Democrats when they are the majority: "OMG, the Republicans are preventing us from giving you any of the things that you want. I guess we gotta go bomb a bunch of brown people, and spend a bunch of monies on our rich friends."
Democrats when they are the minority: "What do you want us to do? We don't have any power. I guess we gotta vote for the Republican policies."

I felt like I wasn't getting enough done, so I started making reports on what I had worked on at the end of the day. That helped me realize that while I may not have "completed" a lot, I had made progress on a lot of things. It helped me realize that I was working a lot more than I thought.

I used to randomly start driving home no matter where I was originally going.
Headed back to work after lunch? Get lost in thought and start driving home.
On my way to see my SO? Get lost in thought and start driving home.
Going to the Doctor? Get lost in thought and start driving home.
No, the problem is Neoliberalism. The Dems that you listed aren't the outcasts of the party, they are the goal of the party. Their entire purpose is to absorb the rage of leftists into thinking that one of the two parties is actually fighting for the people.
