I’m too sick for this idiot. Wake me when my pho gets here.

OK, everyone who swears they were dying to vote for her in 2016, here you go. And don’t tell me the DNA thing (stupid as it was) is what’s personally turned you off, either.

...I swear to god, though, if we do the same divisive bullshit we did in 2016 when the nominee is named, whomsoever it happens to be, I’m just gonna give up entirely on the idea of anyone in the party having any principles beyond “I want my way, or I’m taking my ball and going home.”

Scalding Take: Insisting on dividing the party into “Leftists” and “Centrists”—as if either term is an insult—is a big part of the division you think people are “screaming” about.

But, hey, let’s keep making it about an us-vs-them situation when the real foe is not only clearly defined, but absolutely loves watching us…

I’m taking the big picture view. It’s one mistake. Was it a big mistake? Meh, debatable to me. I’m not going to take the Republican route and harp on it endlessly.

If we let this DNA thing die like it should, maybe Liz can be a worthy candidate. Mistake? Yeah probably but I’m past it. It’s not a deal breaker AFAIC.

I expect the Democratic field to be huge, initially, but I expect we’ll see it self-winnow pretty quickly.

If we wind up with the same situation the Republicans had in 2016, I can only imagine the level of acrimony and infighting we’re going to have to deal with prior to the eventual naming of a nominee.

...I swear to…

Her announcement video is amusing to me because she basically says true things: that rich people are getting richer by giving themselves massive tax cuts, that Fox News is a big echo chamber of toxicity, that ethnic minorities in the US don’t fall through the cracks, but they are stuck in economic traps. This all…

Good, a real candidate steps up to the plate. I hope Senator Warren and anyone with a brain leaves the DNA mess in the rear view mirror where it belongs. Trump will of course kick that dead horse many times when she gets in his sights.

Shut up, tomato.

Doing the one right thing in all the wrong ways without coordinating with our allies and experts is usually a bad idea in the long run.

“Except the results are FAR BETTER than I ever said they were going to be!”

Credit where credit is due: He did indeed run on bringing troops home, so, kudos to him for sort of doing what he said he was going to do.

Yeah you definitely can smell that privileged white man panic on him.

I mean, nothing is impossible. I would not be shocked if he did. But he’s savvy enough to know that him putting his full weight into being a Trump Republican will certainly not win him the presidency (Trump himself could win in 2020, so again, no more shocks to be had).

He is pretty thirsty and not very self-aware, so I could see him running for President again.

You are correct about intellect being too strong a word.

+8 different bosses

You aren’t even joking.

I'm surprised the cops didn’t shoot the black guy to “deny the perp a hostage.”
