I doubt she even knows what she did wrong
I would posit that they didn't screw up, but in fact the election went just the way the Dems wanted it to. The two party system and electoral college are a puppet show, with Democrats playing Bread, and the Republicans Circuses, while both advance the cause of whomever has the most money.
I call bullshit for one and only one reason: never, ever, have these people demonstrated the competence to execute such an intricate plan. I’m not saying it’s impossible, I’m just saying that these jokers have never shown that they are capable of doing such a thing. Regardless of whatever motivation you might be able to uncover, I simply don’t find it a credible claim that they’re capable of this kind of unity of purpose and brilliance in their execution.
The bag of idiots we have running the Democratic Party at the moment, simply could not pull this shit off. At the very least, someone would blab as a brag or something like that.
They have shown an ability to pull off such a plan. Just run a leftist for president and see how many primary elections get screwed with.
I get where you’re coming from, but I gotta say – – that is not the Democratic Party. In fact, they institutionally fight against such things.
What you’re describing is individual and independent progressive politicians – and that’s fucking awesome. It’s the future of the left in mainstream politics. And the Democratic Party can either adopt this philosophy, or be swept aside. Democrats, as voters, would widely benefit from more progressive policies, however, those who administer and run the DNC have been bought out by private interests and big money, so they no longer serve the people they continuously ensure their power simply because they think they will win by appeasing their billionaire donors by appealing to an imaginary and nonexistent “center”.
It’s time to shake shit up
It was time to shake shit up back in 2016 when they brought in DWS to ensure that no shaking could occur. I'm not holding my breath.
Welcome to the ship of discontent
