Make meaningful change in the DNC. You know, like my comment said. Look what Trump did to the RNC. He completely reshaped that party. Obama left it floundering so he can make money giving speeches.

I feel like you're giving WAY too much credit to Trump. Did Trump change the RNC? Or was he just the catalyst that allowed the RNC to become what they always wanted to become? All he did was rally the base like no other politician on either side really has. The RNC just saw that as an opportunity.

Yes, he did that much to change the RNC. He put his daughter in law as the head of the RNC so he could threaten to primary people that didn't do what he wants. He did that during the time he wasn't president...

I guess I just disagree. IMO, that’s not his responsibility.

Cheers, mate!

That's fair, but what is the point of hiring a leader of a party if they're not going to lead that party? The democrats have had that problem since I've been alive. They seem to always just hope some charismatic person arises instead having a true direction. It's an inherent problem with being a "big tent" party. Trying to please everyone you end up pleasing no one.

No, that is his only responsibility. He was a servant of the people, not the other fucking way around.

Servant of his sponsors, as all of them

[–] papitoooo@lemmy.zip 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

And he served the people until his term ended, no?

[–] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

That's something that could be debated. He didn't do many of the things he campaigned on. Gitmo is still going... He was a massive let down for the people that voted for him to be a disruptor.

Alright, fair enough…but comparatively… lol
