Dems have the uncanny ability to suck so much that they torch goodwill even when the public hates what Trump is doing. Replace the geriatric fucks with your people who can actually inspire the voting base again, like a certain guy in NY.

How negative can it be if he keeps winning and doing whatever he wants?
I mean, I'm souring on the Democrats because they haven't fucking done anything to divert us from this disaster.
They do seem to be pointing fingers at their voter base…
Yes, it's what they do instead of introspection.
It’s our fault for not agreeing with their donors. Look at how many CEO’s and Billionaires Kamala is friends with, and Dick Cheney. She’s even friends with war criminals. What’s wrong with you?
They’ve had a bunch of long talks on the floor of congress.
Worse still, they seem eager to contribute to it. Just look at all the 2028 hopefuls lining up to validate Republican talking points about immigrants and trans people
Well the Overton window has moved so far to the right that the Democrats now sit where the Republican's did 16 years ago.
And they're still chasing republicans rightward.
When they get the ball, they won't play offense. When they lose the ball, they won't play defense.
Well, no, but let's not forget they did a whole lot to contribute to it. Remember Joe Biden? Yeah... We could have had Bernie.
The Dems are fairly low on my list of the blame game. But they're still on the list!
They could do the bare minimum.
- Stop approving his cabinet members.
- Stop any finance bill.
- Stop any sales to Israel.
- Push candidates with a plan to stop kid rapist.
- Sure up their base with a plan.
- Say what you will do with the new broken rules.
- Abolish ICE
- Tax the wealthy
- Ban stock trading
- Ban Citizens United decision
- Expand the court or destroy its ass
- Rewrite the constitution
Fuck, pick at least 1 and I don't get paid $200k with life time benefits and insider knowledge.
Stop any sales to Israel.
Ha. They'll never do that. It's the only policy they didn't abandon when they got pushback.

They're very high on mine. They created the conditions that allowed Trump to take power. They've fought tooth and nail to keep everyone who might have been able to prevent this disaster away from the levers of power. The Democrats are the rachet preventing the rest of the country from stopping (or gasp reversing) the Republican-led march to fascism.

Dems are perfectly happy with feeling smug in their political moral superiority and their insider trading. Why take power, and have to work hard? Chuck Schumer would rather compose stern letters to people who can't read.

In a functioning democracy this would be a great time to launch a 3rd party.
Unfortunately we wished for it on a monkeys paw and we got the America Party.
I would really love to see one, but there is none. The Greens and Libertarians aren't it, and the America Party certainly isn't it.
There should be a broad party with just these four issues:
- Fix the broken electoral system
- Fight government corruption
- Restore the rule of law (hold powerful criminals accountable)
- Healthcare
Run good, credible candidates for every seat on every level, and I don't see how you can lose.
Well, unless the media ignores you, which will probably happen.
The Dems are like the Keystone Cops bungling around while a wannabe dictator continues to take America apart.
Even if the Dems had decent candidates, their strategy and tactics are ineffective.
It’s like we get the worst of anyone who wants to be a politician, either side of the aisle.
