The Democratic Party has lost its way. They were so busy trying to cater to everyone that they forgot to be the party for their own supporters. I’ve read multiple times that the Democrats swung too far left. Since when? What if staying centrist isn’t the answer? What if Dems swung further left?
The Democratic Party is sifting through the rubble of its sweeping election loss and trying to work out what went wrong.

Completely & totally unrelated- did you know that cystic acne runs in cycles so it’s not always present at an appt (+ it’s annoying AF)
