    If they had done this shit a few years ago, then the Dems could have potentially held on to the senate or even flipped the house.

      You mean in 2020 when Biden won?

      When a dem becomes president, they name the DNC chair, and the DNC does a performative vote to confirm.

      So the voting members of the DNC didn’t have an opportunity to move the party left like they just did.

      If Kamala had won, she would have named a DNC chair just like the ones that had been fucking up.

      So to be clear, I held my nose and voted D like always.

      But if she had won the party would still be fucked. Settling for a neoliberal never fixed anything, because they knew if they let an unbiased DNC happen, progressives would take over the party.

      And that just happened.
