We’re all exhausted, but in the 24 hours since the election was called, corporate interests and their allies have already started their war on progressives. There is no rest for the weary.
These people ran a Clinton, got 8 years of Republican-lite centrism, and his VP lost to a H.W.'s cokehead failson. They reacted to this by running another Clinton a decade later. There is no way for Dems to lose enough for them to "learn the lesson" that they need to stop being corporatist goons. Its just who they are. Biden could have swept with his projected "blue wave" and they'd still be purging progressives now that the Big Cheeto is gone and the base can go back to ignoring everything else.
