      But she was right about everything!

      The part that really hurts is that it seems like the Democrats are setting themselves up to do it again.

          She was right he was Putin’s puppet.

          She was right he was going to give away tons of tax money to the ultra wealthy

          She was right he didn’t know shit about foreign policy

          She was right he’s a demented rapist

          She was right about so much more than his idiot cult were deplorable.

              Absolutely not, no, but neoliberals tend to blame other people for that and everything else she’s ever done wrong or wrongly neglected to do.

                That’s hardly fair. They blame only those to their left.

                  Not necessarily. Just the other day, I got in an argument with one who solely blamed Wasserman-Schulz (who rightly deserves SOME of the blame) for the DNC screwing over Bernie, even though it was at the behest of the Clinton campaign, which was DE FACTO in charge of the DNC at the time 🤦

        Liberalism, by definition, is a set of values that maintains that all social and political problems can be addressed via existing power structures and systems.

        The current democratic party is about as liberal as they come, with many bordering on neo-liberal, which is just a new way to say “old fashioned republican.”

        They may look neutered and impotent and terrible at planning, but they’re right where they want to be. They maintain power but can also use the excuse of not being able to get past Republican obstructionism so that’s why they haven’t pushed major political reform.

        The system is only broken for those it’s not benefitting directly.

        (You don’t have to like them, but you need to vote for them right now because I rather have a grifters in charge than evil grifters who want to bring about the dark-ages all over again.)

        Except the bit about assuming she could easily beat trump.
