We have no fucking time. They told us, explicitly, what they were going to do.
Any halfway decent opposition party would have already had responses ready for each and every one of the executive orders that have been signed
It’s amazing that these assholes need time. Fuck off with the triangulation. It didn’t work in the election and it won’t work now.
The only thing they have to do is take a principled stand in favor of people. Everyone has value (besides Nazis). But they are too interested in appealing to corporate interests and republicans.
Exactly. They need time to figure out a strategy where they can appeal to their base while also proposing contradictory public policy that harms their base. Judging by their performance in the past three presidential elections, this strategy will never exist but it sure as hell hasn’t caused them to do any sort of self reflection.
We’ve decided to rename the Democrat party to Republican Lite in order to appeal to more voters.
Well the republicans are in some kind of hyperfascist accelerationist mode so I’m not sure exactly how much time we have to give them.
Translation: “We need time to figure out a way to look like we’re doing something without risking actually changing anything.”
If we’re not careful, we might accidentally do something that the voters like but that our owners don’t approve of.
You’ve had 8 years, 4 of which you had control of the white house. You’ve had enough time. You squandered it. Are you really going to do anything useful with even more?
“we gotta get more racist”
They had 12 years.
That dickhead got roasted for “concepts of a plan”, but just when you think the Democratic party can’t get any more pathetic they go and show how hopeless they are. AOC needs to break and start a party with Bernie.
It probably wouldn’t take much to get Omar and Tlaib on board either.
Spoiler alert: it will be “send us more money!”. That’s what they always settle on.
Nailed it. This is and always will be the dem’s platform.
Spare some change?
DNC staffers resign with Kamala Harris campaign $20M in debt
Step 1: put AOC and Bernie in charge
Step 2: Let em go ham
At least do…something.
Bernie is not a member of the Democratic Party right now.
Might be the best reason to put him in charge.
I’d love him to be in charge, but I doubt it will happen. I’m actually surprised he hasn’t retired yet considering his age. I’m glad he’s still fighting the good fight though.
Oh no, they may be forced to put out likable candidates?
Or treat the left as though they are voters with agency?
Am I so out of touch?
No, it’s the voters who are wrong.
Both? Both.
“Personally, I don’t want to give Republicans an inch on their claims they care about national security after their pardons,” said Murphy, D-Conn. “My hope is that we’re going to be down on the floor and on TV and back in our states talking about the danger of these pardons.”
At least there’s someone awake at the wheel
They’ll figure out some way to reach across the aisle and meet in the middle.
Like “mandatory Nazi salutes in schools but only on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays.”
By the time they’re done reaching it’s gonna look like they too are doing a Nazi salute.
It’s a long-distance high five!

You mean what got Trump elected the first time?
Gee. Maybe they should have come up with one some time between 2015 and now.
Ideally people would have seriously punished Ford for letting that Nixon prick get off scot free and fought against the personality cult that was built up for Reagan, but if we’re talking about this century, the democrats should have come up with something as soon as the tea party lunatics got in position to kneecap public sector unions during the first Obama administration.
It didn’t help that the occupy protesters were made to look like their message was a motley hodgepodge of pet causes with no real cohesiveness.
