Sure, and I have no interest in defending any positions of his that I oppose. But as you say this autumn it isn’t about what I want in a politician (and you’d be hard pressed to ever find someone you agree with on every policy) it’s about Trump or Biden. Democrats or Republicans in Congress. It’s a shitty choice, but solving that is about voting for replacements in primaries and if none exist then actually putting your name in or pushing someone you think is suited into that track. It’s about actually getting involved in democracy and not just leave it to the rich and powerful. Come election day the choice is A or B. If you want C then sorry bud but you missed the window to get C on the ballot or C isn’t nearly as popular as you think.
So DNC canceling a primary really worked on some people?
What they’ve been telling progressives for over a decade is the only time they can speak got yanked away, and you just shrug and carry on?
I honestly didn’t think the Dem party so was really going to follow republicans down this road, but apparently lots of voters are fine with it
I’d argue a presidential primary is also well to late. And for a primary to matter you need candidates that actually want to challenge the presumptive choice in the incumbent president. If no alternatives exist there’s no point in vasting money on a primary.
We’re just a few cycles removed from the DNC openly blackballed companies for working with House challengers…
And people really act like they don’t understand why people weren’t lining up to flush their careers down the toilet.
Hell, even in 2020 all but Bernie dropped out by like the second primary.
You’ve never heard the term “backroom politics” before?
