(71,416 posts)that the GOP have reneged on all promises including SNAP and added a threat to abortion? We increased our voters in the last election by working hard and Earning voters trust. Our party is not popular you know in polls.
Why would new voters
trust us to fight for them? Schumer and his eight have caused irreversible damage and lost the ACA.We got nothing. I dont know if we ever get healthcare back. It was fucking hard the first time.
Thus I say primaries for those who betrayed us and yes I do know these folks were chosen because they had less to lose. But I have a long memory and zero tolerance for this sort of thing. We were played. And there is no excuse worthy of consideration. I will always vote Democratic but time for a change.
I heard around that this was the plan
to sacrifice the ACA for better midterm results. I hope that is not true.The cynicism of that view and the stupidity in thinking it would work is mind blowing. In any case, we need new leaders.
