Vote blue no matter who! It’s worked great so far! 🤪

    I voted for Harris for what little good that did. Have any counterpoints that aren’t complete fabrications?

    Democracy is at stake while you compose strongly-worded letters.

    Maybe it’s time to try progressivism before it’s too late?

    Thank you for saying this. You have people telling you the leadership is turning people off and your response is to blame those people for why your party is so unpopular. I think I better understand why Gen Z is actually more conservative than us millennials.

    If more people had, we'd be in a better place right now.

    Also, what does that have to do with this? This is blue vs blue. This is when "vote blue no matter who" doesn’t apply.

    "Vote blue no matter who" is what establishment Democrats say to Progressives or anyone who's aware of the constant betrayal of the working class the establishment Dems have perpetrated for decades.

    We witnessed the absolute pointlessness of voting blue no matter who in the last election — an establishment Dem proud of her record of convictions against nonviolent drug "criminals" and wouldn't say boo about Israel's genocide ran and lost against one of the least popular candidates in history. And still we hear how progressives somehow lost the election for the establishment. Establishment Dems are still whining (without evidence) that Bernie somehow lost them the 2016 election. When progressive policies poll with broad support. And Bernie polled higher than either Hilary or Donald.

    It couldn't be any more relevant.

    My DUI hires? Bernie and AOC are spitting straight truth while Chuck Schumer is composing a very strongly-worded letter over glasses firmly dipped.

    How’s the establishment Democrat with throat cancer that we had to have over AOC as speaker?

    How’s the DNC VP who longed for getting back to the real work of fundraising instead of silly fights over nonsense like policies and goals working out for you? Thank god Dems ousted David Hogg. He really was scaring away donors with his ridiculous "let's not murder children" rhetoric.
