Manchin and Sinema say "No" and the whole party bows to them; progressives keep saying "Yes" so the party doesn't bow to them ever. Can anyone explain this to me?

Yes. Manchin is where most of the party is and he is their way out of progressive lies because of the state he’s in while they bullshit their liberal constituency.

@marwilliamson it was the brilliance of #BernieSanders to force a vote on the $15 #RaiseTheWage bill. We actually got to see which Senators voted for the people, and which ones, Democrats and Republicans, Cow towed to their corporate overlords in maintaining starvation wages

Luckily we still have a moderate or we’d all be f*cked

#1 reason: millions of dollars in the bribery of politicians, legal and illegal. I would even suggest it likely over a billion dollars has been invested in keeping politicians as the whores of corporate U.S.

The Democorpse party is a hopeless political carcus. Time to move on.

Corporate owned leadership.

True progressives gave us this slim 'majority' we have. We need more of them.
