minus-squareabracaDavid@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up13arrow-down3·3 days agoAbsolutely this. How many times are we gonna be Charlie Brown trying to kick the football before Lucy pulls the ball away? This party isn’t here for us. They do not represent our best interests. They simply care about the ruling class/ultra wealthy. They have purposely not followed through on their campaign promises so many times. Time to dump them. DNC isn’t getting my vote anymore. Time for a new party.
minus-squareDarkFuture@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down5·3 days agoThat’s all well and good, if you want to lose elections for the foreseeable future.
