You can depict Jimi Hendrix and his rhythm section!

Our duty is to win the election, and mitigate what damage we can. That’s it. Feeble impeachment fapping will not do that.

The price tag of Green Deal + Single Payer + Job Guarantee is orders of magnitude greater over ten years than projected Defense spending. I can’t tell if this persistent false equivalence by Splinter writers is due to mendacity or just laziness. One can make a case that repurposed premium payments from FICA will fund…

I also like to smell my own finger. We should hang out.

Policy > integrity at this juncture. Too much is at stake. I can kind of respect that, although I despise their policies.

Even that doesn’t really hold water, if you think about it. The most flyover-y of the flyover states are deep red, and therefore ignored. Or they’re Illinois, and deep blue, so ignored. At least the purple states in the Rust Belt and the Sun Belt, which really determines things, have people in them.

The rest of his conclusions are poop, because he is David French, but this part is accurate:

They run that dink-and-dunk billionaire offense. Isn’t flashy, but it gets results!

Too many veto points. Presidential systems are bad enough, but then we load the whole thing up with unnecessary checks and balances such as bicameralism, federalism, the filibuster, the onerous amendment process...

Her district is bluer than a celibate smurf’s testicles, so who cares.

All colleges should be nationalized, and all private schooling should be illegal. From there we could redistribute resources to meet the needs of society, to level things out. It’s one of my more authoritarian beliefs, and not a terribly popular one, but there you go.

2020 strategy will be 70% red baiting, 15% immigration, 10% late term abortion, 5% bad faith anti-semitism accusations

But you guys, if we eliminate the filibuster, the GOP will use a bare majority to try to repeal Obamacare, or even privatize Social Security...wait, I’ll come in again.

Vegetable transgressions are a slippery slope.

I like the part where it sounds like the other part. (all the other parts)

GAH.

The senate really needs to go, but aside from staging a coup from the White House and declaring it an illegitimate body, I really wonder how you can do it. Article V is fucking tricky, because it says you can’t amend a state’s equal suffrage without its “consent”. I guess if the Constitution were amended such that…

Ultimately we should fucking nuke it, because it’s bad for the left on balance:

I would prefer more of a Warren-esque wishy-washy approach to provide a little thought leadership while still remaining noncommittal in the instance where Democrats don’t win a senate majority in 2020. Because 1) we probably ain’t gonna, and 2) small-d democratic principles aren’t so important to me as enacting…

He’s like a Turing Test, and not a very good one.
