During negotiations with the DNC and the Harris campaign, we were repeatedly told by interlocutors that Harris couldn’t meet any of our basic requests (a policy shift from Biden, a Palestinian speaker at the DNC, a statement distinguishing herself from Trump on Israel, or even a meeting with Michigan families who lost loved ones to Israeli bombs) because of AIPAC-aligned politicians like Fetterman, who might take to TV, rile up suburban white and Jewish voters, and fracture the party’s coalition in a swing state.
That political calculus alienated a key voting bloc, although likely not large enough to have shifted the ultimate election outcomes, that should be part of a durable Democratic majority. But few will ever be held accountable for that choice.
A Fetterman staffer condemning Uncommitted for not advocating for Palestinians ‘the right way’ is like an arsonist scolding the fire department for using the wrong hose.
Trump won but you’re still arguing about Harris. Weird as fuck. Do you have anything relevant to say? Picking on the democrats is so last election.
Then have the Democrats shut up about voting Democrat whenever someone posts about Palestine. Democrats do not get to start a blame war and then pretend to be the victim
The democrats lost, the war is over, im australian but you americans had better get it together fast because your opposition is killing you. Stop arguing about the past and fight for the future. Seriously. The best i can hope for right now is that the USA goes so badly wrong that even your average bogan Aussie votes left. Kamala is such old news, focusing on her is a distraction that seems designed to let the broligarchy slide.

Before election:
Fuck Kamala
After election:
Fuck Kamala
You got anything to say about what’s actually happening?
Capitalism.
But, that is what is happening. The DNC seems to be learning the wrong lessons from their loss. I have no reason to believe they will do better in the future until they realize they are out of touch and need to stop blaming the voters.
Why are you looking to the dnc? You never believed in them anyway?? Its very confusibg that you go after the dnc. Maybe try something new?
It’s really not. They’re one of the two parties in the two party system that our government is rigged to prop up.
Amazing it’s like you are literally unable to read my comment.
If the DNC is planning to make the same mistakes, this will continue to be relevant. Given that Minority Leader Jefferies went to a Silicone Valley donor event last week and told attendees they would take the House in 2026 by, “reaching toward the center,” this kind of shit will be relevant for years to come.
“Damn, you’re all still talking about that Hitler guy? That was decades ago!”
The Democrats in Washington failed us, and they won’t admit it or retire. So of course we are going to target them… Otherwise, they’ll try the same thing in 2 years and get the same result.
I’m afraid you don’t see any of the depth in politics. Different people have different goals, and we actually need to openly discuss their goals if we’re going to work together in the future.
I bet during the election you said “it’s to late to change anything, just vote democrat”
This is the magical time when we get to change things supposedly, so we will be having these discussions with or without you.
