Unity means, "Sit down and shut up while we hand the Republicans another election by kowtowing to corporate interests and throwing workers under the bus."

Unity means, "Sit down and shut up while we hand the Republicans another election by kowtowing to corporate interests and throwing workers under the bus."
- AnimalMuppet 7y agoMaybe so. But unity on the far-left terms means "Sit down and shut up while we hand the Republicans another election by proposing tons of free stuff that gives sticker shock to anyone who can do math." What Democrats actually need is, first, to genuinely care about the working-to-middle class rather than just regard them as a pool of votes that they are entitled to receive, and second, to propose policies that the majority of people think will actually help. I don't see anyone, either centrist or not, who fits the bill.

I'll vote straight Democrat no matter what because I prefer champagne socialists over fascists and dominionists, but my money is on the GOP to win unless the Democrats grow some backbones and learn how to beat the GOP at their own crooked game.
