26. This. So worried about what drives progressives these days. Ruining the Democrats chances

All about saying both parties are beholden to the billionaires, that the Democrats aren't progressive enough for them. Blaming Democrats like Kamala Harris because voters voted for Trump.
And the biggest issue these days being Gaza, and Zionism being the most horrible slur.
Imagine, losing to Trump and the Republicans of this day.
