The Democcratic Party needs to be REVOLUTIONARY, not reactionary. That is how we win. PERIOD.

Idiots voted for Trump because he was the REVOLUTIONARY, the REBEL.
Rebel without a clue, but they didn't care.

I keep posting this, and it's obvious that the DNC is TIRED OF WINNING.
Ashamed of it, in fact.

DNC is tired of winning.

On many issues, centrism CEMENTS the idea that the Democratic party is "no different"

Shit like this HAS TO STOP!

Signed,

DIFFERENT wins.
Revolutionary wins.

"Thank you for your attention to centrism"
