Either that, or recognize that there's a Democrat running who represents the agenda of the actual base of the party. Some among the Democratic elite would rather lose in 2024 than consider the possibility that someone who's not "one of them" is the one who would win. Democratic corporatists act like progressives are trying to hijack the party. In fact THEY are the ones who hijacked the party. We're Franklin and Eleanor; they're the Duponts and the Morgans.
The Democratic Party are on their third strike for a large number of 45 and younger voters. And they are wasting their third strike on Biden. ☑️Strike 1– 2016 should have been a wake up call for the Democratic Party. Not even because Trump was elected, but because their constituents loudly supported a Democratic Socialist, who with 0 establishment support, small $ donations & little political savvy, almost won the primaries. It was clear then how out of touch the Dem Establishment was with their base. ☑️☑️Strike 2–Rather than make changes to represent their constituents, they insisted on another establishment candidate, making the lazy choice to bank on “getting Trump out” to get votes. All liberals sucked it up and voted for the establishment candidate. ☑️☑️☑️Strike 3–Their establishment candidate has alienated at least half of his base & rather than reform the party, they once again have ignored their base and are running an 81 year old man for President. The Establishment Dems refuse to change & are running the party like totalitarians. For this to really be a democracy, we need parties that are willing to change to reflect the people it purports to represent!

Marianne, you speak of ending the war on drugs which I support, but can you talk about how we can do this without ending up with crises like we have seen in major cities in Oregon and Washington? Such as excess homelessness, crime, and drug abuse? #WarOnDrugs

lol you just used a comment from a Palestinian American with a doctorate. And then say Palestine and especially Gaza isn’t Occupied by Israel and tell a Palestinian or Arab American that she is wrong about what she says she saw and experienced there and act as if you know more… You really just did that.? Not very redeemable. Glad you want the war to stop but also clear you will have a solution in mind and feel entitled and better than Palestinian People to decide their future. That makes you only useful to the extend you fight with us for a ceasefire..and then all we can do is pray you otherwise keep your mouth closed and are not elected. Talk about White Opportunism and liberal racism ..l

I will be voting decent third party this presidential cycle. Neither party really represents new generation.

Is it too much to ask that the next president, the most important job in the nation, have experience governing? Your ideas are lovely. But I'm tired of boomers. If I'm going to go with a candidate with no elected experience, I'm going with #JonStewart.

Biden won in 2020 because people don’t want to vote for socialism. Not yet, at least. Corbyn, Foot, McGovern, Sanders - avowed socialists generally lose in Anglo countries. If you were popular it wouldn’t matter that the establishment hates you. Trump proved that.

The Democrats aren't a political party any more, and haven't been since before 2016, when Hillary took it over and put the DNC up for sale to the highest bidder. The Democratic Party is now a criminal syndicate, with rules to match. Loyalty is the only priority.

Prove it by not endorsing Biden next month. Or, better yet, LEAVE THE CORRUPT DEMOCRAT POLITICAL PARTY and DECLARE YOUR POLITICAL INDEPENDENCE. It is the only credible way forward for you.

There is only one strategy that can win a fair outcome in a rigged game (or election) and you are nowhere close to realizing that strategy, in fact what you are doing is pretty much the opposite.
