It's wild to me that democrats by and large haven't realized that the DNC is holding them back. I'll never forgive them for picking Hillary over Bernie. How different would things be now if Bernie had been the nominee?
The approval rating of the Democratic Party has dropped to a record low. People are seeing the grift.
That's like assigning arriving patients at the ER their own room and asking them to report their self-diagnosis and treatment back to the front desk.
The DNC cannot fix itself. The system has evolved this way because the money flowing to DNC has allowed them to remain powerful but not challenging the power structure.
I think you’re giving the DNC too much credit. They didn’t “pick” Hillary…she cheated and colluded with Debbie Wasserman Schultz to steal the nomination from Bernie.
I'm still in favor of many individual Democratic candidates even if many people are waking up to the misuse of power at the top.
A lot of people are wowed by their theoretical policies, and then decide to run as candidates under their platform. Very few of their politicians ever get "A Crash Course In How To Appeal To Money" as a result of that allegiance. So unless anyone wants to suggest kinks in this plan, we can hate the institution democrats and still support the progressive democrats; and I think there are far more of the latter than the former. It just means people facing a local election have to actually read through someone's life story, as opposed to "Oh, they're the Democrat? Great, then them."
The Republican Party also went through a similar transition (for the worse) as Trump took it over.
the gop cant win without TRUMP, or his endorsement.
I'd take a look at the workings of Scientology, invented by L. Ron Hubbard. Even long after the founder's death, and his admission that it was a gigantic hoax, the cult kept going for a long time. I'd find it likely many in the GOP could invent a platform "in Donald Trump's memory".
The worries shift and become clearer once it's made apparent that it's a cult.
