“I think Republicans recognize that they just got supremely lucky this election, that the southern border states are turning more blue, and that they can’t use a two- to four-year window to jeopardize the next 20.”

“I have a feeling the right is just kind of over this issue.“

I eagerly await the time when we can do away with the fear of everything bad you’ve ever imagined and the tiresome, performative doom-and-gloom LOOK-AT-ME-ing (“I HAVEN’T STOPPED CRYING FOR 5 DAYS STRAIGHT AND I HAD TO REPLACE MY KEYBOARD 4 TIMES WHILE WRITING THIS BECAUSE OF WATER DAMAGE”) so we can actually talk…

Trump’s also already caved on “repealing” the ACA, saying now he’s looking at keeping parts of it instead and the gay marriage thing is dead and buried.

This is most likely, yes. “Folks, the country is running so great, I can take time off and enjoy myself like everyone else can now that we’ve made America great again!

BINGO.

Nick, I want you to know this was the first article in the history of GM that I starred (and I’m a born/bred/living “coastal elite” with what I consider a not-terrible head on my shoulders).

I honestly thought, from the headline, he wanted to delay it 8 years.

This. When they say understand and listen to people, it can’t be blanket-dismissed.

Correct. Minority voters correctly assessed Bernie as a well-intentioned but completely out of touch old man from a state with a 0.00000000036% minority population who’s only real idea to make things better for minorities was as a side benefit of fixing income inequality.
