    In your estimation, has the Democrat Party become the party of LOSERS, WHINERS, & those who are IRRESPONSIBLE?  Why?  Why not?

      No, the Republicans are, as demonstrated last November where the Dems enjoyed the best mid term outcome sinc 1974. That is enough for me. The conservatives and Republicans will be put on the defensive, having to resort to dirty tricks to maintain power contrary to the popular mandate.

      I am opposed to Republicans in virtually all their platform and methods. So, it has reached the point that ANY Democrat is better than trusting ANY
      Republican. It is now one side or the other, no such thing as moderation when dealing with the Right.

      Yes, to some extent. But they are looking more like the party of vengeance these days. They can't get over losing the 2016 election to Trump. And the Republicans in power are taking too long to learn this.

      Girl wonder(being sarcastic here).  Onusonus, the new Democratic Party no longer represent my values.  While I may be Liberal, I am definitely not a Leftist Socialist.

    Although I have little love or respect for the current Democratic leadership and I do get a chuckle when I hear Ms. Cortez in the moments it is revealed she really knows less than nothing about governance, I see it as simply the vehicle to provide opposition to the policies espoused by the Republican platform.

    The current leadership is composed of whiners and losers. They are behind the eight ball in regards to what their constituency demands. They are entrenched in a bid to retain some semblance of power and I see their leadership as ineffectual. They are afraid of the future of America and are so out of touch with the needs of the common man that they will promise and demand anything.

    Democratic strongholds display large portions of the population who have become more disenfranchised than the average American. They have bred a belief in the 'victim' mentality, they have fostered in a new generation with an 'entitlement' philosophy. Hand outs are deemed more desirable than  hand ups.

    I watched a segment on you tube the other day where Pramila Jayapa went to Tijuana to view and speak her mind on the caravan crisis. It then showed footage of homeless camps in her own state. To me, the Democratic leadership is more interested in creating more votes for the Democratic party than taking care of their own citizens. It is more interested in obtaining power than obtaining positive change.
