    Something something enjoy your republican overlords for the rest of time.

    Seriously what the fuck is the democratic party doing anymore. It seriously feels like the second Obama left they collectively forgot what the fuck they were doing.

      Authoritarianism is oddly efficient in making decisions and having direction. Such are the perils of democracy… an opposition that embodies shared decision making and balance of power will often look slower, incompetent and out of touch…

        "Are there changes that we need to make? "

        Man this is absolutely telling

        These guys lost an election and are still dancing around the possibility that they might need to change tactics LMAO 🤣

        They say at the end that the moment was viral but maybe viral for them is different than for the rest of us the blue collar workers

      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
