This is why we need a real worker's party, because this party is dead, and refuses to change.

A Reuters/Ipsos poll released Thursday found that 62 percent of Democrats said “party leaders should be replaced,” 49 percent of Democratic respondents said they were “unsatisfied with current leadership” and 41 percent said they disagreed with the sentiment that they were unsatisfied with leadership.

Here is what the democrats do, call in the big guns to squash progressives. Obama did it to end Bernie, and here is who they called in to aid your boy Cuomo;

My apologies for my last post, I missed a word or two because I was short on sleep. I'm on your side. You showed proof they don't work for the people, and Optional just ignored your citations. Not a shocker from them.

[–] rodneyck@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago

No problem, and agree.

Gotta love how you brought in documents to show him wrong and went "lol I win, bye bye."

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world -4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I thought so. You have no idea what you're doing.

Help or get out of the way.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Maybe you should take your own advice

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world -2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Help who? or What?

Everybody who's shitting on the Democrats like our intrepid "lefty" above has no plan, no details, and no understanding of national politics.

It's all "okay the Democrats lost. Hooray! . . . um" and that's what's so stupid.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

And you also don't have a plan, details, or an understanding of politics.

The current Democrats and their supporters are the very definition of "not helping, but in the way".

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world -2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Excellent - so you can answer the question then.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Can you?

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world -1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

YES. That's the whole point. The Democrats have a platform and a name on the ballot.

What is the offered alternative? I'd love to hear it! but there's never anything.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Their platform is we're not the republicans in name

They've listed off ideas and you ignore or shoot them down because it may hurt the dems when the dems have proven to be a complete ineffective party that work against citizens. They are just better at hiding it optically

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world -2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Who's listed off what ideas? I haven't seen any.

"We hate the democrats" yeah, I got it - what else is in there? Anything useful? Practical?

Because you're the third or fourth person to respond to that question with nothing.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

you also have no answer to that question!

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 month ago

No they do, don't change anything
