    The people running the show since Obama left are the ones that are still pissed he beat Hillary in 08.

    Instead of reshaping the DNC, Obama ignored it and Hillary’s people have had a hold of it except the brief few months Donna Brazil got in. And since she went public with all the shit they’d been doing, we haven’t seen anything else for 8 years.

    They know exactly what they’re doing won’t win elections.

    They know exactly what will win elections instead.

    But that’s not what fills their campaign coffers, so that’s not what we’ll get from them.

    The goals of Dem voters and Dem leadership haven’t been aligned for decades.

      Politicians should have to be able to publicly account for every single dollar in their bank accounts. Something tells me if we somehow could magically make that happen tomorrow there wouldn’t be a politician left.

      Maybe Bernie lol.

        The magical way is having won an election and spending the next 4 years passing legislation and letting people know every day that you are working towards it, showing results every day of every month until the end of mandate

        But yeah for that you need to win an election first

        And be consistent
