The DNC needs to go. All of it. Literally just gone. There needs to be a real left grassroots party that maintains a much more tight ideological vision and focuses internally.
If only we could go back in time and make Bernie the Dem candidate and save Harambe.
"Bernie is too old to be president" immediately votes in people just as old 3 times in a roe
We never got to feel the Bern… :(
Don't you all worry your pretty little heads about any of this. In 4 years, the DNC will pick yet another anointed candidate for you to fall in line behind like good little boys and girls. And you all will dance and scream for joy and you will punish and cast out any who show signs of opposition to the one true anointed candidate.
As it was, is now and ever shall be. World without end of the Almighty DNC, Amen.
I could be wrong but polling I've seen says 83% of black men and 93% black women voted Democrat. Latinos and White people voted closer to 50% between the two parties
Latinos were the biggest loss as far as I can tell. There is a host of reasons why this group crumbled.
Let's see how they like seeing family members deported.
Not just family members.
If you and your entire family are suddenly thrown in a cage, who are you gonna call to grab your birth certificate from the safe deposit box?
We coulda had a bad bitch.
Sanders put out a statement today:
Before I finished reading I was gonna say that while I love Bernie, him talking shit now seemed pretty "hindsight 20/20" considering he endorsed her.
But the "serious convo" and "stay tuned" is interesting. I hope he overthrows DNC or starts his own shit with AOC.
I agree 100% we needed him. If you asked me 8 years ago I'd even say I honestly believe we, as Americns, deserve him. I'm now very seriously wondering that. It's starting to feel like we don't. Im against collective punishment so I don't mean to say that implies people who are going to suffer from this deserve their suffering, but I'm not sure that implies we deserve a politician like him. Glad as hell we have him in whatever office we can though.
If Bernie Sanders leaves the Democratic Party i will follow him.
He's actually an independent, he just works with the Dems to get shit done.
when they aren’t directly obstructing him
He already did, didn't you see the refreshing band of green next to his name amid all the red and blue? He generally votes the same as the Dems though.
The prince that was promised...
Bernie beating Trump is a nice fantasy, but it wouldn't happen either.
This election was an information war, and the Democrats fought it like they're in another century. And they're going to lose again if they think sensible policy, however revolutionary and in-touch, and hopeful TV ads are how you win elections.
They need their own form of MAGA. And they need to flood and poison the internet and airwaves just like the Republicans did.
A Democratic MAGA equivalent would be quickly literally bulldozed by the militarized police nationwide.
Let them come
