In fairness, The Root seems heart set on helping out with that.

Thank God for Killer Mike, out here taking a domestic abusing violent grifter and humanizing him in his run for Senate.
LOL

“Nina Turner Doesn’t Need the Establishment”
There was literally an open Supreme Court seat when this clown, with her gimmick glasses and sitcom catchphrase, was actively campaigning against the Democratic nominee in 2016. Not in the primary, but the general election. She was still doing in 2020 and won’t answer if she voted Biden or not because of course she…
This doesn’t read like political reporting. It reads like a hack advertisement bought and paid for by the campaign itself.
Oh man, reading the comments I have to love how much this ridiculous piece of partisan propaganda for an incompetent hack just blew up in Jez’ face. Was this paid for by her campaign? It sure reads that way.
Yup, these people aren’t politicians; politicians is about getting stuff done. She’s a grifter, no way around it.
She does, actually, when “the establishment” means “a majority of voters in the district she is running it.”
I often find it strange which people that the ultra progressive wing of the party chooses to elevate. Of all the people you could choose to be your standard-bearer, this is who you pick? This is the hill you want to die on? Nina Turner? Surely, we can do better. She is not a good leader. She does not bring people…
As someone who lived in this district and still lives in the area...I hardly know where to start with this article. It is clearly written by someone who has not had to live with Nina Turner day-in and day-out as part of your local political landscape. She is exhausting. To that end, allow me to shed some light on why…
I was in this district while this campaign was going on for the special election. Shontel Brown ran a professional, organized, and disciplined campaign. She came off very, very well in her public appearances, as someone who would take the job seriously and work toward Democratic goals. Nina Turner, on the other hand,…
You’re missing my point [again]. It’s not about Williamson as a person; it’s that taking someone who has a very minimal platform as an indication of they level of support this person for a candidate is telling.
Both Nina Turner and Brianna Joy pushed an anti-semitic narrative for her loss to Shontel Brown, claiming the DMFI sabotaged her, and singling out Shaker Heights, with its higher than average jewish demographic — but conveniently ignoring all the other areas with very heavy African American demographics where she also…
She could be the most amazing speaker, but it doesn’t make her less of a D-list celebrity in the political world.
Also, I’m guessing this is the Brooklyn definition of working class.
Isn’t Marianne Williamson the political equivalent of some 90s band playing at the county fair? They had that one song everybody kind of knows, and was the biggest name they could book?
She has done almost everything to alienate the Democratic establishment and their backers, and then cries about it when the Democratic establishment and their backers... don’t want to help her.
I hope she loses again. She represents everything that is ineffective, obnoxious, and fascist-enabling of the very online left. She holds Democrats — including Democratic voters — in contempt, then whines when they reject her for that.
