    Step 1. Replace the top Dem leadership that has shown time and time again now that they have no idea what they’re doing anymore.

    Avoid capture, find escape route to Europe, stay out of the media, build a resistance group, be taken out by the fsb and fbi.

    Hey cool, it’s that a person who caused this mess telling me what to do about it.

    Here’s what liz should do.

    • Invent a time machine.

    • Actually endorse Bernie instead of help the establishment beat him back.

    You don’t get to lead the resistance as a collaborator liz.

    I’ve always felt that Warren was one of the few politicians who actually cared about making our lives better. This response of hers, however, is completely tone-deaf.

    Progressive ballot measures for things like higher min. wage and guaranteed sick leave are (and have always been) hugely popular. Dems must make these policies part of their platform and do a much better job on messaging.

    This means they need to stop pushing out progressives. The “I’m not Trump” and “Trump is a threat to democracy” appeals were never going to work. Give people a reason to vote for YOU. SHOW them how you’re going to make their lives better.

    Calling for an obstructionist policy while Trump holds office is fine, but it does nothing to help you win the next election. It’s time to reinvent the Democrat party into one that actually serves the working class and actually “un-rigs” the system against them.

      I still remember how she, with no chance of winning herself, fucked over Bernie to give the primary nomination to Biden. I’m good. She’s totally on board with corporate democrat fuckery whether or not she claims to be one. Progressives aren’t welcome in the modern right wing-lite party.

      We need to get money out of politics before the wealthy kill us all.

    I didn’t read it. Is it abolish the DNC and start over? If not, it’s not going to work.

    Says one of the neoliberal shitbags drowning the DNC with their latent conservatism. Suuuure. We’ll all just shut the fuck up and keep our heads down so you can continue your addiction to insider trading.

    Neoliberals are the cancer of the DNC. The change needs to start with widespread primaries featuring the goddamned public. Bartenders, mechanics, grocery clerks… I trust all of them to represent my best interests over a fucking neoliberal millionaire.

      There are valid things to criticize Elizabeth Warren for, but she’s not a neoliberal. Either you don’t know anything about her, or you don’t know what that word means.

        Bullshit. She is a multi-millionaire neoliberal dressed as a progressive. I’ve held my nose and backed her in the past because she was the most progressive person available at that moment, but she is no AOC or Bernie (who she attacked in a primary for no fucking reason).

        I am so fucking tired of neoliberal cockroaches insisting their way into the left zeitgeist, poisoning our ability to identify actual progressives. I will still support her when she is the most progressive person to choose, but I will not let her off the fucking hook for being a neoliberal. Our party needs to insist on better.

        Dread and hystera, not arrogance. And not American.

        But this is the conclusion: if your country elected such a grotesque caricature of a man, the opposing party should just fucking quit in disgrace. People would rather have a fraud criminal pedo slime than them. When will they realize that?

          They won’t. It’s easier to blame someone else. In EU, even in shittier countries it is fairy normal for leadership to resign when they lose elections, especially so convincingly. And losing elections to fucking Trump should be a sign for everyone to fucking resign. But nope, they think they are irreplaceable.

          While I am absolutely aware that “voting for lesser of two evils” is a necessity, I do understand people who just couldn’t get bothered.

          It is appaling that what Democrats think is “left” is very much right in Europe. There is no left in USA, people with empathy have noone to vote for.

          You can only vote for billionaires.

          While I would always vote for Harris, if I was in the USA I would also be amazed at how scared Democrats are to say no to their sponsors.

          These are not elections. These are popularity contests and reality shows…

          They never will, and forcefully pushing them aside will take around 15-20 years, but only if they lose all elections to Trump in that time. At least that’s how it went for Hungary, but that is a country with 1% of the GDP and like 3% of the population of the US, which is also heavily influenced by EU politics.
