    “We must raise the standard of living for our members and the entire working class through unity, solidarity, and working-class power,” said Fain. “No matter who is in the White House.”

    Noting that “in a democracy, the four most important words are: The People Have Spoken,” Fain suggested that the Democratic Party did not convince a key constituency—working people, including an estimated 78% of Americans who live paycheck-to-paycheck—that it represents their interests, and as a result handed the presidential victory to President-elect Donald Trump.

    And mainstream Dems are proving Fain’s point by doing a complete 180 and just being fine with trump coming back into power.

    Newsome’s doing some grandstanding in Cali that should have been decades ago, but it’s disappointing the majority seem content to just chill till the run up to the next election. Well,

    And I don’t mean the next couple years won’t be shit for us, but for them…

    They just don’t really care, and that’s why they keep losing.
