DSA is a joke, the Democratic Party can't change.

The majority of House Democrats voted with Republicans on Thursday to defeat a Lebanon war powers resolution forced to the House floor by Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.). Why it matters: It's a blow to the anti-war left just one day after the House passed a similar measure constraining Trump's ability to wage war in Iran. Wednesday's Iran vote was the result of months of behind-the-scenes efforts by Democratic leadership to get the party's most staunchly pro-Israel lawmakers on board, along with a handful of Republicans. But Thursday's vote reveals that there are still deep divisions between progressive and centrist Democrats on Middle East policy despite their unity on Iran. Driving the news: The House voted 92 to 324 against Tlaib's resolution, which would have directed President Trump to remove all U.S. armed forces from Lebanon within seven days of passage. A decisive majority of Democrats opposed the measure, with 117 voting against it and 91 voting in favor of it. One Republican voted for the resolution, with two Democrats voting present.

The only thing democrats hate more than Palestine is Russia.

Don't know why she stays in that party

My guess is because running as an independent is basically political suicide.

True, although I think she still could retain her seat as an independent
