Well the Democratic Party could start by not giving a middle finger and gas ligthing their base.

Excellent point. Does CNNDNC even kk ow what the base is? How would you define today’s dem base? @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow
@jackjjackson The DNC establishment still thinks it's the 90s.

Right. They are stuck in Clinton time and Biden is even older and out of touch. Who is today’s base? We will do that for republicans too if you want to. @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow
@jackjjackson On the issues based on every poll the Democratic base are essentially the kind of people who want the same things as Bernie Sanders. The difference is MSNBC has Biden supporters convinced he is the one to get those things for them even though his decades long record and his own words say differently.

I think CNN is pitching the same thing. I wonder why? On the other side Fox switched to Trump only after he became the nominee. Fox was against him until the bitter end. @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow
@jackjjackson Because both networks are owned by the same oligarchs that own both parties.

Do you think Trump who at least when he began as a candidate was despised and derided by the establishment/oligarchs has now let himself fall under their control? If so why would CNN still be constantly harassing and trying to get rid of him? @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow
@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Maybe Sanders isn’t the right person to be pushing that program right now. He doesn’t seem capable of motivating those young voters were always hearing about.
