First of all I said he “gracefully campaigned for her.” Further, he had the constitutional right to continue fighting all the way to the convention floor. Second of all the Nevada convention “mess” was overblown nonsense (overblown of course by the DNC party operatives who were quite invested in Hillary becoming the…

Oh my god, small misunderstandings and minor pedantic points. Most of which were intended to contrast his positions with Republicans anyway, not Hillary.

Where does this bizarre “raging egomaniac” narrative come from? He’s never done anything other than 1) Speak facts, 2) Campaign rigorously and inclusively (while speaking facts) even as he and his supporters were bafflingly smeared as sexist, and 3) Concede and campaign for the winner.

Yes, intense public pressure works. Anything else?

You are conflating what I just described with “ambition”

Then you’re destined to always end up with some principle-less, line-toeing hack who believes in nothing but his or herself.

My point wasn’t that she should have “kept that in check” but rather that she shouldn’t have been there at all to begin with, and we never should have let her. Don’t try to genderize something that isn’t at all related to gender. Ted Cruz is another example of this type.

No, I was actually right here, paying attention to the news.

Cool that you think that, but it’s still immaterial to Hillary’s humiliating loss.
And where did I suggest that she had to keep her emotions in check?

What, you mean your aren’t inspired by “We need you to dare greatly and lead boldly”?

More vague, meaningless platitudes from the queen of vague, meaningless platitudes.

i like this show.

Here’s a picture of the 8 year-old girl these cowboy scumfucks ventilated along with EVERYONE ELSE in the house.

We already have housing, racial justice, and labor committees in place.

Yes. I’m currently working with the DSA in Brooklyn to recruit socialist candidates for city council. Starting at the local level ala the Tea Party is real productive work.

Behold, the conscience of a liberal.

Timestream, Harry Potter, Black Mirror. episode blahblahblah. Why can’t you people evaluate present reality through the lens of...I dunno, history, instead of fucking Voldemort and television? It’s like we’ve surrendered our ability to articulate a thought without first dumping it in a vat of consumer context.

Nah, Nixon was a Keynesian, this woman probably hates him too.

Fuck yeah. The scene on K street and 14th on Friday night was a delight. Black bloc protesters had blocked off the intersection with a big bonfire, some horrible punk band was shrieking in Franklin Park, and the hired cars for the inaugural ball attendees were forced to discharge their passengers right. there.
