Bill Clinton’s last-minute endorsement of Andrew Cuomo in New York City’s mayoral race is all too fitting: both men represent the corporate Democratic establishment, opposed by socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani, that has abandoned the working class.

    It’s simple, the Democratic Party does not support candidates that don’t adhere to the Democratic Party platform. They don’t support independents. They don’t support “democratic socialists.”

    It’s people still expecting them to change their platform after all this time that is surprising.

    George Washington said parties would ruin the any chance at democracy the union had and he was right.

      True, but here we are. Cuomo conceded already, the race wasn’t even close

      The Democrats stand for nothing. They’re weak. The people are angry.

      We can tea party them. The plan is working

        The tea party was funded by the Koch brothers, we don’t have those on the left.

        We shouldn’t need it though. We have real numbers, but we probably should have a version of Leonard Leo getting non-insane judges into power.
