In reply to the discussion: Do Any Democrats Besides Newsom Understand What Magats Are Doing? [View all]Oopsie Daisy
(6,670 posts)53. Or... also assume: corruption, collusion, senility. It's always the same things over and over.
No matter where I go online, there's anti-Democrat and anti-Democratic party script or playbook that everyone seems to be copying-and-pasting from.
The point, you asked about... since no solutions or ideas are offered, I can only assume that the point is virtue signaling. The kind of shit that Michael Moore is famous for. Naysayer and soothsayer... always predicting the worst, and if it happens he boasts "told-ya-so!" And, if it doesn't happen, he boasts "thank goodness the Democrats heeded my wise warnings". --- It's always the same repetitive BS that we've come to expect. It's so tiresome.

Short term matters... we need to win the next few elections and then we can worry about the long term.

This is only a minority of Democrats! Precinct chairs and delegates affiliate with the party for two years.

You seem to have quite a bit of advice to give Democrats -- why don't you run for that seat?
