    They should make their own party with blackjack and hookers. A third party that isn’t sleepwalking like the democrats could actually win in this shitshow

    The Dems need to do a lot of things. I don’t really believe it’s possible.

    For one, if they continue to be owned by corporations, then no change will happen.

    If We The People don’t actually have a say in party nominees, no change will happen.

    If they keep bending over to “cross the aisle”, no change will happen. Stop trying to be the “good guy” and fucking fight for the party platform.

    And that platform needs to shift away from the wants of rich liberals. Progressives need a voice.

    Dems are just a bunch of empty chairs.

    Sucks, but it’s also an opportunity. Plenty of space for progressives to move in and take over.

    Dems are the establishment, both parties are full of old pieces of shit I think Bernie is the only decent one and he’s promoting stuff that we have in Europe and is basic for a rich western democracy.

    Nothing is gonna change unless people start rioting and protesting in the streets like the fucking French do, go set a few precints on fire and the ruling noble class will notice you once you kick a few of their loyal uniformed dogs

    The democrat party is worthless, but not all democrats are. I don’t agree with all their policies, but there’s still a few Democrats worth listening to.

    Their average age is just under 60. I’d vote for it, if I we’re still allowing that kind of thing

    We need a democratic party that fights … just that … that will do something besides just expose their belly.
