Once and for all ...

... 'Democrat' is a brand, just like 'Republican'.

It exists to create the illusion of choice amongst the bare minimum majority of voters to perpetuate the illusion of democracy in the United States.

In a time of economic crisis (the 3rd one in 20 years)

In a time of global pandemics

In a time where climate change and global warming continue unabated

In a time where systemic racism, brutality, and death are all that's offered, especially if you're not white and even more if you're not actually American

1. In such times, people should be reminded that these brands don't work for you. 
2. They will do nothing for you, and that's by design.

Bush is following in the footsteps of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who entered Congress with great fanfare, also after defeating an incumbent in a primary. After being beaten down by Biden and the leadership she proclaimed that he “exceeded expectations that progressives had.” Pramila Jayapal  joined in the capitulation by pronouncing that she gives Biden an A grade. No minimum wage hike, no public option, no prescription drug cost reduction and nothing else that these members said they wanted is taking place. In fact Ocasio-Cortez demurred from forcing a vote on Medicare for all in favor of using leverage to push for a minimum wage increase. Biden dismissed her fake strategy with a cynical ploy about a parliamentarian and she is left with egg on her face.

There can be no more excuses made for these people. Regardless of what they may want, they steadfastly refuse to fight for what they know to be right. None of them are revolutionaries, which is what they would have to be in order to fight a corrupt system. Biden is in no mood for compromise and he doesn’t have to when no one will fight back. The leadership do what their donors want and by definition that means the people don’t get what they want and need.
