    Yeah, that’s why these people seems to roleplayng all the time.

    They got a too down structure, they do not represent people who voted them but only their agenda, their king.

    This is not politics, this is a coup in action.

      They got a top down structure

      Up to a few months ago both parties had for decades…

      It’s not new, but at least we finally got a DNC chair who understands you can’t build a pyramid upside down.

      The base is the important part, and Martin has a long history of giving the base what they want, because he sees running a party as working for the base.

      Like, it’s felt like bizzaro world defending the DNC the last couple months, but most people seem completely unaware of the huge accomplishment we just made.

      Even with trump in office on a decade plus timeline this is the most optimistic I’ve ever been about America’s political future.

      This is the closest we’ve been to getting an FDR style president since JFK. People forget the DNC faced a rebellion over Carter because the Dem voting base of the time considered Jimmy fucking Carter too rightwing.

      The Dem party has been off the path for 50 years, and we just took the first step back on it.

          Disclaimer:

          The only ethical way to be an optimist is to have a backup plan for worst case scenario.

          An FDR style president out of the 2028 election is predicated on there being an election in 2028.
