Democratic socialista need to change their name to the labor party and start championing Bernie’s message of the past 40 years. Appealing to people on the right and left
Oh. Great.
The Democrats are a capital party just like the Republicans. We do not have a labor party in the US. Fascists and racists have their Republican Party, but liberals only have the lesser evil. There is no loyalty. We need a third party to represent labor. The two party/winner take all system is a fucking joke.
There are third parties, they’ve even spoiled some elections. I think you mean a VIABLE third party.
This is why getting a third party Going and Voted is important.
Failure? Pretty sure the oligarchy is getting exactly what they want.
They’ve been able to effectively convince the k-hive that it wasn’t their failure; that it was the failure of voters. Those convinced of this narrative are the biggest threat to being able to stop fascism using electoral or other tools.
Thankfully she has zero chance of getting the nomination…I’m terrified it’s going to be Buttgieg
For decades, we’ve always heard from them it’s someone else’s fault when we fail.
Are people still pretending they don’t understand it was written by a single freelancer?
That the people now running the DNC, didn’t run it during 2024?
Because I legitimately don’t understand how anyone who only knew those two facts, would still be blaming the people running the DNC since 2025 for what this report says was done wrong in 2024…
So it seems like the safe assumption, is people don’t understand at least one of those two things. Most likely both.
Especially when they repeat “Democrats won’t learn their lesson” literally half a term deep into the DNCs pivot away from neoliberalism. To think they haven’t learned the lesson yet, just means that person hasn’t paid attention since Biden lost the election.
It’s still bad that the most generous interpretation is the DNC is being fleeced by incompetent freelancers.
It also implies that the DNC has little interest in understanding why they lost. No mention of Biden’s age, even if to say it had no effect. No mention of Gaza, even if to say it had no effect.
If they have a better post-mordem, that does explore these topics I’d love to see it.
It makes it seem like they weren’t that serious about beating Trump if they’re still willing to hire incompetent people that avoid tough analysis.
Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer are still the House and Senate leader for the dems. Jefferies is Pelosi’s handpicked successor.
What part of the leadership do you believe has changed? What are their names?
It’s this anticipatory self‑sabotage that always makes it a self-fulfilling prophecy. The reality is that the DNC has changed. While it’s not perfect, it’s far from where it was at. Hell the run in TN-7 shows that. Republicans designed the district to be R+22 and came up in that election as R+9. Democrats were able to get a ground game going under the nose of the Republicans.
What happens is that people don’t see ENOUGH change and just go full tilt doomer. Nothing changes overnight. People need to get over themselves. If Democrats do what they did for the special election in Tennessee for at least ten years straight, then Republicans are doomed. But there’s this propensity that if it doesn’t happen in the next twenty-four hours then it’ll never happen.
I really strongly encourage Democrats to give up on the doomer act here. Change is difficult, actual change takes time.
Why start now?
