Your post from Dec. 18, 2024:
If Pelosi is so smart how come Democrats lost the House in the last two elections?

Same date:
Current leadership has lost the House twice in a row. In addition to now losing the Senate and White House. Wanna keep losing? Keep doing what has failed in the past.

Same date:
Current leadership was in charge of winning elections and they failed. Pelosi is part of leadership so she has a share in the responsibility for that failure. Its the 2020s, not the 1990s anymore more. Trying to move backwards instead of forward is a recipe for failure. New ideas and new people are needed.

People need to stop listening to Pelosi She's like many older people she's still living in a time 20-30 years ago when things were the way she was most comfortable.

YOU recommended that post.
Your post from March 31, 2025:
I don't think it's just Schumer. While there are great progressive democrats in Congress like Elizabeth Warren, AOC, Jasmine Crockett, etc, theyve been undermined by moderates like Joe Manchin, Kristen Scinema, Abigail Spanberger and others.

I could go on, but you probably get the point.
Nancy Pelosi is now retired, but she wasn't when you wrote your posts. She is revered by many here. And she, like Schumer and Spanberger, is a Democrat. Perhaps you weren't aware? And you don't sound very supportive of them at all.
Democrats exist on a spectrum. You don't appear to be on board with all of them, despite your assertion. Remember, your post history on the DU is easily examined.
Jon Stewart and Bill Maher, despite their criticism of some Democratic stances, are on the record as voting for Democrats. That's good enough for me.
Have a nice day!
