Democrats are making a show of their willingness to cooperate with the incoming Trump administration. That’s not their job.

    democrats are too stupid to realize that cooperation stopped by the other side many years ago. they are under the delusion that their capitulation will gain them anything. the new normal shows, they are just being dragged to the right.

    democrats are the new conservatives. conservatives are now fascists. our only hope are the progressives who have been shoved in a corner and told to STFU.

      Sadly true… everything has been “meet in the middle” but when one side keeps sliding right the middle does too… there isn’t a left left

        As a European, it never fails to amaze me what Americans consider “left”. Y’all had your compass shifted to the far right so much you even call something left that would pass as conservative in Europe.

      Progressives/leftists aren’t winning as many elections as conservatives and moderate democrats. Because so many are opposed to bipartisanship.
