    Democrats. The DNC stands for the Democratic National Committee, they’re one of the nations two core political parties.

      I know what the DNC is. I’m asking who we specifically could have elected that would have gotten us universal healthcare. It wasn’t even on the platform agenda for 2024.

          Yes, but I’m asking you to back up your argument:

          Then the murderers would be the voters who consistently choose this system.

          Then who should the voters have chosen? We’ve had many Democrats, but no universal healthcare. It’s not even part of their platform. Yes, they’re better than the Republicans by a country mile, but you said the voters chose this system, so who could we have voted for?

              You said the Democrats, and I told you we’ve elected loads of Democrats and obviously do not have universal healthcare. You’ve also failed to mention a single Democrat we could have elected to get universal healthcare. Can you provide any justification for your claim that it’s the voters’ fault that we’re in this mess?

                We have not elected loads of democrats, we haven’t even elected a full 50 to senate in about a decade. The most we ever elected to the senate was 58, in 2013.
