They need to announce the formation of a new party
Maybe announcing a new party is premature, but at least talking about steps to realistically forming one would be huge. We need a revolutionary overhaul of our 2-party political system, and I posit that most Americans, those that voted and those who didn’t, would agree that 2 bad options is not a real choice.
The binary creates the illusion of choice.
Because that worked so well with the Reform party in the UK.
That would guarantee more Republican wins
I’d have agreed with you pre-2025. But I could see it now. The Dems have been letting us down over and over again. We need a party that cuts out billionaire money and promises to enforce the same on all politicians once they take power.
The problem is, it is very hard to win elections without money. So a party that cuts out billionaire spending is less likely to win while also splitting the dem vote.
The Democrats wanted to tax the rich and they still got way more donations than Trump, but all of that pales in comparison to buying out Twitter.
You don’t have to be poor to see that Republicans are a threat to us all.
Democrats outraised trump and still lost.
You need to not tell your voters to fuck off if you can imagine that.
The DNC didn’t have foreign bot farms and billionaires on their side.
Elon literally bought votes but you don’t count that when you say “outraised Trump”.
The DNC didn’t have foreign bot farms and billionaires on their side.
I know! Maybe if they abandon everyone that you don’t care about and focus only on the bot farms and billionaires that you do care about, they’ll win!
Democrats can’t keep moving to the right like you want them to. They hit a wall. They peeled off none of the republican votes you envy. But they got to throw people you hate under the bus, so it’s good for you.
They’ve literally won the majority of elections since the 90s by appealing to moderates. They lost in 2024 because Russia had a war at stake and billionaires didn’t want to get taxed. Add in inflation from the pandemic and you have a tough campaign to win.
The argument that democrats can’t win without the left is not based on reality.
Dems tried to appeal to leftist and they screeched “genicide Joe” until Trump won.
Meanwhile republicans won because voters to the right of leftist know the importance of not shitting on the candidate they want to win.
No.
More wins than they already won?
Of course
Why are you posting irrelevant bullshit? We’re not talking about running a “third party” candidate. We’re talking about destroying the Democratic party and rebuilding it into something that isn’t traitorous and corrupt.
it’s time for the Democrats to go the way of the Whigs.
Sounds like you’re warming up for the next election when you’ll be trying to convince people not to vote or vote 3rd party.
Sounds like you’re trying to dismiss my argument out of hand by associating me with the pro-fascist concern trolls and their useful idiots who did that in this previous election. You can fuck all the way off with that dishonest, ad-hominem bullshit.
There’s a huge fucking difference between abandoning a candidate in the middle of the election with fuck-all for alternatives, and trying to reform or replace the party with literally as much margin as possible before the next election. If now is not the right time to try to get shit done, when is? Tell me that, O Great Arbiter of Political Acceptability!
You need to quit your bullshit, and on top of that you owe me a goddamn apology.
Splitting the only opposition to the Republican Party during a coup is a guaranteed benefit to the GOP.
That’s what you are arguing for.
You want me to apologize for pointing out the cause and effect of what you’re asking for?
I’m sure there are lots of ASU fans here but personally I don’t trust them.
Guess I’m out of the loop, what’s wrong with ASU?
