If I was headin up the Dems I would have a 24/7 war room with the most brilliant minds in the country developing a multi pronged opposition inclusive of fundraising, recruitment, media campaigns, local organizing, stop gap planning for lost infrastructure & networks of mutual aid. It’s BASIC shit.

I used to hope that your collection of brilliant minds was secretly happening, but I knew better. No one was acknowledging the war.
-
Since Bush Jr used the term "multi pronged", I prefer to say "multi-faceted".
That said, first we must vote out the ones who are funded by the billionaires.
And before that, we must rid ourselves of the most immediate problems; billionaires and the Trump regime.
-
They arnt dems they are corporate stooges which is why they arnt doing any of that.
-
Yes, starting over ten years ago…
-
Instead the DNC is 100% focused on raising money and cheating anyone who leans too far left.
-
100%!
-
Absolutely 💯. I'd also have a daily presser to explain to Americans what happening. Daily. Because there is some bat shit crazy shit every day.
-
And spare a though for constitutional changes to make sure you don't get TACO'd again.
I would declare war on Russia, but that entails a lot of risk - and I'm a Brit. -
They desperately need our help and yet remain lost in the woods. Nightmare for us all.
-
But who will think about the poor little wallstreet consultants?
-
I wish they would hire you! Now that I would donate to.
-
Yep.
And a team looking at every lead re: Epstein. For some unfathomable reasons, this seems like the linchpin (after dozens of disqualifications for the ethical amongst us).
-
Bernie Sanders has been doing training sessions on how to organize and take action. I have organized a town hall in my district and there are hundreds of others across the country doing the same. They are also helping people run for office. Sign up on his website for more information.
-
I'm not saying they do, I'm not saying they don't.
But if Dems said that they did, they would be arrested for sedition. That's where we are.
The Art of War tells us to make plans in secret until the exact perfect time to deploy them. And only when they are assured of success.
-
I agree. We've got to get a handle on this shit, ASAP. If it's another civil war, so be it.
-
Well, time to run for office.
-
Right?
-
24x7x365
-
I was thinking about this earlier. They should also have a heavily promoted question of the day. Pick ONE question that the press refuses to ask and challenge people to answer it. Give as many fact as possible and let folks run with it. Something thought provoking to CHEW on.
-
This assumes Dems will ever be in power again. They will. In about 75 years, after the civil war gets trump out and maybe, just maybe the world will trust the US again after a few generations.
-
They can’t even organize a phone tree
-
The problem is your first statement, who even is our party leader?
-
But instead they pay tens of millions to consultant firms to figure out why nobody likes them.
…and it turns out those firms are wrong.
-
I swear I was just thinking the same yesterday! Where the fuck is the plan?
-
I have zero interest in the Dems regaining power but you are so right about this. It seems so simple.
-
The dems have a HUGE opening to get their message out, helped by the craven rethugs. Organize!!!!
-
Define brilliant minds, because the people they’ve been listening to for the last 6 decades are now clutching pearls. They listen to consultants and pundits about the next election, not protecting this country. Think of the great legal minds that said SCOTUS would honor precedent.
-
harris campaign proved you can have the best marketing machine in the world and someone will have the “better” idea of throwing it all out and backing cheney.
-
So would I, don’t understand to flecked Dems
-
We think alike !
-
They're going to need their own security services outside of the police and other agencies before this is over...
-
Yes, but they're fascist collaborators, so that's not going to happen
-
I am with you right there!!
Here’s someone people can learn from about how to replace ignorance with less ignorance.
This talk is almost a decade old. You’d be surprised (or not) how often people still ignore this.
-
Exactly! Why aren’t Dems the well-oiled machine of destruction like the fucking Republicans? We need to play dirty now. It’s the only way.
-
DNC leadership is far too busy fundraising from mega donors to care about winning!
-
But citizens united made them beholden to JUST the wealthy. Democrats don’t GAF that children are suffering, that will not affect their income one iota.
-
Ya think? Giddy up Dems. You're not tough enough.
-
Perhaps we need to just do it. I'm over waiting for those slack asses to get it together
-
You mean, a party?
-
MS - That what they did last year. Problem was we ran a black woman.
-
Repubs do this doubt democrats do.
-
💯 Excellent idea.
-
Exactly
-
Hey @kenmartin.bsky.social this is the way!
-
Can't. Can't afford it. Using that money for the consultants that got us into this mess in the first place
-
I don't like politics or politicians anymore. Its all about them not us. Lets kick them all out and take over..
-
This would make sense, but the DNC leadership has been told to ignore such tactics or strategies as it'll piss off the big donors, foreign and domestic. I recall that back in 2016, after trumps victory, young Dems wanted similar strategies to be put in place, but leadership ignored them.
-
They want to lose. Why else would they just roll over and die?
-
I used to dismiss wild claims of the "uniparty" running this country. But it gets harder to dismiss them with each passing day.
-
Not me!
I'd "write" a book, then go on a book tour to sell it. I'd also do photo-ops at little league games. I'd make loud noises like I'm angry, but then do nothing.
I'm just tryin' to be a better person...
My name is Schumer.
-
Instead, they make deals with a handful of billionaires who fund both parties - so we are always fighting each other instead of fighting the criminal exploitation and abuse.
-
And that is why the DNC will fire anyone who suggests such a thing.
They don’t do basic shit. They figure out how to get in line behind Republicans.
-
Too many over-inflated, self important egos and hype whores.
They can’t agree on anything worthwhile
-
🤣 if only the establishment democrats didn’t like the status quo. They’re too busy trashing progressive policies cause of the big money donors. While simultaneously pretending they can’t win because of the left. 🤦🏻♀️
-
Yes!!!!
-
Are you able to run for congress ?
I’m considering running against @repgregstanton.bsky.social
-
Run for office, I will vote for you 💜
-
Yes, but, isn't fundraising more important than democracy?
-
It cost no $$ to go on every media outlet stating, The Republicans are Protecting Child RAPIST. They’re sociopathic LIARS, Corporate whores, White Nationalist Nazis. Etc etc. Using your MOUTH wisely is cheap!
-
Too worried the’ll lose their seat. I won’t be voting for any incumbent in MN.
-
This bullshit ends the moment we all come together at our state houses! They will run from government when the people come for them
-
They got the best consultants money could buy!
-
Step by Step
Recruit pro-Democracy billionaires to fund security and campaign finance for GOP members willing to oust trump
With willing GOP members elect New Speaker
Impeach & remove the Veep
Impeach & remove trump
Swear in New Speaker as POTUS#47
Fix damage, clean house
-
And every establishment Democrat would be fighting tooth and nail to get you to find common ground with the Republicans and abandon your silly crusade... 😤
-
Isn't it insane we even have to say this?!?
They need to start thinking like a criminal. They are a day late & a dollar short. It's so maddening.
-
OMG! That's NOT what they are doing?? No wonder we're in this mess. Our defensive line up has been on the bench sitting on their hands. And our offence is just bringing them towels and water and fretting about the damn gov't being taken over by a bunch of fascists, human traffickers, and lunatics!!
