1) If true, then the wall-street democrats ought to stop their assault on the left wing of the Democratic party, particularly the newly elected ones who are trying to fix the country
Just the idea that you can come out with malicious branding such as
wall-street/
corportate democrats, then accuse everyone else of starting assaults is fucking rich.
One of the hardest tasks hammered into prospective politicians (esp. democrats) for years has been how to create messaging to convince corporate boards that their policies would benefit them even though it would cost them in areas such as taxes and higher employment/operating costs. People would fail at this more times than not. It would take years before they could do this successfully for public backing or monetary support.
That the most successful get rewarded for the hours of work it took them to do this by being labeled corrupt or corporate democrat has been the ultimate stab in the back from the very people who should have been grateful for the work.
As vicious as the "far left" has been, don't even come at ME with accusations of attacking Democrats. Look in the fucking mirror.
You guys have taken every GOP made up mocking points that they've repeated for years and ran with them.
You took the ones that originated from the Russian bot fests and did the same thing.
I don't care if I get ignored by half this board or the other way around. If you are still so much of a simpleton fucking idiot that you still run with the
corporate democrat, neo-whatthefuckever labels, get used to getting called out on it. You think you're suddenly being attacked when what's happening is Democrats are not about to stand still and let people sling shit on them anymore. Those days are over.
It isn't the politicians that most Democrats have a problem with (although Bernie does it himself). It's their rabid supporters. Even Warren's twitter feed is filled with the bots and bros commenting with "We want Bernie!" intimidation bs.
2) This, of course, isn't true at all; it has been "get along to get along" centrism, as well as the naive notion of "bipartisianship" (E.G. Obama wasting his time reaching out to a GOP that hated him) that is what has gotten us into this mess in the first place.
What's naive is thinking any politician or president is supposed to address a hostile Congress with taunts that they will get nothing. There's a reason GOP and Trump do not have the House now.
ETA: *hostile Congress and half of American voters.
