and they continue to threaten to withhold their votes while screaming about ineffective dems. I talked this over with young non voters yesterday and said 'vote liberal or we are screwed' and they all nodded but f I hope they get it together
The original people who said that in 2015 were Black women who ended up backing Hillary and coincidentally didn't spread lies about her online in Spring of 2016, suppressing the vote.
If anything, woke-pretend white leftists have effectively canceled the power of the Black woman voter bloc.
All the left do is steal from democrats. The Bernie people are still blaming democrats for sanders losing to Hillary by 4 million votes, 9 years later!
What I really want to know from this people is; what is the roadmap to earning your vote? Lay out concrete steps that you need democrats to take to earn your vote. If you don’t have an answer or if it’s something stupid like ‘cancel child support’ then they are not worth anyone’s time.
The frustrating part of that is the constant goalpost moving - see Student Loan Debt. Biden/Harris did everything they could within the power they had and it was never enough - these voters are Goldilocks and they are not reliable.
Well, I did in fact vote for them to be in power! Therefore, I have the right to scream at them to quit cowering quietly under the blankets and start fucking fighting! So call me repugnant...I don't give a shit!
It's like people think the only thing going on is what they see on camera, no other actions exist without media. Congresspeople have entire jobs to do, have to figure out how to minimize damage, and people want theatrics to help them feel better🙄
Disagree. Telling Democrats to act and resist is necessary. Telling them we will withhold donations unless they fight is appropriate. I voted blue. I voted for them to fight. I didn’t vote for them to take a knee
If I have to read one more snarky smug comment about “gee it would be nice to have a real opposition party 🙄 DO SOMETHING!”
Such self defeating bullshit.
Also the constant claim that Dems are silent when they literally are issuing statements is annoying the shit out of me. I don’t want to defend Schumer all day but he is literally saying the stuff y’all are claiming he’s not
Which is the extent of what they CAN do right now. With minorities in both houses, the spinless GOP will never allow a single Dem bill out of committee.
Found someone on here doing this yesterday. Pissed me off to no end. Dems do the work and get none of the credit. Person even admitted not looking for any of what Dems were doing. Apparently it's okay to slag on Dems out of ignorance.
My theory is they just hate Schumer and this is Bitch Eating Crackers.
Schumer is no Harry Reid, but the way they hate him is so out of school. After the last 15 months, I'm just gonna say it: there's a lot of antisemitism roiling in left spaces online these days.
One kernal of truth, when the Dems had the majority, the gop still threw wrenchs in the system at every chance. We don't really have that same kind of ability.
I don't blame a lot of elected Democrats for waiting until people feel the consequences of voting for that man. People were warned and they didn't listen.
I voted for them. Some of them seem to have been caught off guard. Schumer and Jeffries have years of knowing how DJT operate and seem to have not planned accordingly. Thoughts and prayers don't cut it.
As in where were they on November 5th, or during early voting/vote by mail? Did any of them run for office?
If they didn't, maybe they should think about doing so if they don't like what's going on right now instead of these all or nothing demands that don't get accomplished.
And the ones for purity will never vote for the democrats, but they like to be included in the conversations, but when the things get tough, it's all performative nonsense.
JJ, I am furious at everyone doing that. I’m beginning to think this country deserves whatever happens & I really am beginning to understand why Dems don’t run for office. Damned if they do damned if they don’t. Who wants to endure that constantly?

Your theory about Schumer and Jeffries is obviously false.
