Goddammit we were all warned about this MULTIPLE fucking times.
“I’ll be a dictator on day one.”
They appear to be flying the Ferengi flag, sir.
Looks like a bunch of KKK hoods to me
Or a metal band logo
Leaving the World Health Organization is terrifying
I’ll never understand why anyone thought the guy to clean up after Trump’s first term was an over 80 year old moderate who’s views on presidential powers boils down to:
I believe the president should be powerless, which apparently means as president I can’t limit the next presidents power
We need someone to fight fascism and we got a geriatric pacifist who spent his whole campaign lying about what he was prepared to do…
And then when he dropped out last minute we ran his VP who kept saying she agreed with him 100% and wouldnt have changed anything over the last four years, despite most of what he “tried” never making it I to the planning stages or getting struck down before implementation.
Biden failed and Kamala told voters she was fine with that and then acted shocked when that’s not what voters wanted.
Voters want someone who will fight for them, not “aww shucks, vote for me again and we’ll try the same shit”.
Bernie would have been that person. I’m still upset about that.
I can’t think of anyone aggressive enough for the future. AOC maybe?
AOC is the best bet.
But whoever it is, the focus needs to be on increasing turnout from the left and not attempting to steal Republican voters by moving the whole party right.
Republican voters will always say if Dems agree with them they’ll vote D, but it’s always a lie and they’ll always vote R.
Just this way they still get what they want if they lose and they know it’ll help the Republican win.
Either the people running the DNC are so stupid they still haven’t noticed, or they’re in on the grift. Considering the same billionaires/corps donate to both parties, I’m not really it out.
But regardless of why they’re so bad at their job, we can’t afford to keep letting them run the literal only other option to fascism.
As John Oliver just said (paraphrased, but around 10:30 of latest episode):
If you wanted a centrist campaign that’s quiet on trans issues, tough on border, distances itself from Palestinians, talks a lot law and order and reaches out to Republicans…
…
That candidate existed, and she just lost.
She can’t have gone any further “center” and she performed horribly. Anyone saying we went to far left isn’t paying attention to reality, they’ll listening to billionaire’s talking heads on the TV.
