Democrats fight like hell all the time except when they're in office.
So many comments about them starting a new political party and I don't want to disagree but if democrats already have less votes than republicans now, wouldn't that make it even harder to win an election?
If democrats are worried about splitting the vote, they don't have to field a candidate.

Bernie is pushing the 2028 presidential candidates.
Then separate yourselves from the dems and create your own party. We will follow.
Absolutely. Dems are at an all time low of approval as far as I'm aware. This is the opportune time to make a new one. Enough with the weak responses to a threat that not only throws the US into chaos, but the rest of the world as well.
We need a democratic party that fights ... just that .. that will do something besides just expose their belly.
Now there's a ticket.
Their average age is just under 60. I'd vote for it, if I we're still allowing that kind of thing
I would love to see AOC and Bernie attempt to bring back the American labor party
Pick up where Debs left off
This is the answer. Dems are compromised. A new party is needed.
just make a new one already
What's wrong with the leftist third parties we already have?
The fact they exist and got us nowhere near a unified working class movement.
They're all sectarian and pointless. The party that takes us there will be formed by the popular working class movement

Dems are just a bunch of empty chairs.
Sucks, but it's also an opportunity. Plenty of space for progressives to move in and take over.
It's mostly the consultant class morons that suck. Both parties used to be full of consultants until 2010-2015 with the rise of the tea party / trumpism. The GOP kicked most of the consultants to the curb, but the Democrats are still running campaigns like it's 2008 and the voters give a shit about the color tie the candidate is wearing.
Harris would've been a good candidate had she not been market researched to death.
I obviously don't agree with TDS-having morons that believe that all experts are useless, but expertise should really be evaluated every once in a while. It's clear to me from my field that professional management and consultants are often goldbricking idiots with impressive resumes and few actual professional accomplishments.
