"Are we going to let them take over the party?"

They fuggen better

Democratic elections happening and selecting candidates that aren't from your carefully prepared inner circle? Unbelievable! It was the their turn?!!

Guards!! GUARDS!!!

They let Trump take over the country...

One Democratic lawmaker sitting in a battleground district told CNN that they are so concerned about the rise of the Democratic Socialists of America that they have recently begun having serious conversations with donors about leaving the party altogether.

The fact that their impulse is to get their donors opinions instead of their constituents is why they need to be primaried.

Let them take over? You must not be familiar with how a republic works.

"Let them" ? Excuse me?

Mother fucker in a real democracy YOU don't have any say in the matter. What you're seeing happen is the will of the people. Yes, you will "let us" vote for the candidates that we want to vote for.

Try to take that away, it's about all we (barely) have left. See what happens.

You already did, by refusing to listen to constituents. They’ve taken over, and that’s good.

"Oh my God! What if they take over and start doing things that actually benefit people?"

Really just yelling the quiet part to the nosebleeds, aren’t they?

It was never about helping their constituents. The moment someone outside of their inner circle becomes popular, the facade drops and it’s all about voting ‘correctly’ and the popular person ‘stealing’ the vote.

At least they pretended to not be vicious ghouls who don’t care about actual humans when they skipped over Bernie to hand the election to Trump.

"them" are the constituents and if they're taking over the party, it's working as intended.

Status quo democrats right now.

Yes

Controlled opposition cries that actual opposition is taking some Ws. Keep them crying. Or just hang them.

"Many of us believe, as I do, that if you’re a socialist, you’re not a Democrat.”

Why thank you, no I am not.

Ideally? Yes! This needed to happen when the Tea Party took over the Republicans, it's long overdue!

Let's hope they don't get a say.

This what you get got not listening. Cry some more. I look forward to the downfall. Socialists will rise because the DNC fell deep into greed.

“Obviously, the socialists had a big win last night. The question is, are we going to let them take over the party? Or are we going to stand up and fight back?” said Rep. Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey, a moderate Democrat who has criticized Mamdani’s politics and how he’s addressed allies of Israel. “Many of us believe, as I do, that if you’re a socialist, you’re not a Democrat.”

Get fucked Josh, also...

A democrat (lowercase "d") is broadly defined as a person who advocates for democracy and believes in the principles of political or social equality.

The name of your party, would disagree with your assessment. Also, the fact that your party used to represent the Jim Crow south and opposed civil liberties for non-whites, while, thankfully, it is now the one championing (at least comparatively against the Republicans) racial civil liberties and equality, means that your party has changed before and changed for the better. It changed to more closely align to the definition of the word. It can and will continue to change becuase, famously, change is the only thing that is permanent. And hopefully it changes to align even closer still to that definition. If you think you are representing equality while championing capitalism, corporatocracy, military dominance, and supporting apartheid and genocide states, well you need to either get a reality check or lose your job. And if your party is full of asshats like you, it might need an overhaul.

Maybe all Dem centrists can finally move to the Republican Party where they belong

“If you ask me, it was not a good night for New York,” Rep. Greg Meeks, a powerful New York Democrat who is close with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, told CNN..

... Meeks added: “Instead of us making sure we put all of our resources to fight Republicans and to fight Donald Trump, we’re using it to fight each other. It just doesn’t make common sense to me.”

So close to a revelation...

Rather than meeting voters where they are, leadership dems plot to suppress would-be future leaders. Same playbook they used on Bernie in 2020.

Keep going. This is the only way you're going to get any change short of all-out civil war.

Not your choice. Sucks to suck

Lmao no you stupid idiots, you killed the party through years of hard work.

What's crazy is the Democrats in power could have protected their seats with just a modicum of spine when it comes to trump. Something just slightly more than a strongly worded letter would have kept many casual "I-don't-follow-politics" voters blinded. But they are so incompetent that they couldn't even do that. And now they are surprised when they get challenged on it?????

If there was ever any doubt that the DNC was bought and paid for this ought to remedy that, when faced with a popular platform they fear how their opposition’s adherents

If that's what the people want, yes.

If you want to win the next election, I'd advise you to seriously consider it.

They'd better

AIPAC and fascist Israeli interests are not welcome. Bye Felicia

No, they won’t let us.

Step out of the way.

"Top Democrats" looking more like "Bottom Democrats" every day now. 🤣
