They held out until the election was over. They had the voters behind them on this and naturally betrayed them immediately as soon as they got what they wanted.
What the democrats just did.

Did you even read your own source? <5% of registered dems blamed the dems, and ~21% of registered independents.

You just defend the worst actions of democrats no matter what they do.

They fucking caved. And they are now fucking traitors. And there is only one option for a traitor fuck.

The 8 who caved: Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania Sen. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia Sen. Angus King of Maine Sen. Jacky Rosen of Nevada Sen. Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire

Not familiar with the last two, but all the rest are amongst the most frequent collaborators with the fascists, usually COMPLETELY contrary to the wishes and needs of their constituencies.
They must all be primaried as soon as possible!

Please tell me they at least have concepts of a plan

They do. Get rid of the ACA and make you pay for insurance directly with funds they will supposedly give to you based on…TBD.
And yes, it’s true.

Perfect visual. They dug a hole, crawled in, and put up a stock photo to pretend it was a plan. Promises? Accountability? Nope, just echoing talking points off a rinse repeat script.
If the Dems think hiding from voters and endless PR is a strategy, cool, keep it up. Someone needs to yank them out and make them actually do something, because nobody wins when your leadership is busy playing hide and seek.

DEMS dont really have a campaign strategy that is not aoc, bernie, other than riding the coattails of the gop when they do something bad to ruin the economy.

Nah, there’s a light at the end if that “cave”, but not the real one.

You mean the oncoming train about to run over everyone who’s not a rich white Christian fascist man?
Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 hour ago
But they got a “promise” on a vote later.
I mean can you blame them? They dug their heels in and said we’re are only going to compromise if they give into our health care demands.
The Republicans said no to this so the shutdown began. They were about to find a compromise, but suddenly the Republicans said no again (Trumpy wants to play replace Romney Care again)
This is when you have to cave, when you don’t get what you want and nothing was resolved. After all, after 10+ years with nothing to replace it the Republicans have got to be allowed some more time.
