And Pelosi.  Never forget Pelosi is just as much of an opportunist as Schumer.

With Democrats like Chuck, we won’t even need republicans to be disgusted with. It gets very hard to say there is a difference between the major parties when spineless opportunists are in charge. The republicans will always demand more and never stop moving the goalposts.

I just do not understand the bizarre obsession with Greenwald and why so many misrepresent his views.

And the left continues to eat its young.

There might be something newsworthy/debatable/shameworthy in here, but the dominant theme here is bickering, infighting, and shooting yourselves in the feet.

Since the rich own all the money and leave the scraps to the rest, and that small slice is further inequitably divided,…

I mean she was invited to a roundtable to discuss the topic, so I guess someone else wanted to hear her point of view on the subject? Or maybe they knew it would get them clicks and attention, and they didn’t actually give a damn what she thought. There’s no hard facts of how much as an aggregate latina women make…

Yup re: Schumer, who, btw, is prob worse than Pelosi in the spineless corporatist Dem department

I don’t care who the speaker is as long as they maintain decorum and try to win over moderate republicans. That’s how democrats can really excite the base.

Yeah I don’t understand why you’d want the person who was in charge the last time you lost your majority it be back in charge again. As for Schumer I think had they won control of the senate he probably would have faced similar challenges but he didn’t so most people probably see it as a moot point.

this would be a third election given to rick scott. she should step down on that alone.

Keep pushing to the left America. It wasn’t going to be fixed in one election. Keep the momentum going for 2020 and lets allows the real progressives to take over.

pssst. it’s worth looking up exactly how that happened. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enabling_Act_of_1933

and if you are willing to compromise with them on the Jewish Plot To Destroy Our Country Must Be Stopped, you forfeit all right to shock when a 2010 or 2016 happens.

a thing I was told recently, in all seriousness, by a self-proclaimed centrist, was “if my choice is between someone who wants to genocide the Jews, and someone who wants to genocide the Jews and Gypsies, I’ll proudly support the one who wants to genocide the Jews.”

in a pure mathematical single-shot game-theory…

Lol i bet you scold people for not voting too.

You mean like the years 2008-2016? Obamacare came from a Republican think tank and was first implemented in MA by Mitt Romney, and was still described as an insane Communist socialist government overstep by the right. It was centrism defined, and it should have been the most bipartisan thing imaginable, but the center …

That’s not fair. Hillary would check the polls first and then pee on you three weeks later. 

Hey man, I freely admit that I’ve undergone my own evolution. Obama seemed fine to me for the most part. And that’s what I’m talking about - he wasn’t actually fine, and the state of affairs was and is not fine either.

One of the more discouraging aspects of the last few years, and there have been many, is finding out how many of my friends are just content to direct their hatred towards Trump and Trump alone, and just yearn for the Obama years of a cool dude being in charge even as he double-tapped weddings in Yemen and deported…

Tough shit, chuckles!
