I’ll keep saying it, the DNC is a sunk cost. You will keep trying to get them to stand up for you; get them to care; get them to fight. They will keep taking your energy; taking your money; taking your vote and do nothing with it.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

MODERATORS
Because our money isn't their primary funding. They only raise a lot off of us every 4 years. Republicans spend that amount they raise every year or more. Especially if you count the Media consolidation and controlled messaging. There is nothing like it for democrats.
So they rely on many of the same large corporate donors who are just playing the entire field. To their own benefit. It makes for very strange bedfellows. They need their money to advertise and operate. But they need our votes in order to actually hold office. So when things come to a head and start competing the funding wins every time. They can lose comfortably and continue to do what they're doing. But winning means giving up the easy cash and putting in hard work. It all goes back to Reagan breaking the unions. It's why there's such a disconnect these days. Labor used to be the primary funder of the democrats. And now they're just still talking point.
The bribes. Dollars to doughnuts every single traitorous Dem has offshore accounts and other hidden assets.
I don't disagree but at the same time I'm always appalled at how cheap they sell our government out for. If selling government is the only way to beat Republicans then let's do it above the board. Fuck your fancy dinners. Fuck your galas. You want to put a price tag on my rights lets make sure you got the numbers right.

Why even be there then? This is terrifying.
Spineless & Greedy!
It's the Schumer & Pelosi show!
