Am I the only one who thinks if the Democratic party couldn’t win this election it’s time for them to go the way of the Whigs? It seems obvious to me that this party has become a liability to this country and if they cared about it they would get out of the way and let a new party step up.

    Dumbest god damn idea on earth. End the Republican party. Replace it with a real party for the Democrats, the conservative party, to lose to.

    But there’s no elections anymore so it’s all fan fic anyway.

      we’re faced with an opposition of 40-47% of reliable conservative/racist/misogynist voters, apparently.

      couple with apathy: 20 million people who voted for biden didn’t vote for harris.

      the only hope left-leaning polity has relies on the the combination of apathetic voters, liberal voters, and potentially populations further to the left.

      this is undermined by the actions of the dnc, repeatedly. How do you reform it/overthrow it from corporate democratic neo-liberal or centrist policy to really change the system? I really don’t know.
