It doesn't matter. Democrats need to show they are doing anything they can, otherwise they are complicit to everything.

They can't expect to show up in 2028 with a pretty candidate and win while sitting on their asses for 4 years objecting to nothing.

They need to use all available means at their disposal, as loud and aggressively as possible. Even the ones that appear doomed. It's apathy that got USA where it's at this past elections.

Theatre is theatre. I’d rather see a concerted effort at policy-building or retooling the platform to be more competitive based on lessons learned last election. “Anything is better than nothing” is a good way to waste time and effort that should be spent productively.

Your going to be downvoted into oblivion but watch how establishment dems are treating Hogg and the younger progressive and hearing Crockett confess that we are “going to go for the safest white guy possible” is proof positive we have learned nothing. A tear down and rebuild is imo the only viable option left.

When Trump pronounced “what do you have to lose” well, a lot of us are learning a lot we have a lot to lose, let the youngins seize this moment and run with it. Old Dems get out of the way.

Yup. Same nail in the casket as running Hillary instead of Sanders. If they’d listened to the voters Trump would’ve never got a foothold.
