And this is why Democrats will keep losing.
Democrats will keep losing because that’s their sole purpose.
Ratchet effect.
The Republicans tug on the levers of power pulling everything right.
The Democrats’ duty is to normalize and rationalize while the GOP resets for the next tug.
There are Democrats that do actually care, but the DNC leadership is well right of center and would rather lose to Trump than win with Burnie.
Democrats will always lose because liberals are right of center nimby turds that will continue to worship capitalism as we all burn.
Anyone expecting the Democrats to save them is ignoring this is the first election in decades no state Democrat contested any result and PA, NY, and NV all show results that are statically impossible and obviously manipulated.
People think the Democrats are losing relevance because they’re “Too woke”, and “No one cares about transpeople when there are bills to pay”
It’s really because they do shit like try to compromise with someone who wants to kill you by agreeing to let them cut off an arm.
Nobody thinks that. This is the excuse democrats use to not own up to their right wing campaign with Liz Cheney.
Sadly there are many people who voted for Trump because Democrats are “Communists and Woke!” and that they “Invented Transpeople to help Obama destabilize American Women’s Sports!”
“I don’t want any harm to me?”
Republicans: I want blood. You have it. Give your body to me to harm.
Democrats: Look he said he wants blood, have you considered they are frustrated with this economy? Maybe a figner as an olive branch will solve this. …not mine.
how will you protect trans people?
Interview question
I’ll follow the law
Harris.
People think the Democrats lost…
At this point US needs leaders who can mobilize people and spearhead protest marches in the street. AOC is perfectly positioned to call for such protest march. If she does that and become figurehead of the Dem Allies against MuskTrump axis, she might get elevated to same status as MLK and may be even Lincoln. And on that note, why Kamala is quiet ?
it wasn’t that badly by the numbers, it was badly by the electoral college….
incidentally trump won every and only states that passed new voter suppression laws….
this election was stolen and that’s only one piece of it….
i still hate kamala, but she won.
And on that note, why Kamala is quiet ?
Kamala Harris is the new Hillary Clinton. The GOP boogeyman and now political poison after she embarrassingly lost to Donald Trump.
Kamala Harris was deeply unpopular both before and during the Biden administration, and (sorry to say it, but it’s true) she was largely picked because there was pressure for Biden to pick a minority female to “balance out” the fact that he was a white man. You know how some people, particularly (but not entirely) on the right, believe that affirmative action means that minorities end up getting positions that they otherwise probably wouldn’t have gotten because someone needs to fill a “diversity quota” or whatever? That’s how a lot of people felt about Harris – picked not because of her qualifications, but because she was a black woman.
She’s basically been the poster child for this as far as the GOP is concerned ever since. And not in a good way. Right now, with anti-DEI sentiment gaining traction in this country at a record pace and DEI initiatives becoming political battery acid, the last thing you want as the face of the movement is someone believed to be the poster child for DEI initiatives run amok.
I do not think AOC has remote same appeal or adeptness of rhetoric to ever do something like this. Would recommend listening to MLKs speeches if haven’t already. Someone like that will come eventually, but they can’t be forced into that position. Also, the situation has to call for it. If it were possible to wake up and choose to be MLK we’d have a million.
No. Send in Schumer again. Surely it’ll work this time.
It should not be on her shoulders to explain this moment. The fact that she is able to articulate our current crisis is amazing.
It should not be on her shoulders to explain this moment.
I can think of no shoulders more capable.
