Since losing against the most unpopular Republican candidate since, well, forever, the Democrats have had two political messages, 1) ScaryRussia, and 2) Trump Yuck!
If they thought this was going to win over the American public, they might want to rethink that.
The Democratic Party favorability hit a new all-time low. Gee, maybe they aren't talking about Russia enough?
It's no surprise that Republicans hate Democrats, but it's a problem that only 23% of Independents like Democrats. The only good news in this poll is that people hate Republicans even more.
Considering the arrogance and open contempt that the Democratic Party has treated the grassroots with for the past two years, I was surprised to see this today.
Like the DNC before it, the DCCC brand has become so toxic that even Democratic voters are rejecting it. The inflection point was reached two weeks ago in Texas’ 7th Congressional District when the DCCC attacked a progressive candidate like a Republican would.
Just because the psychopaths on one side start it, does that mean the other side that participates aren't psychopaths as well? Doesn't it take two to tango? At least for "our" purposes?
Nancy Pelosi wasn't going to be embarrassed like Diane Feinstein was. Pelosi was going to get that Democratic Party endorsement one way or the other.
Are progressives democrats? And since it's a fact that the Democratic party, not just the "corporate democrats" and not just the "democratic party establishment", THE democratic party officially FULLY SUPPORTS U.S. imperialism, are progressives also imperialist warmongers?
I simply can't get over how so many liberals want to openly reject white, working class voters. Can you imagine the reaction if they wanted to reject any other demographic?
Let's look at some headlines first.
