      Shining a light on reality doesn’t make us divided, denying reality does. We can acknowledge our problems and still be a team, a more honest one.

        I know but a lot of this both sides rhetoric just reduces voter turnout out and the republicans win.

      The left is not divided, democrats that think they are part of the left are divided.

      Democrats are republicans

    It’s not even private, they’re friends openly. Like Trump and the Clintons. He was a Democrat, so was musk, now we see they’re both been fascists the entire time.

    If gruesome Newsom is the Democrat’s presidential candidate like they keep working him towards, I’m going to sit out on that one. Dude is no different from Republicans. I’ll still vote and strive for left leaning local candidates and in congress especially, but I aint getting burnt by this shit again.

                Fetterman still votes with Democrats about 75-80% of the time. He is not ideal, but he is far better than any Republican.

                Elected representatives are intended to vote the way their constituents want them to. Foreign military intervention and border control are very popular in Pennsylvania and those are the two major categories where Fetterman diverges from the Democrats.

                On top of all that, the parties don’t ever kick people out for how they vote. They only kick people out for misconduct.

                  He keeps allowing the Republican party to wage their illegal war, and consistently votes against key democratic legislation. Additionally, how does that statistic fare when looking only at the last 2 years?
