    So on one hand people here hate the Democrat leadership (with good reason). But now when this guy is speaking out against the Democrat leadership, you criticize them for internal division?

      He’s part of that leadership. He’s part of the problem. We want real change for working people, he just wants to change who’s getting the corporate bribes.

      He wants to maintain the current right-wing leadership, not to put someone in charge who’d actually do anything differently. Replacing Schumer with another corporate stooge is a guaranteed way to continue losing elections and capitulating to MAGA.

      You have to actually listen and pay attention to more than the most absolute surface level stuff. He wants people who are worse.

      The enemy of your enemy is not your friend if they’re just looking for a power grab. In fact, they could very likely be a lot worse.

        Possibly - but the people here complaining were not very articulate about it…

          The Democrats always seem to be coopting the people’s movements in order to dilute them and render them meaningless. People hate the Democrats. He’s trying to coopt that energy into making the Democrats stronger so that people will feel like they did something and nothing will change.
