    At this rate I fully expect the democrats to fumble the midterm elections which should be literally the easiest campaign in decades.

      DNC at this point has become a thankless scapegoat. Looking from outside the US, its crazy to see the copium. Which political party in this world can “do its job” when you fking literally elect convicted felons? How tf is it the easiest election when a vast majority dont even care that he is a convicted rapist. Its time to blame the citizens for a change than fuckall. Hitler could have run for election and still lose to Trump and that is saying something. With a democrat base like these commenters here, I don’t know why the politicians even bother. Just leave the country for a decade and let it rot.

      I’d appreciate if you not engage in this sort of tankie rhetoric. They will not “fumble” if you actually go support them instead of typing behind your .world alt

        Criticism of one of the worst democratic party campaigns is clearly the mark of a tankie.

        There’s just no way telling your constituency and voter base to “fuck off” would have any kind of negative consequence on the election.

        It’s just simply impossible. We clearly lost because the tankies from .ml ran a nationwide psyop that lead to losing every single swing state.

        They fumbled against fucking Trump. TWICE. I’m not going to campaign for slightly less bad than Trump because if that’s what they run again I’m done.

          Your house is on fire and your entire family is trapped inside.

          The firefighters ran in to save your wife, and then got scared and ran out again, and she burned to death.

          Then they ran in to save your child, but they got hungry and came back out for lunch. Your child burned to death.

          Now your baby is dying, and the firefighters want you to help save it. And you’ve decided to let your baby burn in a fire because you’re mad at the firefighters.

            No in this comparison the firefighters let the arsonist start the fire and have talked a whole lot about how they are going to save my wife and children, but haven’t actually moved inside the house except for one firefighter, who the others admonished for being to radical.
