        In some places it's the only way to vote in the primary elections. The primaries is our chance to advance dsa candidates. (Reluctant Dem)

        The "villain" is capitalism and neither of those guys can "fix" capitalism.

        Sanders is the MOST popular Pol in America, anyone else fronting the party would be an absolute mistake. I don't really trust Perez though

        Respectfully, yes... Let's save most of energy fighting against Trump. I'm tired of the infighting but also never willing to back down.

        Pelosi thinks it's immutable. Democrats have killed their party as much as Republicans have theirs. Somebody got to vomit this paradigm up!
