    The DNC needs to go. All of it. Literally just gone. There needs to be a real left grassroots party that maintains a much more tight ideological vision and focuses internally.

    I could be wrong but polling I’ve seen says 83% of black men and 93% black women voted Democrat. Latinos and White people voted closer to 50% between the two parties

      Latinos were the biggest loss as far as I can tell. There is a host of reasons why this group crumbled.

      Let’s see how they like seeing family members deported.

        Not just family members.

        If you and your entire family are suddenly thrown in a cage, who are you gonna call to grab your birth certificate from the safe deposit box?

    I agree 100% we needed him. If you asked me 8 years ago I’d even say I honestly believe we, as Americns, deserve him. I’m now very seriously wondering that. It’s starting to feel like we don’t. Im against collective punishment so I don’t mean to say that implies people who are going to suffer from this deserve their suffering, but I’m not sure that implies we deserve a politician like him. Glad as hell we have him in whatever office we can though.

    Bernie beating Trump is a nice fantasy, but it wouldn’t happen either.

    This election was an information war, and the Democrats fought it like they’re in another century. And they’re going to lose again if they think sensible policy, however revolutionary and in-touch, and hopeful TV ads are how you win elections.

    They need their own form of MAGA. And they need to flood and poison the internet and airwaves just like the Republicans did.
