What's up with 2024?
Over the past 10-20 years the DEM Party has veered to the Right...
Swapping spit with Liz Cheney, canonizing Adam Kinziger, Bill Kristol and even Dick Cheney...
Ukraine War... folks pumping their fist like RW'ers on the Eve of "Shock and Awe" in Iraq on the eve of Shrub's illegal war.
It's a full on proxy war and has brought the planet closer to nuclear war than ever before... much more dangerous than the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Why does the current Party clash with the ACLU?
WTF? Liberals used to fight for free speech. The ACLU fought for Nazis in Skokie and Nazis in Charlottesville for fuck sake.
Nowadays, folks want to silence, delete and punish speech they don't like.
The US Justice system... remember the days of the pony tailed, pot smoking defense lawyer who would fight "the man"?
Nope, nowadays folks promote taking businesses away from people, "locking them up" and lickspittle support of LEO.
And who da fuck thought it's a good idea to place WEDGE ISSUES at the forefront of the political fight?
Look at Bill Clinton or Barack Obama... working class folks didn't feel threatened by either.
Today the working class flocks to Trump.
Stop crowing about the economy. Pull a Clinton and talk to the US people, "feel their pain" and make proposals that are targeting the poor.
And stop blaming the voters.
The DEMS parked a metaphorical Greek Food Truck at the corner of Mission and Garey in Pomona CA while Trump parked a Taco Truck.
SELL a better product.
Trump won the battle but not the war. But we need new Generals and a new strategy.
Note to prospective Jurors: This was posted in the new "Way Forward" forum which allows and encourages constructive criticism.
PS and never EVER push candidates who haven't proved themselves in the bitter fire of a national Primary fight... let DEMOCRATS decide. And certainly don't push candidates with a history of being a poor campaigner.
