    How’s that “Schumer Strategy” working out for ya?

    The DNC knew it would fail. That was the plan. Perhaps not this spectacularly, but they knew it wouldn’t work. They did their job. They defended the interests of Capital.

      Yes, pass the buck to the DNC. They’re the ones that held the gun to your head and forced you not to vote against a fascist dictatorship.

      That sarcasm, by the way. I know how thick you people can be, so I thought I’d just point that out.

        Yeah, they’re just passing the buck to the people responsible for winning votes who made every decision about how to run the campaign that lost.

        That’s sarcasm, by the way. I know how thick you people can be, so I thought I’d just point that out.

          We’re adults here. It’s our choice to vote or not. I really dislike the implication that handholding voters to the ballot box is necessary. Yeah, the DNC f’s up plenty, but at the end of the day people that should have voted, didn’t.

            And I really dislike the implication that voters should be expected to change to meet the campaigns that politicians want to run as opposed to politicians changing their campaigns based around what the voters want.

            The blame should always go upwards, but instead it’s always pointed downward.
