The Democratic Party in Trump's Fascist 2nd Term. Commentary, Ideas & Strategy (+ non Woketicism)

Jeffries ain't saying or implying what you've said though. All it is him being diplomatic (Which is being kind) about Adams.

 

The fact Democrats refuse to hold leadership accountable for betraying the people and party is insane. There is nothing good to say about Eric at this point and he should be thrown into the dustbin of history as an example of what not to be or do.

If he wanted to be a good leader he could've said something along the lines of hey I had high hopes for you but you messed up but time and got blackmailed by the President and turned Republican. The people have spoken and I look forward to working with the new mayor to improve the lives of New Yorkers.

Clean it up, done.

 

For someone be like Hillary, sure. I have strong disagreements with her but objectively she's been trying to make Dems better more often than not.

Adams literally betrayed everything and became a shill for the regime. He isn't worthy of any grace.

 

What's wrong with saying just that? What pushback would Jeffries get from the public? Why is it so taboo to have a spine and call out bad behavior?

 

I am so sick and tired of Jeffries and Schumer… no surprise the party is so unpopular with its own base. Jeffries is praising a scumbag and alledged crook like Adams but not endorsing the democratic candidate for Mayor in NY. He is such a complete moron.

 

$50 says Schumer and Jeffries throw the trans community into the dumpster to end the shutdown.

 

If so, they'll argue it is short-term pain for long-term gain. I think that's what many here were telling me back when Biden caved in and agreed not to fly the Pride flag at embassies. Thankfully, that short-term pain has really paid off, given how much better things are now!

 

The most important thing to folk like Biden is bipartisanship. Saw it during the first go round with these knuckleheads. How many times did we hear from a certain someone the need for a strong GOP? The need for negotiating and consensus building and sometimes we don't get what we want.

And here we are.

 

What would be the specific compromise in this scenario? I mean, it’s a budget bill.

 

Any facility performing gender affirming care is ineligible to receive federal dollars.

 

Are women really a “minority?”

 

I’m sorry but all this is dubious. Could Schumer and Jeffries do better? Sure but they’re in the minority nor are they likely to throw minorities under the bus.

 

He doesn't have to accept the rights framing. By doing so it's a sign of weakness.

A more neutral message that is strong would be something like: I'm going to continue to ensure that Democrats continue to make NYC the best city in the country and as party leader am always happy to welcome in new young talent. I'm happy to work with the mayor on a variety of issues. Our party doesn't embrace sexual abusers, unlike the GOP. #ReleasetheEpsteinFiles
