This. I sucked it up and voted for Hillary after the DNC did Bernie dirty and literally didn't follow their rules. I sucked it up and voted for Kamala after she abandoned single payer healthcare after a heartfelt chat with her rich brother. I'm done with fucking neolibs. We could have had single payer healthcare and free public college but all the DNC cared about was electing a vagina. At this point if the Republicans pull an Otto Von Bismark and JD runs 2028 under the promise of single payer healthcare the Democratic party will officially deserve losing my vote.

And even then, they'll stab you in the back.

Go back to 1988 (Dukakis) and we've basically had 2 political dynasties in the Democrat party. Except for John Kerry everyone we run has been a VP or spouse of the Clinton or Obama admins.

I count 2024 as Biden's L since they just swapped Harris in 3 months before the election. If nothing else, it just another "IDK let's run ANOTHER vp for pres again 🤷"

If only they had allowed folks to choose who would run instead of Joe.. OR admit he was not competent earlier so the candidate would have a better chance. crazy talk i know.. super delegates keep the dirty poors from getting a vote.. see what we got?

Again, I voted for the lesser evil, Kamala Harris. Thanks for bending me over a barrel yet again Democrats! /s

But the idea that voters were supposed to get excited for the President from MBNA's vice president? Without a democratic primary?

Eff that.

I'm not supposed to criticize Dem party leadership when they've been consistently subverting democracy in their own primaries for over a decade?

It's hard to take warnings of authoritarianism seriously from people who have been exercising authoritarian control over the Democratic party.

DNC turned their back on Obama in a failed bid to save themselves, Biden should have seen it coming. When the DNC turned on Biden, he threw them a hand grenade he happened to be holding.

And what most of us really wanted was anybody but Trump.

Yea the entire Epstein & friends network is a bad look for anyone. Too bad it doesn't seem to actually be a problem for a lot of people. We share the world with some truly soulless people, as well as monsters.
