You don't get to poo poo all over people for years if not decades and then throw a fit when those people no longer support you. I mean you can, as this thread shows, but it's not going to win you an election, as 2016 showed. Besides Biden has repeatedly told people who disagree with him not to vote for him. Congrats Joe, we found a policy we can agree on!

I'd still say its worth it to try at the local level. The tea party just didn't hit the national stage at the first crack. In my home town, we had a movement very similar to the tea party start to hit the county seats WAYYY before I heard about the official tea party. If you want to move the big DNC with progressive candidates - get them at the local and state level. They have a much more direct impact on schools, roads, public transit, rent control, etc. I get the big Bernie ideas aren't going to happen and that sucks (I've never voted for Biden in a primary), but please continue that push to get the right people for down ticket races.

Gerrymandering at the federal level has me in a progressive's district as I live in a black part of town so I'm tallied up with Jacksonville instead of people down the street from me. The other federal district (and more populous portion) is either chuds or centrist democrats. It is not possible to get progressive persons elected locally despite a lot of effort because the voting base, even if technically democratic, is extremely conservative. I really just need to get out of north florida because I cannot change how people are here.

I wonder if we have even a single pro trump gipper? We’ve got our conservatives, but none have any support or love for trump and most have said they didn’t vote for him. (I’m inclined to believe them.) My family admits to voting for him, but I don’t think I’ve met a goon in the wild that voted trump and will admit it. Then again I read GiP and a handful of carefully curated bookmarked threads from other sub forums. So I don’t really have my finger on SA’s pulse or anything.

I mean, I get why Kawasaki Nun is so pissy. You can get shithammered in C-SPAM for even suggesting that maybe Bernie Sanders (PBUH) isn't the only possible answer and D&D isn't much better, and it's incredibly frustrating to hear people screaming that Trump is godawful but they won't vote for the opposing candidate because ~*~reasons~*~.

Some people want more change than simply pretending Trump didn't happen. Supporting the guy who brags about building the systems we rail against is a non-starter.

Trump is change, just not for the better for most people on earth. Know what does need to change and is entirely within the DNC's control? Same day primaries across the country. This slapdash bullshit needs to end, I don't give a gently caress if New Hampshire and Iowa get mad about it. An artificially inflated importance of a segment of an electorate is bad for democracy.

A national primary would be awful but they should absolutely refocus to have states they might actually have a chance of winning go first. Yes, I'm aware I'm further disenfranchsing myself but it 100% doesn't matter what SC dems think because they will never, ever deliver electors in november

Have yall ever looked at how many layers there are between primary voters and the actual DNC? "The Party’s basic organization, from local to state level, is: • PrecinctVolunteer • PrecinctCommitteeperson (one per precinct, plusVice-Committeeperson) • CountyCommittee andCountyChair (elected by fellow PCs and VCs) • DistrictCommittee and DistrictChair (elected by fellow CountyChairs, Vice Chairs) • State Committee (composed of DistrictChairs andVice Chairs, DNC members and constituencycaucuses) • State Executive Committee and State Chair (elected by State Committee members; Deputy Chairs appointed byChair)" From there the state committee elects who they send to the national committee. So we didn't vote for Tom Perez, you MAYBE voted for a precinct member who voted for a county member who voted for a district member who voted for a state member who voted on whom to send to the DNC who voted to elect Tom Perez the chair of the party.

I was a Warren supporter, then she walked back on Medicare for all and supported the coup in Bolivia, and I realized the Bernie Bros were right again and switched. And just to preempt the inevitable reply, yes, saying "I'll send a bill for Medicare for all...after midterms" is a walk back unless you were literally born yesterday.

I realize this is hard to understand but I would have voted for literally any dem candidate that wasn't a rapist or bloomberg. And if it comes out that the rape allegation is unfounded I'll vote for biden while pissing, making GBS threads and vomiting all over myself in the ballot box but I'll do it.
