'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."

I'm a Democrat who lives in New York.. when I heard my Hispanic neighbors and my black neighbors complaining about illegal immigration and the tax dollars that we were spending on them, I knew it was over for Kamala..

The Party is collapsing because it's hollow and rotten on the inside

They failed the middle class for over 20 years.

A vice President who pushed for Tampon dispensers in Boys bathrooms in schools? I'm supposed to vote for this?

...and when Obama came in, he "looked forward" and allowed the banks continue on as ever without any penalties for their crimes against the people.

Trump himself told Harris in the debate that their side Never Fires anyone…as Ralph just stated

[Boethius]

Gaslighting people about near everything isn’t the best strategy. Who’d have thunk it?

Im a conservative. I think corporate lobbying should be highly illegal.

The Democratic party lost because it embraced people like Cheney instead of Nader.

Problem is that the Democrats shunned Nader when they should have been listening to what he had to say.

[sagapoetic]

The Democrats also made the massive mistake of confusing record donations from wealthy sources as support from the average American. These are two very different populations of Americans.

Nader is a trusted American intellectual who has been advocating for his fellow citizens for many years.

Mr. Nader said it all in one line that is Kamala Harris chose campaign with Lizz Chaney but not Bernie.

[donaldedmond]

A lot of the Democrat voters decided to come out and vote for Trump.

[masterbooya]

How do democrats continue to ignore Bernie? Fools!

[savagegamez]

I disagree with Nader on immigration.. As a Democrat, I am frustrated and angered. Obama left us a blueprint on how to handle illegal immigration and Biden dropped the ball.. So many Democrats i know voted for Trump because of illegal immigration disaster in NYC, Denver, and Chicago.. When billions of tax dollars is being spent on housing and feeding illegals then of course Americans are going to be mad and vote Republican

[bjonh]

When the DNC didn’t back Bernie.. I was out.

[gqftoast]

Ralph is right here, I am so sick of seeing the corporate money win.

[mightymouse]

Nader still doesn’t understand the difference between illegal and legal immigration. You all better get used to losing.
