“This Is a Collapse of the Democratic Party”: Ralph Nader on Roots of Trump’s Win Over Harris

“This is a collapse of the Democratic Party.” Consumer advocate, corporate critic and former presidential candidate Ralph Nader comments on the reelection of Donald Trump and the failures of the Democratic challenge against him.

Despite attempts by left-wing segments of the Democratic base to shift the party’s messaging toward populist, anti-corporate and progressive policies, says Nader, Democrats “didn’t listen.” Under Trump, continues Nader, “We’re in for huge turmoil.”

  • No one has a right to media attention just because they have a good idea. I assume if a serial killer had a good idea, you wouldn't want it on all the front pages. Maybe let them tell someone else and have that person bring it up if it's such a good idea.

    • Who said the person deserves attention? Even a right to it?
      I didn't.

      • Okay, well then I stand by my point. Ralph Nader doesn't deserve attention on election issues no matter what good ideas he has. If they're good enough ideas, he has plenty of media connections he can tell them to.

        • Then engage in the discussion at hand, rather than trying to derail it.

          • You do not get to dictate how or why I post until you become a mod. If you don't like what I have to say, you can either block me or not respond. Ordering me to do what you want isn't going to work.

            • Not a dictate. Just a suggestion if you're interested in being constructive. Maybe I'm wrong about that.
