Maybe you think it possible to correct the course of a boat without touching the rudder... i dont. If the Democratic Party cant be criticized and cant be corrected, it cannot be steered. We've lost hundreds and hundreds of seats, we have lower approval ratings that the opposition, and one of our most seasoned leaders just lost a "change" election to a man who cant speak at a 5th grade level.
The truth is, the Dems have some issues that need fixing, and calling them out over them is needed. If our party is made up of people who simply cant take criticism, we are doomed.
