The biggest enemy of Progressives is not the Republican Party. Their biggest enemy is the Democratic Party. The Democrats would rather lose to a Republican than win with a progressive. The DNC has spent more money attacking progressive candidates than against other republican candidates. The DNC invited 4 Republicans to the DNC and they attacked progressive policies with ample speaking time than just minute speeches from progressive candidates. This playbook has been repeated already in 2016 and the Democrats have learned nothing or they are being bought to do nothing. Democrats have spent more time and energy attacking Trump from the Right while offering no real solutions to the problems we face, unemployment, shipping of jobs overseas, millions of Americans uninsured, crumbling and outdated infrastructure, over half the country living paycheck to paycheck, and now millions facing potential eviction from their homes. A vote for any Democrat is a vote for Nancy Pelosi, just look at AOC back then-- to now, sad. The Democratic Party is not the rebellion against the Republican Party when the Dems have passed the Republicans entire agenda all along! We need a viable 3rd party now!
