The entrenched establishment that still controls the DNC isn't interested in winning elections if it means offending AIPAC or their mega rich and corporate donors. They can't offer any meaningful change for the working class without risking their own paychecks, so they don't have any moves except "not Trump."
This is why primaries exist if I'm not mistaken.
Excellent point. If the DNC was captured by AIPAC, then they wouldn't have primaries, and would instead figure out some way to nominate a pro-Israel candidate undemocratically.
Are Americans going to pop a blood vessel in their eye if they don't use abrivations for everything?
The problem is that most people know these organizations by their abbreviations rather than the whole title
Holy shit AIPAC stands for that? No wonder about the last few years then
(yeah I'm not american, I also only knew these by their abbreviations)
They've been lobbying hard for like 30+ years afaik
They've successfully overthrown the government with bribes and blackmail, the upcoming military integration seals it.
Wait ‘til you learn that GOP stands for Republican.
Grand Old Pedophile Party
aka: Greed Over People party
Or, in reality, the progressive voters don't show up during Democratic primaries and the DNC responds to those who do.
Progressives showed up to the primary for New York mayor and the DNC responded with Islamophobia, an anti-socialist manifesto, and threats of splitting the party.
Among others: Over 30 socialists have won primaries this year, as of a month ago.
With hopefully a few more to go:
Hopefully a lot more to go. We even got a progressive who won the Democratic primary for Senate in Kentucky, Charles Booker. Though he hasn't called himself a socialist, he's running on the same social democratic platform as the DSA-aligned socialists have been.
We showed up for Bernie in droves that the DNC got so scared they conspired AGAINST him to prevent any chance of him being the nominee. I'm done with neo-liberals, they're as much contemptible as reactionaries, more so because they pretend to be on our side.
