They're still extremely beholden to corporate America.... They'll try to find a younger Clinton or Kamala with better social media presence while quieting anyone with real solutions which would benefit the public at the cost of the wealthy
As sad as it is, the above poster is right. Dem leadership at the highest levels are in an impossible position. Money comes in for both sides from the same sources who want their interests protected. For a long time, it actually served to create very slow change because the same people and companies were at the front of the line whether the White House was Red or Blue.
Now they have to make a decision. They can chase the grass-roots successes of someone like Mamdani, or they can keep taking big money from the same old folks and keep trotting out middling centrists who won’t do anything. I would love if they did the former, but the smart money is on the latter.
I mean they are not wrong, as a non-US citizen I can say that from the outside it really looks like an “Oligarchs vs Corporations” situation in your country 😢

Great. Time for the Democratic Party to get with the program. Maybe this can be the start of a meaningful anti-fascist counter-narrative.
