This is why we need a real worker’s party, because this party is dead, and refuses to change.

A Reuters/Ipsos poll released Thursday found that 62 percent of Democrats said “party leaders should be replaced,” 49 percent of Democratic respondents said they were “unsatisfied with current leadership” and 41 percent said they disagreed with the sentiment that they were unsatisfied with leadership.

    LOL, nice that you copied Biden’s presidential bio. Although a few of these are good bandaids, such as the $15 min wage (although it needed to be more for a real impact given the state of Biden’s economy,) nothing here that really helped the major issues which is why the working class either sat the election out or voted for the orange man. Grocery/gas/utility bills were at an all time high under Biden, his economy sucked, and he did nothing to prevent it. Open borders under Biden, who left them open, whether you agree or not, was one of the biggest campaign voting issues for the workers, and Trump. Healthcare costs are bankrupting workers, Biden did nothing. He lowered only a few drugs for the boomers, but again, nothing to impact the working class. Do you see the bigger picture, no real working class issues addressed, same for cackling Harris (Hillary’s girl, I mean half her campaign staff was from Hillary’s campaign.)

    Oh and lets take a snapshot of what is happening right now with the dems in NY as noted by Abraham Aiyash;

    Democrats who ripped apart Trump’s character for his conduct with women, etc, then proceed to endorse serial sexual harasser @andrewcuomo for mayor because they’re afraid of progressives like @ZohranKMamdani is exactly why people don’t trust or respect the Democratic Party.

    The fact that Democrats will sell out EVERY SINGLE THING they claim to care about - whether it’s political corruption, or a woman’s right to bodily autonomy, or arming and funding genocide - is the reason people no longer trust or respect the Democratic Party.

      Yeah, real actual federal accomplishments and you’re all “sniff they should have done more, lol”

      Why would a functional party appeal to you in the first place?

      Do you see the bigger picture, no real working class issues addressed, same for cackling Harris

      Cackling Harris huh. Hm where have I heard that characterization before . . .? Oh I know! The same fuckwit right-wing channels that decry “the liberals”. You must be very proud.

      lets take a snapshot of what is happening right now with the dems

      Who is “the dems”? They sound terrible. Enjoy the republiQan party, you’ll have lots to talk about.

        You resorted to low-effort name calling. I see you! I am in one of the largest political parties, the independent party, disenfranchised by the uni-party system. I am a real progressive, not like those in the democratic party that speaks the language, and then votes for genocide, or sheep-herds the progressives into voting against their principles for neo-liberal candidates. I am awake.

              My apologies for my last post, I missed a word or two because I was short on sleep. I’m on your side. You showed proof they don’t work for the people, and Optional just ignored your citations. Not a shocker from them.

              Yeah I thought so. You have no idea what you’re doing.

              Help or get out of the way.

                  Help who? or What?

                  Everybody who’s shitting on the Democrats like our intrepid “lefty” above has no plan, no details, and no understanding of national politics.

                  It’s all “okay the Democrats lost. Hooray! . . . um” and that’s what’s so stupid.

                    And you also don’t have a plan, details, or an understanding of politics.

                    The current Democrats and their supporters are the very definition of “not helping, but in the way”.
