I think they're grooming AOC for all the disappointment as evidenced by DNC's leadership blocking her nomination for the oversight committee. Lol

If they keep it up they just won't have a party. Democrats don't do party line loyalty like the Republicans.

they can do whatever they want since americans are conditioned to believe that politics are only left and right, so that leads them to believe that there must be democrats as the de facto option; it doesn't matter that both the democrats and republics are just different shades of red.

I would say the recent election is evidence that's not true. Harris said nothing would change and people who usually vote stayed home.
