I’m still struck by the inanity of attacking progressives for losses in moderate seats. What did the candidates campaign on? What did they talk about when they engaged voters?

“Put on blast”? You sound ridiculous. It’s not her fault that other representatives couldn’t run a good campaign. She won her damn district, which is more than I can say for others.

Trump with a rack? Fuck off. Seriously. Your misogyny is so blatant, and I’m tired of posters responding as if you aren’t some sort of sexist troll.

In continuing efforts to not rock the boat, i see the party is in full swing of trying to discredit if not outright attack AOC and other progressives of the party. The ink is not even dry and they are trying to snuggle into their nest of banality.

The people that distort the message will ALWAYS distort the message no matter what it says. Why the fuck should we cater to them? And really AOC’s main point was that Dems lost seats because they had no online strategy. The not progressive enough part grabbed headlines but her main point was a better online strategy.

All of them blaming “the squad”or “a progress agenda” for their lack of reaching out to their own constituents need to be primaried the fuck out. No more middle ground.

Rep Clyburn needs to be primaried. He either forgot who the hell he’s supposed to be working for or he decided to go into politics for the wrong reasons.

I would think you would have to be kidnapped, hypnotized, drugged etc... to come to the conclusion that you’re gonna spend time in freaking ALBANY ?

You’re making fun of him, but that $20 would go a long way towards paying his taxes.

I know that this will be a controversial opinion, but I saw a few episodes and didn’t think that the show was good.

I really don’t get this take at all. Pence’s notedly lazy interjections allowed Kamala to shut him down with the repeated “I’m speaking” verbal lashings and condescending smiles, which I thought played directly to her strengths and highlighted that we were watching a sniveling twerp debating a woman who he should not

I’m just wondering why we invented a new way of labeling accuracy just for JA. Normally it’s the completion %. Not the existence of individual errant throws.

Obama is also a war criminal and he can rot in the Hague, too, for all I care. But if you wanna stack bodies, Bush still wins by a mile. Bush has caused far more active harm in the world than Trump by a long shot.

Remember how George W. Bush is a war criminal, who lied in order to start an unnecessary war that killed, by some estimates, over a million Iraqi civilians and whose consequences we are still grappling with today? Remember how Bush expanded the intelligence state to a degree that it will be nigh-impossible to chip

“For all of the Christians that are questioning my post with my husband’s hand on my boob

Gore. Kerry. Hillary. Biden. ONE battle? Are you high? The reason Trump even exists as a possibility is because of Democrats continuing to lose by running centrists.

He’s got her vote, why the hell would he work with her on anything? This is why you need to put the screws to politicians during primary season, these discussions need to be held ahead of giving anyone anything.

Rosa Parks could’ve just moved to the back of the bus after being asked, too. She made her point. Didn’t need to get arrested, right?

What tangible thing changed?

Welp, that was probably the shortest-lived revolution and protest on record.
