Democrats vow to shut down Senate over Iran conflict - Lemmy.World

This follows after four democrats [https://time.com/7382846/democrats-who-voted-against-war-powers-resolution-iran-conflict-trump/] voted against the War Powers resolution. Pathetic, incompetent leadership.

does this include fetterman. can we stop pretending he is a democrat. honestly this is a problem with our parties. they don’t want to kick anyone out lest they officially be listed on the other side.

It’s more of a problem with the two party system. Fetterman still sides with dems on some issues, so it’s rational to keep him from drifting farther away.

Thats exactly what im talking about. Thats exactly why they don’t cut him loose and it poisons the party. I mean I don’t want all the dems to be toeing the party line like rebublicans but there should be a point where you say this person is really to far over.

So is there a plan to preselect a normal person next time?

anyone who actually gets involved in primaries and elections knows there is no preselection. Massive monitary support and dirty pool, yeah.
