Elections What to do with the Progressives in the Democrat party?

[that Indian]

I used to 'identify' as a progressive but gradually moved away from their extremist groupthink.

I still have no problem with them being around. But voters essentially are a market and the democrats just got a lesson in supply and demand. If they stick around, they will have to adapt or die.

That's not "open border". Bottom line is the most far reaching and bipartisan immigration bill in years was agreed upon until Trump put the brakes on it.

Were you an advocate of Trump's way of separating kids from their families?

lol

 

[lowlife]

We need go start calling them something else. "Progressive" shouldn't be a bad thing, progress is good. Liberal extremism is not "progressive."

 

[Kassitus]

Some of them are finally starting to wake up from being woke, this is a New York congressman

Anybody ever call me LatinX and ole Pete is coming at them like an obese spider monkey

The Latinx thing always cracks me up. I can't even say it without laughing.

 

[White Whale]

Cenk Uyger is actually correct in this Interview when he said Democrats need to be populists.

 

[UberHere]

Got a source for that? I must have missed this.

No you didn’t miss it unless you were in a coma the last 4 years. You’re just playing dumb. Again.


Unless you’re not playing

Lots of cope from the left. “People didn’t reject my ridiculous politics, the problem was that I wasn’t ridiculous enough!”

That's a compliment coming from anyone who backed a guy who went on stage and talked about how people were eating dogs.

Musk said to embrace pain and that hardship are on the way. Maybe it’s done on purpose so the rich can buy more shit lol. I honestly don’t know which is why I don’t support him. His economic policies sound terrible. People call me a dumbass for saying this but I really don’t think our economy is that bad. Gas prices are down, inflation going down, we’ve had the best recovery from Covid compared to other nations. I think Americans had it good for a long time and don’t think things can get much worse instead. Maybe this will be a much needed wake up call.

Some of the policies the even further improve the economy are set to kick in next year and 2026. And like always Republicans are just gonna take credit for that. Hell dont forget as the economy slowly started to improve Trump openly attributed it himself, saying that the reason the stock market was good was because the wealthy knew he was going to win the next election or some sh*t.

Deport their asses

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

There's almost nothing progressive about Kamala. Trying to appear bipartisan instead of galvanizing her base is what cost her the race

this. op is retarded.

 

[nostradumbass]

Round them all up into a cargo net and fling it into California and build another wall around that too. They've gotten everything they want there for decades and in just a few decades turned it from the best state in the country to a wasteland of rolling blackouts, the most homeless people in the country, human shit and syringes on the streets, the lowest literacy rate in the country and $200k income required to buy the median home.

We need go start calling them something else. "Progressive" shouldn't be a bad thing, progress is good. Liberal extremism is not "progressive."

Parasite is a more appropriate term.

yeah the prosecutor who ran on border enforcement, support of israel, law and order, and ignoring trans people was too woke. the democratic party is going to die and i couldn't be happier.

 

[plataoplombo]

I remember a time where they wanted to put us in concentration camps. So maybe that. Oh and they shouldn't be allowed in public spaces either.

are you a hispanic immigrant or something?

Progressive policy built the strongest middle class in the world.
Most problems in this country are a result of abandoning them in favor of pro corporatism started under Reagan

 

[Senzo Tanaka]

The progressive hijacking of the Democratic party was a huge reason they lost. Also for me, it was just the constant lies and hyperbolic statements. Obama just a few days ago did the "he said good people on both sides!" line and said that "someone" at the Trump rally called Puerto Ricans trash. Oh, you mean a roast comedian?

People that aren't in a bubble and actually research these issues know that this stuff is fake. I don't even like Trump but you don't have to lie or be misinformed about these issues. You could have beat Trump on policy but they went with the racist, sexist, bigot, name calling route without any real evidence. It was all rhetoric and taking things out of context.

 

[Shaun K]

We could start by not calling them progressives. They’re socialists/communists/deep state puppets.

True progressives give birth to amazing movements that fix real world problems. They are not the same.
