People are storming the streets and town halls, Elon is dissolving the whole country and Trump is busy tending Putin’s toes. Where the fuck are the democrats in all this crisis? It feels AOC is doing all the heavylifting while all the rest of them smug bunch are just watching with “told ya dis was gunn happen” drawn on their face.

Please tell me my ignorant ass is just blatantly wrong because I ain’t getting any news.

    The best thing that Democrats can do is come up with a popular governing vision and then storm back in the 2026 midterms.

    Personally I would think this would have to compromise on immigration and the worst culture war excesses of the left, while emphasizing support for the working class and most importantly good governance.

      They clearly haven’t capitulated rightward enough yet. You’ll gain nothing by abandoning solidarity with even more voters, but at least you’ll get the sheer joy of throwing vulnerable minorities under the bus.
