Then why are they not using that messaging? Why are they not in front of cameras repeatedly saying they wanted to give more? Why is Pelosi telling everyone it’s impactful?

They didn’t, but they do now. Much like the rich giving small concessions to the upper middle to create a bulwark against the poor, the boomers have allowed some GenX power to those that will protect boomer interests from the dirty Millennials and Zoomers

Whatever you have to tell yourself.

Any argument that moves us to the center, whether it makes sense or not.

“Defund the Police” didn’t work, so you’d rather try “Continue the Police State” instead? Cool

It does not imply a blanket removal. You assume that in bad faith to make an argument against a political objective you don’t share.

Don’t need to watch the interview. I watched his presidency. He’s not about defunding the police, and it has nothing to do with a “slogan”

So, he said he wasn’t criticizing it, then criticized it in more detail. How many times does Obama have to tell us who he is?

It’s crazy how we “respect science” until a fave has a juice cleanse. Now, we have to throw out science so we can supposedly support being “body positive”

Including criticism of fad weightloss gimmicks.

All the articles about how Lizzo can do whatever she wants with her body are literally just cover for a body-positive fave doing something problematic.

I’m surprised no one revived the ol Catholic smears against Biden that were used against JFK. Can’t have a leader that’s beholden to the pope!

The offensive part is the tacit approval of prison rape as a legitimate form of punishment. That is an evil that is clearly a part of American culture. No one was offended that it was about Trump.

Yeah, I mean it’s ok if loads of people (especially trans people put in the wrong prisons (Kamala)) are raped in prison so long as Trump is!

Yeah! Love to support rape as a legitimate form of prison punishment!

Blue MAGA all day. They’re all talk. They’re GOP with different buzzwords.

That’s not damned if you do/damned if you don’t.

Yeah, love to support using rape as a form of punishment in our country!

It’s based on his longterm friendship with segregationists back in the day. Whenever he thinks of the GOP he has dreamy thoughts of Strom.

Ah, we have now smoothly transitioned from not being able to criticize Biden because of “Orange Man” to not being able to criticize him because “midterms”
