In reply to the discussion: 'Sealed their fate': New memo shows Dems giddy over looming elections [View all]Miguelito Loveless
(5,312 posts)66. As much as I would love to believe that was the case

The sad reality is that 34% of the electorate voted for fascism. 33% voted against, and 33% couldn't be bothered to vote at all.

        I think DNC only listens to a select few and  expect all Democratic voters to go along.

        Shoulda defeated it.  It was weak not to.  We need a victory , not a "on the right side".
