    Dems need to drop this whole “please the right” schtick too

    What “please the right”??? Pleasing the right was Trump campaign.

      Campaigning with Cheneys, promising full support for a zionist genocide, backing off from universal healthcare and trans rights. Need I go on?

        Considering that Trump won, that wasn’t actually pleasing the right wasn’t it?

        But dems are free to go full in on these things and fail the second time.

          I think it was pleasing enough to right-wing billionaires (sorry for the tautology) - both the campaign itself and the ultimate failure.

      We’re referring to the rhetoric that happens every single time the Democrats get a smidge of power. “We need to reach across the aisle”, “It’s time to let the healing begin” and my all time favorite, “impeachment is off the table.”

      THAT shit has to stop and we won’t get it by re-electing establishment Democrats.

        The last Dem to get a smidge of power for 2 years was Barack Obama and he passed the weakened ACA with it. He maintained his all-important legacy as a very white-seeming non-controversial black man.
