"This kind of leadership is functionally useless to the American people."

It's been that way for a long time now. Frankly, I can't think of a single agenda the Democratic party has rallied behind in recent memory that isn't not being a Republican. The Democratic leadership is useless, that's just been better than the malicious alternative.

Edit: I'm getting responses referencing Biden policies or those that are advocated for by a few outspoken Dems. These are not what I'm referring to. The Democratic party as a whole has no message, no mission, no agenda seemingly other than "patch up the damage that the Republicans leave". No wonder Democratic voters aren't motivated, we're not being represented we're just voting to slow the inevitable decay.

School loan forgiveness? Universal healthcare?

You can't have truly public healthcare without public clinics and hospitals. How many public hospitals have Democrats built or bought lately?

Edit: I'll see you all at the next thread where you're complaining about health-related bankruptcy after you downvote me for this post. You morons deserve what you got.
