A big tent party that tries to squash all progressives. Look at the tricks, PAC’s & Billionaires that come out to stop everyone from Bernie & Nina Turner to India Walton & Jessica Cisneros. They are always up for that fight.

We have #Dem Primaries to pick the best candidate for the General. Problem is the #Dem establishment decides that person must be their current peer🙄? Not so in Oregon's #CD5! @JamieforOregon would MORE easily win in November. #OR5 Dems are ENERGIZED!🔥🗽💪

God if I have to hear “big tent” as an excuse one more time.

A big tent with those beholden to lobbyists, who are paid to thwart progressive initiatives, ethics, or voting rights is Manchin-light. Perhaps that IS America. IDK, but it leaves it an outlier among peer nations and susceptible to attacks from the extreme right.

The only people remotely energized by this pathetic carcass of a party are partisan hacks who represent it's rot.

it is so unfair that the republican-lite faction of the party is impeding the advancements that progressive dems could be making. the moderates were happy to -promise- change but they are standing in the way.
