    If liberals had brains they’d want the entire leadership of the DNC thrown into a pit for this and other colossal failures. Instead they’re brainless and will just blame us for not voting

    They would literally, unironically, genuinely lose 100 times to republicans before they elect anybody who would appease anybody left of Clinton.

    100%. It wasn’t just the genocide though. They alienated the progressives. Kamala was scared to actually talk outside of mostly scripted messaging and interviews. They didn’t provide and explain strong progressive policies. To me, Kamala was pretty indistinguishable from Joe Biden and other corporate Democrats. Her picking Tim Walz was a great move and she was way up in the polls. Had she leaned into him more, broke from Joe Biden (even thrown him under the bus a bit), and turned to other progressives for advice rather than the DNC corporate consultants, she would have won.

    This cycle the DNC, for the first time, could get the upwardly mobile suburbanite Reagan voters they’ve been salivating over my whole life. They don’t care about winning, they’re just happy that hippies don’t vote for them anymore while Cheneys do. The DNC is not a political party now, it’s a North Virginia cocktail party.
