Democratic Party - Clueless & Feckless - is the D party done?

Attacking Raskin, a new low.

Pathetic defense. You put people on a pedestal as unattackable due to their name, rather than what they are actually saying and doing on crucial subjects, such as the failures of Chucky. Sounds more like a cult than a thinking group of people.

This is the biggest problem in the Dem party right now, and you just proved it perfectly.

Name recognition means absolutely nothing when democracy and decency are crumbling in front of our eyes and the Dems are too feckless to do the right things because they don't want to rock the boat when the leadership is not just a short-term failure, but a long-term failure, and all partly because they don't want to attack someone due to name recognition and who they are.

Appreciate the perfect response.

oh no.

Fuck any Dems who refuse to rock the boat and continue to mostly fail us at this most crucial time in history.

You can criticize someone for their absolutely horrific position on a very important subject, it doesn't mean you don't recognize some of their accomplishments, but nobody should get a pass because of their name and past accomplishments - that is a cult-like way of thinking, not a way for a political party to improve, when it is very clearly failing the moment.

Hopefully the party does a good job of kicking out the Adams faction who wants to just submit to Trump.

This is encouraging if true..

Just look at that.. she still stands by Trump and MAGA and doubles/ triples down.

Kinda crazy supporting Trump when you're trans. But no more crazy than the people I've seen being fired by his admin or seeing their own wife deported only to re-affirm that he's their guy without batting an eye lash. I could just see this person three years from now. "So the president I voted for is having my head inserted into a guillotine to fast track my path to heaven and people still think I'm crazy".

I agree, Adams definitely needs to go. OTOH, I am not so sure it is that "encouraging" that the best they can come up with is a career politician who left his last position under, shall we say less than ideal circumstances. Where is the new blood the party so desperately needs?

There is nothing encouraging about that scheister Cuomo being that far ahead. What is encouraging is who is in second, and there is enough time to get him in.

Chucky is probably sending Hegseth and Waltz a fucking gift basket of Scotch - thanks for giving my feckless party even more cover for being terrible and my idiocy! Love the distraction Petey!

Could this guy be the Dem’s best shot at the White House in 2028?

Martin O’Malley is already courting Florida seniors fed up with Trump, touting his experience as a former Social Security chief—oh you base building right now?

Also a former Mayor, former Governor—so he has something to say about states’ rights and why unitary executive theory is an abomination.

The former Social Security Administration commissioner has been urging Florida seniors to call their lawmakers — as some demand more drastic action.

He would be 65 by the time the campaign hits full swing—no spring chicken but no signs of dementia either.

The Trump administration is just handing over gift after gift of just terrible decisions and fuck-ups. Elon Musk fucking around with entitlements, is approval rating is so abysmal and he's completely tied into Trump, the signal chat embarrassment, just non-stop gifts to an opposition party. We could really be making headway against this administration if there was a fucking competent cohesive opposition party. I mean Elon calling social security a Ponzi scheme and fucking Medicare shitting on that too with fraud and just he's crossing boundaries that could completely empower a disciplined opposition party. These are fucking gifts.

I mean they're going at it so stupidly fast and so just stupidly in general they have so many openings to get embarrassed by an organized disciplined opposition party.

There was some good questioning in the Senate by a few Democratic senators that was impressive. Mayor Pete says some good stuff.

But it's just too haphazard and not organized and where the fuck is the leadership.

What a shame. What a goddamn shame this is.

Good message, only impossible to implement with either a divided Congress or everything filibustered. Hell, even several Dems wouldn't have voted for his agenda.

Bernie would have been cool for about 6 months then everybody would get upset about nothing being delivered and would have triggered the same sort of backlash we're in now.

It's like the Butterfly Effect movie where no matter what you change on the timeline, it still ends up sucking.

I agree it would take an electorate more focused on critical thinking instead of tribalism and chants to appeal to feelings

AOC for president. She needs to lead the way to clean the corrupt corporate and consultant class right the hell out of the party

Two weeks since Chuck Schumer betrayed his country and party and led a band of Dem Senators to betray America and collaborate with the fascists.

Absolutely no sign of the Dems finding a real leader. Now that is just sad.

Maybe MTG was right about the Uniparty that serves the filthy rich and only the filthy rich.

They just don't have it in them. This is not like Chucky's first major failure - the Dem party leadership has failed at messaging for years, and failed by letting Biden anoint himself king and run against Trump 2.0

They just don't have it in them do these Democrats. The leadership proves it over and over and over and over again.

Ken Klippenstein (@kenklippenstein.bsky.social)

Asked about calls for Chuck Schumer to step aside, Hakeem Jeffries strikes a conciliatory tone, saying: "Leader Schumer and I, of course, disagreed on the approach as it related to the government spending showdown, but we agree on the overwhelming majority of things moving forward."
