DISCLAIMER: I’M NOT FROM USA.
From the outside looking in, it seems like at least half of the inaction of the “left” is because ol’ Chucky just hinders everything.
“We wrote a strong letter” was probably the first time I actually, genuinely didn’t understand how he’s still the leader of the party.
Since then I’ve done some digging, and it seems like the guy is actually quite delusional. Not even his imaginary friends vote for him, which is kinda sad. Understandable though.
Now he’s talking about voting on whether they should block the military action in Venezuela. The ongoing one. The one that’s been planned publicly for months.
So, how does he still have his job?
How did Mamdani take NYC against a filthy-rich opponent (Cuomo) with literal billionaires and the national conservative machine standing against him?
AOC was a bartender and took her House seat, untouchable now.
Obama was a nobody from Illinois. People heard him speak at the 2004 Democratic National Convention (me included!) and jumped onboard.
Clinton took the Presidency as an unheard-of governor of a hick state nobody cared about. And a Democrat in that state no less!
They all did it without big money, against wealthier opponents and won by talking to their people and listening. The formula works.
