Ok, I’m just saying the enormity of the upset can’t be discounted. I was following the CA-34 race, because I really liked the platform of the Green Party candidate Mejia and him as a person. He was in a one on one race with a Democratic congressman that similarly didn’t campaign, and he won just 27% of the vote…

That article literally outlines everything I thought about that race and said about it. Welder ran on a more progressive platform, more similar to what Bernie and AOC did. Thus, since you need people in Congress who support these things to get them passed, they supported him. Not some unique diss on Davids, just…

The people cosplaying as non-white are centrists. Actual people on the left don’t see any advantage in marshaling empty arguments based on shallow identity politics.

The poll was conducted by CNN two months ago. I’d imagine that in that time people have become more familiar with Harris, so that could spread the “no opinion” or “never heard of” over to the other categories. Here’s the fine print (jump to 15/29 for the start of demographic breakdowns by gender, white/non-white…

Literally nobody cares. Do you really think that people are gonna be like, “Oh shit, son, this is the last straw! That old white man done goofed now!” Do you really think you can game the discourse in order to get Sanders supporters to stop backing him? The fact that all you centrist motherfuckers can do is bitch…

Now I’m never gonna cape for Mr. White Privilege Bernie who won’t even release his taxes and only cares about white folks... But Kamala’s not the one. The only thing she likes more than locking black men up is defending corrupt prosecutors.

He’s going to win the primary, and you’re going to cast your vote for him in the general.

*Sigh*... Demographic breakdowns by gender and white/non-white status on page 15/29. The prompt is: “As I read each name, please say if you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of these people or if you have never heard of them”

59% favorable rating for Sanders among non-white respondents vs. 56% for Biden, 29% for…

lol I guess you’re gonna have to get used to invoking that ‘whataboutism’ when people bring up Kamala’s record caging poor people of color. It must be difficult to back a candidate so vehemently when they have zero convictions save for “if it’s good for my career, it’s morally justified”. Bravo!

Look, eating ass is very popular with the youth these days, so I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make with this orgiastic politico-fantasy scenario...

But in all seriousness, I can’t help but laugh to see how you talk about Harris and her record. One of the things The Root does *right* is its condemnation of the…

Maybe *you* need to put down the pipe. AOC beat Joseph Crowley, who was next in line after Pelosi to be the Dem speaker of the house! She’s also changing the *national narrative* on progressive taxation, the Green New Deal, and working class politics generally -- and yet you dismiss her as a “juvenile delinquent”? Do…

Yeah, so Sanders has perhaps the largest proportion of PoC voter support out of any 2020 candidate, but sure, go ahead and erase them because they don’t share your centrist positions

Literally one of the biggest stories of the 2018 midterms was AoC, who went out to campaign with Sanders, who will most likely endorse…

“Unpopular” doesn’t win elections. Grabbing power and abusing it wins elections. Is this ideal? No. Is it reality? Yes.

Because this continued idea that we should be the “bigger people” and be bipartisan isn’t an ideal shared by the GOP, demonstrated by everything they did in the last 2 years.

Any Democrat who uses the word “bipartisanship” needs to be politely escorted from the building and cordially asked to never return.
