"This is the behavior of a crazy person.

Trump is a massive failure as president. He has allowed a genocidal monster to take over the foreign policy of the United States.

Trump has permitted Netanyahu to drag America to the threshold of war with Iran."

    You know what made this happen is a bunch of so-called leftists who make voting for the President (or even worse, withholding their vote) their only political act.

    We could change the world if we’d unite and get involved in primaries and get out and inspire and educate. But instead we sit at our computers and shitpost and laud our own supposed moral superiority and deride other leftists who are only slightly different than us while everything in the real world just gets incrementally worse and worse.

      WHAT FUCKING PRIMARIES? We didn’t have any last year because your shitty wing of the party decided we shouldn’t have a choice. After all, we might choose someone who wasn’t hell bent on wiping out Gaza like party leadershit wanted.

        I’m specifically talking about EACH AND EVERY FUCKING PRIMARY. No one except a small bunch of boomers ever bothers to take part in these. You’re proving my point by instantly assuming that presidential primaries are the only primaries. This is a crisis that has only been enabled over decades by the apathy and lack of participation of leftists.

          You’re proving my point by instantly assuming that presidential primaries are the only primaries.

          The party denying us all a choice because they prefer genocide to letting their voters choose their candidate is emblematic of a deeper issue within the party and its primary system. I can provide additional examples of the party’s malfeasance during the primaries. That was just the most glaring.

          This is a crisis that has only been enabled over decades by the apathy and lack of participation of leftists.

          This is a crisis because the party runs dishonest primaries when it deigns to run them at all.
