The Democratic party’s favorability rating has hit a record low, according to a CNN survey released Sunday.

The survey, conducted March 6-9, shows 54 percent of U.S. adults say they have an unfavorable opinion of the Democratic party, while 29 percent say they have a favorable opinion and 16 percent say they have no opinion.

((Proof that capitulating to MAGAites is not doing the democrat party any favors.))

      “With polling numbers like this among our base, we’re going to need to triple our efforts to get votes from Republicans. It’s the only option.”

        Clearly the problem is that Dick Cheney wasn’t far enough right. Maybe if someone started a podcast and invited Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon - wait, shit - uhh I guess they weren’t far enough right either. Who’s next, Richard Spencer and David Duke?

      I know you’re joking but that’s almost certainly where they are gonna go with this information.

    Whats fun about this is that AOC’s individual popularity… is not trash.

    Same with Crocket. Al Green. others.

    The Democrats are clearly not going to save us. We’re gonna have to save ourselves.

        When the Republicans had this problem, they developed the Tea Party.

        We need a Guillotine Party to perform the same role.

        Mutual aid. Community gardens. Community mesh-networks that don’t connect to corporate internet.

        In other words, building parallel systems to support one another. Gotta get mobilized on a local level and build systems outside of capitalism for support leading up to (hopefully) a General Strike.

        The violence is coming, that’s almost assured. We don’t have to invite it before we have a plan and ways to take care of one another.

        The Black Panthers and the community work they did need to be used as a roadmap. There will be infiltrators and agent provocateurs trying to dismantle it from the inside. We need to be smart like Afeni Shakur.

          The Black Panthers got a lot of headlines and got wiped out without the Establishment breaking a sweat.

          You’re completely dependent on the electrical grid, the internet, the roads, and the rest of the infrastructure that Trump is going to control.

          And, as you pointed out, the entire Movement was riddled with spies. Think Blackwater is really going to let you have your little garden?

    We need a shake up that includes multi parties and ranked choice voting system. This two party system isn’t working anymore. Now would also be a good time to start a new party with some of these Dems that actually care

    Money buys elections - period. Money buys the news. Money buys influence. Money tells a significant portion of the population what to think. Money keeps people ignorant. Money makes people believe lies.

    It would be nice if Dems had someone who could identify both a cohesive vision AND a path/plan for execution. You know. Actually governing.
