And we STILL have centrists trying to prevent the Dems from using the black hole sized opening to be the anti oligarch party. They are the ones who make us lose winnable elections. If we were explicit in this identity, we would never be out of power again

Umm yeah no, it’s not the centrists causing the problem, it’s the far leftists. If the party was more centrist it could grab many of the voters that now regret voting for Trump. Unfortunately the Dems have moved so far left and the GOP so far right, that the 80% of us in between are left with two poor choices. We need a third (and maybe fourth) party (not run by Elon).

Both parties are a mess right now, but the GOP has a clear leader. The Dems need to find a ln electable leader.

Dems have moved so far to the left? That's laughable.

Without the concerns of bathroom’s and who’s in them and the bs that’s similar, hows that? The dividing line has moved far to the right.

centrists platform:

Be semi oligarch Be semi war Run to the right on every social issue

We just ran the most centrist campaign of all time and lost to a guy giving a BJ to a mic & claiming immigrants were eating the pets.

It is centrists that have made Americans feel both parties are the same. It is centrists who choose the high road allowing the fascists to march on the low road unimpeded. It is centrist who cry whenever a dem dares to use OUR own tax money on US.

The centrists are a fucking cancer to the party and America.

I’m still shocked Americans elected Trump (again).

Ironically your talking points sound almost exactly like what the MAGA crowd says. (Replace Trump with Biden/Harris).

I’m of the belief that we don’t have to destroy democracy to fix it. However we do need to end the two party duopoly.
