“I’m not interested in anyone who is moving further away from the center,” said Cindy Bass, a Pennsylvania committee member from Philadelphia. “The center is where we have to be.”
They're not going to change a thing unless people make them.
Dems are basically dead at this point. (Coming from a Dem that fully supported Harris).
We need a new leader with a vision.
Only thing to do now unfortunately is help and watch MAGA eat themselves.
Dem party chair will have to be fresh face.
It is truly a reset point for the Democrat Party.
Getting my predictions in now: the 2028 Democratic nominee will be running on a platform of making the extermination of trans people 10% more efficient, people will say that you have to vote for them because at least they don't also want to exterminate gay people, the Republicans will flip New Jersey, and the DNC will conclude that they should've run on exterminating the gays too.
These people have completely lost the plot. Being progressive on social issues is the only thing they have to offer, because they can't be progressive on economic issues because of their donors. If you're not going to adopt an economic platform that would actually address people's needs, and you're also abandoning us queer "freaks," then what are you even going to run on? Fucking NAFTA? What, are you running a campaign to try to get elected president or to try to get appointed a mod on r/neoliberal?
I'd ask how people with such terrible political instincts are even relevant to making these decisions, but I already know the answer is money.
If the democratic party continues to move to the right to try and stay in the center, it will most likely continue to lose. We the people demand representation with actual left candidates.
Would this be "State Democratic Party chairs?" I'm not really sure how the party is structured and who votes. And apparently, the chair for my state resigned.
Donald Trump's numbers barely changed from 2020 to 2024. He won because Democrat numbers collapsed. So their answer is to give their own voters even less to be excited about?
These people are truly idiots. I mean truly and deeply imbeciles. There's no other word to describe them. How can they stand up and say the problem is the party politicked too hard on woke? Who did? Show me that campaign ad. I never saw it. The mere fact they are even saying that is why they cannot win. They're incapable of victory. They have completely surrendered The Narrative to Republicans. They have completely and utterly allowed their opponents to frame them and accepted their opponents framing. There is simply no way to win if you do that. It's simply moronic.
Kill this party. We have to. The only way forward is to blow up the Democratic party. This is our one chance. They've already dealt themselves such a blow we barely have to do anything. Don't rally around a candidate. Leave. The worst thing that could happen has already happened. Now's the one chance to smash it and start something new.
