    Good, every one of them should be primaried; the party leadership shit the bed and continued to shit the bed time and time again. New blood or a new party.

    This would have been helpful 10 years ago. Now, every politician will require Trump’s approval to run.

        Every politician plays to win. I’m not sure you’re understanding my point: there is no longer a democracy.

          Every politician plays to win.

          Why does this only apply when the democratic party is bringing everything to bear against progressives in primaries?

          Y’all weren’t playing to win in 2024.
