I highly doubt the left will do anything uncivil. How can they win back the country? Is it too late?

    THIS is the moment where everyone should be creating 3rd party candidates and going to the streets to spread awareness for the next election.

    Not 6 months before the election with trump as a possibility. Get out there and promote 3rd party now, when people are pissed at Democrats for throwing it all away for Israel and people are pissed the trump won.

      IMO third party is not viable unless we change our voting system, but people keep voting out the progressive reform party so fat chance.

      EDIT: 100% for independents in Congress tho, as long as it doesnt split the vote for progressives.

      Do you really think they lost over their stance on Israel/Palestina? Not saying it doesn’t matter. But I feel if you see how many votes republicans got, that a lot of (perceived) domestic issues played a very big role.

        20 million people did not stay home over Palestine. People aware of that issue are also acutely aware of the fact Trump would be worse.

        Apparently a lot of apathy among dem voters, or they also think a strongman for a while would be OK.

      No, 3rd party will always be spoiler at best with the election system we have… Now is the time to figure out who runs the local Dems in your state/county/city/town and take them over… We need to take over the Dems and transition them to the party of the future

      Dnc komissars are brain dead… Another bullshit campaign they botched… 2016 vibes failed again…

      Either way, these regime whores are useless.

      3p is the only way for a chance of any fucking reform.

      Until then beatings will continue…
