On pandering for voters

2020-11-06 17:18:56.196267+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

RT Essential Employee @amyep9

The Democratic Party has refused to adopt progressive policies that are wildly popular with voters, like marijuana legalization (67% of Americans support), Medicare for All (69%), raising minimum wage to $15 (63%, and 81% of registered Dems). But sure, tacking right sounds great.

RT Katie Halper @kthalps

Lincoln project utterly failed - a higher percentage Republicans voted Trump in 2020 than 2016.

Meanwhile, the DSA @DemSocialists has won 26 out of 30 races this year.

Who are the pragmatists who know how to win, again?
