I literally do blame the Democrats for Trump, and if you don’t, you weren’t paying attention.
Plenty of us were critiquing Clinton’s campaign on those merits and were consistently talked down to in shocker the same way we’re being talked down to now. Shocker, she lost. I remember saying a few weeks before the election “We’re about to get Brexited.” I put my vote down for Clinton, because Trump is fucking insane, and that was clear before he was President. It was clear in the fucking 1980’s.
Being able to critique our leaders is supposed to be what is the difference between us and conservative voters. They’re the cult who unquestioningly believes all the bullshit that comes out of Trump’s mouth and diapers. I find it weird that people think we should be more like them in regards to our leaders like that would be a good thing.
IMO, the best time and place to make your opinion on Democratic policy known is the Democratic primary election and who you choose to help campaign for the primaries
No, because Superdelegates. It’s not a real vote if the party apparatus can force the result they want by blunting a challenger’s momentum/stopping their win.
Besides, airing complaints at the primary only gets them heard by the hyper-engaged of the electorate. I.e. not your typical voter. “Go vote in the primary” is the correct messages, yes. But you’ll never be heard by a bigger crowd who might agree and also agitate for change(s).
