If you can’t take over the feckless Democrats, then you don’t deserve to be in politics. They’re lazy, fat, and arrogant. Taking over the Democratic party is political t-ball. We will fight. We will win. We are Klingons…I mean progressives. You get the idea.
The Democratic party doesn’t choose Chuck Schumer, the senators do. And if they don’t follow the will of the voters you can make it an election issue and organize challenges.
Doomerism a convenient view to adopt because it doesn’t ask you to do anything. The wealthy donors love people who have already given up, even if they’re mad at those donors. When the rubber hits the road it’s still giving them easy power.
At least people who don’t do anything because they think the system is just going to work on its own get to be happy while subordinating themselves.
Unfortunately the Democratic Party is a private institution that is not obligated to serve the will of the voters.

Specifically, the Dem senators do. Its an intra party vote that can be called for at any time by a small number of Dem Senators.
Yes that’s technically correct but the party leadership will do everything they can to retain control for their wealthy donors

I contribute beyond shitposting. I just believe the party leadership is not inept, but rather corrupt, and we should treat them accordingly.
They can make with the shocked Pikachu in November then. Why oh why won’t the people vote for them just because they’re not trump!?
