    Poor soul thinks said corporate media somehow exists completely outside of the scope of the DNC as if the DNC itself isn’t just a convention for corporate donors to show up and throw in their demands in exchange for campaign funds and lobbying money.

    I mean I’m sure the headline NYT article about Clinton having a 91% chance of winning was totally some next level corporate funded psyop and not a one of the many thousands of advertisements paid for by the DNC. /s

    No, it’s totally the corporate media that’s after her and has absolutely nothing to do with the candidate that dropped the entire uncommitted movement worth of constituents for $100 mil in corporate AIPAC money. /s

          Mostly the anger at having to pick a slightly less lethal poison election after election

          The DNC went full mask off this year by not holding primaries. By campaining with the cheneys and pushing 10 year old GOP policies/talking points.

          All they will learn from this is losing elections still lets you amass a “warchest” of one billion dollars

              I remember when Obama said he would codify Roe v Wade if he got elected then did nothing.

              The inaction of dems got us here

                I seem to remember Dems spending all their political capital on the ACA.

                You could argue they could have done more. But I’m responding to the comment above it and to suggest Dems are “slightly less lethal” is idiotic.

                And that’s just abortion. Add in repealing the ACA and mass deportation, the comparison gets dummer and dummer.
