They also thought Hilary was going to win in a landslide. It's laughable how dumb the DNC is and how they think they know so much better than the American population. The primaries happened l. It's over. He's who we're stuck with
I think you may be mistaken if you're implying that the DNC is the entity that is trying to get Biden to step aside.
The DNC is currently engaged in an all-out effort to lock Biden in by getting delegates to commit before convention. Those who are trying to get him to step aside, on the other hand, are a bunch of Democratic congressional representatives, donors, and other party figures -- not the national party committee itself.
Edit -- just since yesterday, apparently the DNC has dropped its plan to hold the "roll call" by which they were going to get their delegates committed before August. A group of Democratic senators who had written and co-signed a letter in protest of that activity have withdrawn the letter, saying their purpose is achieved (i.e., saying the DNC isn't going ahead with the bullshit). But now maybe all bets are off since the president has contracted COVID?
They did this to us, they deserve it. They have been doing it for decades to protect neolib rule and have set up the "lesser of two evils" bs for my entire life. I'm sure your namesake isn't very happy with them either.
I'm sure he's not unhappy with them enough to say he'd be happy when they get the wall when Trump is elected.
No one, fucking no one, deserves fascism, and you saying otherwise shows just how privileged and out of touch you really are.
I'm not privileged in the slightest, I'm incredibly pissed off that we're going to have to go through this because of them. I'm pissed off for all the people who will absolutely suffer because of them.
Is what you could say to the literal fascists trying to take over the country, but no, instead you'd rather criticize elected liberals because they aren't fighting in exactly the way you want then to fight.
You can't blame a wolf for being a wolf. Republican fascists are a lost cause, they're the wolves acting like wolves. Of course I'm pissed at them, but it really feels like the DNC is trying to cling on to the old ways so hard that they're willing to damn us all.
They could be better if they gave a shit about people. I dont think Republicans can be better than they are. They are finally allowed to take the mask off and be who they always were.
Then get rid of the wolf, once the wolf is gone you can start your fight with the person you think was too timid in fighting the wolf, but until you get rid of the wolf, every time you stop to chastise the timid, the wolf gets an opportunity to strike.
