    It’s largely leadership that keeps anything from getting done

    THEY ARE THE LEADERSHIP

    Christ it’s like the right still talking about the “Deep state” when they are deeper in the state than an Alabama hog farmer and his prize sow. Nah fam I am done playing the shell-game of accountability.

    Dem “leadership” does nothing but field candidates they know will lose, and write stern letters to the people funding death squads. They are ineffectual because they don’t want to win. I don’t even care if I’m painting the whole party with too broad a brush, because whoever is in there still on our side don’t seem to have the power or will to go against their party in any meaningful capacity.

    Flush the toilet, sink the turds, fill the bowl with new turds and lets see if they sink or float.

      AOC and Mamdani are leadership? Did anyone tell them or the DNC that?

      The closest we’re getting to a shell game here is painting with a broad brush and lumping them all into one shell. You’re never going to get the old guard out if you continue to make enemies of the ones actually working to do it.

        🙄

        They have one of the strongest mandates imaginable, the popularity of this president and ICE and our “foreign policy” if you want to call it that are some of the most unpopular, openly reviled federal actions and policies ever undertaken in this country. The democrats could capitalize on this with great fury and show the power of the people is a stronger source of political capital than a small segment of armed nuts who prop up the current Trumpist GOP.

        Dems are rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
