    The way Kamala Harris is running her campaign (towards the right), I would venture to say they’re taking over the Democratic party. Kamala was really emphasizing her endorsement from the war criminal, Dick Cheney 🤮

      Conservatives took over the Democratic party over 30 years ago. Progressives have just recently started inching themselves back into relevance.

        The Democratic Party was much more conservative 30 years ago than today.

          I don’t know why people forget this. Bill Clinton was a straight-up conservative. Do people not remember that?

          Aren’t you just restating my comment? Yes, progressives regaining relevancy results in a Democratic party that is left of one taken over by conservatives.
