When our progressive movement, either DSA has a full split as well as having more availability (same for PSL) then there is no longer a practical utility for the democratic party. Until then its them or crusader republicans doing double time.
You are misunderstanding blue no matter who as being pro dem rather than a last resort. And it continues to be one because MLs just want a total surrender of the electoral front.
My question was not "What could happen that would make you stop supporting them", it was "What could they (as in the party itself) do that would make you stop supporting them".
I actually don't. If you're a leftist, your electoral front should definitely not be represented by the Democratic Party. And it doesn't matter that it's a "last resort", it has never worked and it will continue to fail.
Like I said. not all of us have the privileged of an alternative and we have to make due with what is around us to live to fight another day.
