Could it be that their share class interests more with their friends across the aisle than they do with the people the are supposed to represent?

There’s some of that sure. But I do think it’s mostly because the dems are so disjointed. We have a spectrum of center left to far more socialist leftists (which I lean), so they can never just work together. The right doesn’t care at all about values so they come together nonstop to screw us.
The furthest left the Democratic Party goes is Mandani who is center left. The leadership like Schumer, Jeffries, Pelosi and Booker are all firmly right wing conservatives.
Mamdani is a democratic socialist. He’s moving what should be the Democratic Party platform in the right direction but it’s still not enough when we’re at war with fascists.
Agree it’s also not helpful when Mamdani backers (which I am) crap on people like Newsome. We need both to win. Can’t tear ourselves apart again and again.
People that espouse transphobic talking points deserved to be shit on relentlessly and forced out of the party.
Not if ends democracy as we know it. That’s why we lose elections, we make one issue become disqualifying. Might as disqualify every single member. Win then kick them out and replace. But you ain’t going to find 3 members of the Democratic Party with more political intelligence than Newsome.
Yeah, the whole unanimous consent for confirming Marco Rubio should have been a hint that the entire democratic and Republican Party needs to be removed from power. We don’t want a party that wants to be friends with Nazis. We want a political party that is going to fight Nazis.
Agree entirely
How did holding Biden’s feet to the fire work for the working class? It didn’t. You can’t make a political party change by saying there is no line you could cross to make me withhold a vote for a candidate. You literally give up all leverage as a voter at that point.
We didn’t have democracy before to end. Do you really think our elected officials legislate based on the popular opinion of their constituents? No, they legislate for the ruling class because they are bribed to do so by lobbyists.
I mean saying an entire group of people shouldn’t exist is pretty disqualifying to me.
Can you link that? I didn’t see where he said that.
Did you not see the comments that came out of newsom’s podcast with Charlie Kirk? Here’s the link. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XJ6...
Ya got a time stamp, avoiding listening to Kirk ever speak
