What do you envision as the future of the Democratic Party? Should there by any Litmus Tests or "Purity Standards" outside of defeating Trump? Or is that asking for "perfection"? Because it seems to me that Dems have largely created the situation we currently have. Half or more of the Democratic Party is onboard with much of Trump's foreign policy (as with Bush during the Iraq Invasion). Schumer was attacking Trump on foreign policy from the right. Biden didn't reenter the Nuclear Deal and explicitly continued Trump's policies. Because they're operating from the same playbook. MAGA is being played for fools. Where is the opposition party?

This is the Iraq Invasion 2.0. It's all a lie. Netanyahu has been banging on about Iran for like 30 years. This is a war of pure aggression and hegemony, not defense.


Eyes wide open. There are no excuses.

First you stop the arterial bleeding.

I do, however, agree with AOC and Hogg that a good chunk of democratic congressmen and senators need to be replaced.

Well, I blame myself for posting in this thread in a serious manner.

I was responding to an unserious post, seriously. Democrats have to be an effective vehicle to enact positive change, otherwise they are useless and are a hinderance. Meaning political change needs to go through them and without them.

Serious enough?
 
I'd believe that, but then I read your sig.

Well, prove my sig wrong. So far liberals have failed to disappoint. Biden was given the tools to stop the bleeding in 2020, and he ripped out the artery.

You can't fix a problem unless you're willing to accurately diagnose it. If your diagnosis is to blame Trump and leave Dems blameless, you're not a serious person.

Do you want them to just start shooting Republicans or something?

Well, yeah. The far left doesn't want to get blood on their Airborne Toxic Event concert shirts.

Never forget that the far left is why we have Trump. In both 2016 and today.

The Dems are doomed.
 
Don't worry. Things will go back to normal once Trump is gone.
 
Note: Of the liberal 'allies' who answered so far, 3 have blamed the Far Left and refused to give serious answers about holding Dems accountable. That's the plan going forward, guys.
 
So if Trump does something ****ed up, like gets us into a shooting war with Iran, it's the Democrats fault?

Their theory of change is to keep lobbing insults at the Left (who have actual solutions) while losing to fascists. I think think they could lose to Trump twice, but seeing is believing.

Here's your actual solution: You can implement those solutions all by yourself.

Let me know how it works out.
