Seething liberals vow revolution in Democratic Party
By Jonathan Easley - 11/12/16 06:00 AM EST

The Republican civil war was supposed start this week.

Instead, a ferocious struggle has erupted on the left over the smoldering remains of the Democratic Party.

Liberals are seething over the election and talking about launching a Tea Party-style revolt. They say it’s the only way to keep Washington Democrats connected to the grassroots and to avoid a repeat of the 2016 electoral disaster, which blindsided party elites.

Progressives believe the Democratic establishment is responsible for inflicting Donald Trump upon the nation, blaming a staid corporate wing of the party for nominating Hillary Clinton and ignoring the Working Class voters that propelled Trump to victory.

I want to help the Democratic Party

So I am going to give them advice. Go left. You weren't radical enough on things like the environment, health care, the economy, taxes, the culture.....

Let Hugo Chavez be your role model. And you didn't call middle America stupid enough.

 If they follow my advice they should win landslides from here on out

And they're only going to go more left, more crazy, more Bernie. Worst of all is they're reacting in typical knee jerk fashion to losing, a recipe for disaster. Worst kind of decision to make is one where you're pushed.

Only thing I might add as advice,  hoard toilet paper.
