If Newsom is the party choice then infight all you want that man is not worthy of running a McDonalds let alone a state or country. We aren't there yet though so why fight over nothing in these comments. What even is the infighting here we're advocating for? - ThreadSky

the fact that "a liberal" should not be a primary-winning credential for a Democrat candidate, the same way that "a conservative" generally isn't enough to secure the Republican nomination on the other side.

it's a credit to the progressive wing of the party that we never coined an equivalent term to "RINO" despite how apt the acronym would be for some people, because we generally don't want to *actually* sabotage the party. in fact, I seem to remember something like that being aimed *at* us instead...

regardless, I'm a descendant of Cubs fans, hope springs eternal, but actually building for success certainly speeds it up a bit. so I will simply continue to poke at liberals while I focus on resisting the admin, and just show up to the primaries and elections yet again next cycle.

Hard to criticize people closest to the politics of the voting block they chase every single election cycle lmao. If the progressives had controlling power of the party then maybe we would see that.

I was livid when the corporate Voltron formed around Biden in the 2016 primary and he rose from no shot to shoe in for the nomination. I'm sure when we see the runners for the next primary the discourse will be far from civil, but I think the DNC are pretty undemocratic in that process.
