It's almost as though -maybe, just maybe- the people who are registered Republicans like the Republican Party.
For this groundbreaking insight, I'll take my $20k/month consulting fee from the DNC now.
If you didn't vote, or voted third party, because the Democrat candidate wasn't "Left enough" for you, then like it or not you got exactly what you voted for.
You have to vote like we have the system we have, not like we have the system you want.
Stein got 0.6 million votes. Over a hundred million stayed at home. I sincerely doubt that each of those hundred million is a dyed-in-the-wool anti-electoralist, so why focus on the "Not left enough" people? They had no effect on the election one way or another, just like they kept telling you. Your problem is that the majority of people in this country are completely alienated from politics. If you continue to focus on the left to the exclusion of the Democrats' very real shortcomings, if you continue to ignore DNC's failure to offer a winning platform to everyday people, then you are damning us all to an eternity of the current moment.
How's that "Schumer Strategy" working out for ya?
The DNC knew it would fail. That was the plan. Perhaps not this spectacularly, but they knew it wouldn't work. They did their job. They defended the interests of Capital.
America's far left is just normal shit.
"Hey how about everybody gets food and can see the doctor"
"How about suck my dick and be my slave"
"Whoa whoa you two, let's be civil. Especially you, first guy 😠"
Too scared of the spooky communism👻👻
A spectre is haunting the United States 👻
America's left is normal shit, but the far-left is much the same as it is everywhere else, Marxists and Anarchists.
