This midterms they won major mayoral races in cities: LA, D.C. Ann Arbor and Providence. As I said before, DSA is unstoppable. Don’t forget that over 100 elected and reelected Congress members are endorsed by DSA.

Membership actually is not important. The import thing is that DSA’s idea is so popular among people under age of 35. In addition to their well known socialist ideology, their stance on Israel, helped by this Iran war, won huge support from young people (red-green alliance). This is what the right (except JD) refuses to admit even after the midterms.

        No one here or in government is communist. The DSI element is a small minority of the Dems… Domer From Hell 5:16pm · 11/13/26
