FDR Democrats work unapologetically and unabashedly to support the working people of the United States. But we are only part of the Democratic Party today, as the corporatist wing of the party is all for making people feel better - but only so far as it doesn’t challenge profit maximization for their major corporate donors. Wall Street clearly still owns both major parties - and while the Republicans are definitely much worse, that cannot remain our excuse forever. The point should not be to help people *survive* an unjust system; it should be to *end* an unjust system. In the richest country in the world, the economy shouldn't be so hard for the average American to survive. We need more than the alleviation of stress; we need fundamental economic reform. That is the agenda that will beat the Republicans in 2024.

Stop with this nonsense about FDR Democrats. First, there are no FDR Democrats Second, that MF is from 80 years ago. If there isn’t anyone else worth mentioning from within that 80 years maybe the whole party IS the problem.

You should probably avoid discussing your imaginary friends while campaigning for president.

FDR Democrats have been extinct for years. Dems are all Joe Manchin all the time now.
