(71,499 posts)in 16 ...where the Party was ruthlessly criticized from the right and the left including by Sarandon (may she burn in hell) and West (him too)...and then Republicans like Trump are elected. Vote Democratic and stop with the 'fix the party' BS if you please. There is no time assuming there is any sort of fix that will be universally accepted. I prefer a big tent inclusive approach. Any so called 'fixing' will never be enough anyway for Democratic Party detractors...who should just admit they are Russian trolls,Greens, Libertarian or out and out GOP types... and move on. You want progressive policy...vote Democrat always and vote in every election including midterms.
You want change than join the Party and work for change within...be the change you want. If one is not a Democratic but something else...my general opinion...is he/she should have no say in party politics. a non-Democrat should not vote in primaries (closed primaries stop GOP meddling), criticize Democrats in any misguided attempt to have a say in something they don't belong to. One joins the party or if not... such people should leave it alone unless they have a burning desire to elect Republicans. I think some of the folks do. You say, the people mentioned don't bare responsibility, but they do...their words helped take Hillary Clinton down...the constant criticism demonized her and destroyed her candidacy in a number of states...I despise them all and never listen to any of them...they are Trump supporter and Republicans enablers.
