#Democrats lose elections because they treat #Progressives like their own personal vote-farm to whom they owe nothing.

And then act affronted when, weirdly, we don't play along.

They don’t put in the work but think progressives somehow owe them. They need to lose hard a few more times and ditch the billionaires they are beholden to

We've been saying THAT for election after election, but the #Democrats refuse to learn the lesson AFTER LOSING TO #TRUMP TWO OUT OF THREE TIMES.

They seem to think the answer isn't to expand the tent, but to go after #Progressives to fall in line HARDER.

Even though it keeps not working.

It's bizarre that they seem to think they are owed a vote, but also become indignant when those who do vote for them have expectations, desired outcomes, etc. that voting for them is intended to facilitate. They want voters to vote for the sake of the party and not what the party is supposed to do?

Yep it’s all about the party. Makes sense when you consider how little party does when it actually has power. It does sweet f$ck all

People don't call #Obama the Compromiser in Chief for nuthin'.

That dude surrendered in advance on EVERY BILL.
Why would I vote for THAT party?

Too be fair the dems treat blacks, gays, labor etc etc the same way

And that's why the #Democrats can't seem to beat Donald #Trump more than one time out of three: it's more important to the establishment and the #DNC that they lose with a neo-lib than EVER win with a #Progressive.
