Yep. I’m reading the absolutely fucking exceptional book “The Way We Never Were” by Stephanie Coontz that was originally published in 92 (it was updated in 16) and man, does it tell us exactly how the fuck we got here. It even mentions Trump multiple times from the original edition as a warning. It’s a great book. It…

Amen!  Can you say that again...but louder so those people can hear you?

Call them like I see them.  What has the black population of South Carolina contributed in terms of electoral college votes for Democrats in my lifetime?  (I was born in 1981.)  Maybe that constituency shouldn’t have such an early say in the primaries considering they’re just as good of a barometer as North Dakota…

Yes. People loved it when you went bankrupt because you ended up in the ER, or when you had to take on decades of debt just to get a college education.

Hillary Clinton was the safest choice. John Kerry was the safest choice. Al Gore was the safest choice. But this time the safest choice will get the win for sure!

White Democrats in Iowa and New Hampshire mostly chose candidates who weren’t Biden. Black Democrats in South Carolina, whom you refer to as “idiots,” overwhelmingly chose Biden. Then every other Democrat in the race endorsed Biden over Sanders. That’s why Biden won. 

the first part of your statement is why he will almost always be the best we can do. because the alternative is so mind blowingly bad, the opposition will always look better, and as long as people rightfully say no trump, the dems dont have any reason to try to earn votes from people they already have.

It’s not. At least I really hope it’s not. I hope... I have to believe, that there are better, smarter people out there. Biden isn’t the president anyone wants, but he’s the one the country deserves.

Do we really want a left wing trump?

Because idiots in South Carolina, Alabama, Oklahoma and states that will never EVER go blue in November decided the corpse of Joe Biden was somehow the best thing for the Democratic party.

Because people don’t want progress, they want a return to what they imagine as/pretend is “normal.”

“so ignorant *or selfish* they simply cannot comprehend *or accept* any other world view.”

This just shows the outlandish beliefs that are entrenched in this part of the Country.

President Donald Trump called the footage “very, very disturbing,”- You left out the part were Trump said “ But we don’t know what happened off video.”

I did a reverse Becky/Karen today! O yes I did!

You are absolutely, 100%, unarguably, entirely right. And for what it’s worth, I absolutely blame my fellow white people for all of this shit, both Trump, and the fact that we will likely be stuck with Biden. It’s fucking ridiculous and it pisses me off to absolutely no end.

Which brings up Elizabeth Warren, the candidate with the most progressive and Black agenda message in the mix; why not support her instead of Biden? After all, didn’t she go out of her way to court black voters, particularly Black women? Why did she fail to garner any black support? Why didn’t the Black political…

I get all the reasons being put out as to why the majority of black people supported Biden and not Sanders, but to my thinking the reasons do not overwhelm the fact that Joe Biden remains the architect of a crime bill which sent a whole generation of black people into America’s prison/concentration camps. I even…

Can we just fast forward in time to whenever Stacey Abrams is president?

“Maybe we need to unplug humanity and plug it back in. I assume our hero has been in multiple wars and has seen the worst humanity have to offer. Perhaps we should let it go.”
