a little progressiveness in their ranks for years, against the wishes of their own voters.
But hey, I don’t know very much about all this because I’m from Germany.
All I can say is that in our country - and this applies to larger parts Europe - Sanders, for example, would be a moderate center-left politician. What he is calling for is not at all radical in many parts of the world, but rather quite normal. Basic decency, so to speak…
They won’t. They’ll make sure nothing fundamentally changes.
Sorry, they’re too busy trying to stop David Hogg.
I mean, they have a point. DNC chairs shouldn’t be picking winners. Hogg is free to make his own path. If there is internal corruption he should start by exposing it.
So now we’re calling creating competition “picking winners”?
Funding opponents of incumbents you don’t like is tantamount to picking winners.
It’s fine to do it but not from the position he is in.
Is that not just how the DNC/political parties in general normally works anyways?
Remember Debbie Wasserman Shultz and how everyone was pissed at her for pulling strings for Hilary?
We don’t need to recreate that.
I think there could be arguments that the DNC could set their agenda and eject anyone who opposes it but just trying to root people out through back door deals is not great.
Sure is convenient that the party suddenly wants impartiality when centrists might get primaried.
They didn’t have primaries last cycle and just told us who we were expected to vote for and that wasn’t a problem. That was just 6 months ago.
Democrats care about neutrality like republicans care about fiscal responsibility.
So I remember a political party behaving like one? Yeah, I do.
The party spends money on candidates that’s how politics works (which sucks but whatever).
DNC chairs shouldn’t be picking winners
The second the shoe is on the other foot.
You take the current sitting dictator drag them out by their toes from his Ivory tower string them up in Town square and let everybody look at them.
That’s how it’s always been done historically and that’s how it’s still done to this day it’s very effective.
Republicans still don’t see him as a dictator, though. That’s part of the problem.
When the fascists roll up to abduct people they seem to always wear masks, black clothing, and show no ID so they cant be identified. Because they know what they are doing is something unethical, and they would not want it attached to their name. They all need to be doxed and held to account for their criminal conduct, whether acting in an official capacity or not. They had a choice to comply with illegal orders and they chose to comply. Criminals, the lot of them.
Ideally they’d just be shot on sight so the modern gestapo is too afraid to keep abducting people.
Any democratic candidate preaching “forgiveness and healing” needs to be primaried. We need representatives who are willing to absolutely curb-stomp the fuck out a party that is effectively an occupying enemy force.
These are not people to “reach out” to. They are enemies to overcome.
Shoulda done that, I dunno…a decade ago?
We as citizens need to use our second amendment. It was created for this.
If this is the mentality you’re gonna approach this situation with, you’re cooked. The demented orange asshole is already building a dictatorship and democrats barely give a shit. “Fearing the consequences” isn’t something they do because there are no consequences as we’ve seen multiple times. You gotta make them fear for their lives. And you gotta give people a real alternative to the oligarchy that is the US.
The DNC? Will never happen. They need to be afraid of the people and for all their bluster I’ve never seen them do anything but capitulate.
People should not be afraid of the government, government should be afraid of the people.
They held up little signs, begged for bipartisanship, and voted for Republican only written bills. I mean what more do you want from them!
Well so far they’ve been holding signs in congress… that’s a very effective way in fact I remember the first pustch attempted by Hitler was entirely halted by mild mannered people holding signs.
Democrats will do nothing like they always do
We could try voting in more than 50 DNC senators for the first time in over a decade.
It was a sufficient majority to do everything democrats said they wanted to do. Instead of using it, they got in their own way and broke their promises, secure in the knowledge that they have people like you to make excuses for them.
We all do, not just those in the office
Especially since those in office don’t seem particularly interested.
