The Democratic Party is a pro-imperialist center-right neoliberal political party in the United States. It is the more socially liberal of the two right-wing ruling parties in the government of the United States, the other being the socially conservative Republican Party. These parties differ so little in terms of substantive policy that they're often referred to as the corporate duopoly.
The Democratic Party is entirely beholden to the US bourgeoisie, the capitalist-imperialist ruling class due to its reliance on its corporate donors and lobbyist money.[1] It spends millions of dollars on ads promoting far-right Republican candidates that it claims to oppose.[2]
Even the most progressive elements of the Democratic Party (namely "The Squad") are compromised by the interests of imperialism, and routinely support wars of aggression, illegal sanctions, and fail to push the party to the left as their stated goal is.
