My favorite was the clip where the crowd cheers the troops, boos the president and then cheers someone else over the course of about 30 seconds.

I loved everything about this. From the boos, to the “lock him up” chants to this:

I would say Kanye is just trolling us at this point, but then I remember that he honestly buys wholesale into his latest bullshit. Is it still trolling if you currently believe it?

It’s kind of lazy not to scroll by the top two search results when you write a piece like this. And what about google’s helpful suggestions with a long row of other porn performers’ real names?

Because it’s easier to associate wikipedia with “the man” and thus cast this as an intentional women-hating move worthy of outrage, rather than a series of disconnected events that nonetheless have an emergent intelligence to them.

...We are not electing presidents assuming their VP will take over when they die from ill health and old age. That’s not...how this works. 

Bernie just doesn’t have a feeling like he’d actually get anything done if he was president. Lot of big ideas but littel follow through (for reasons that aren’t always because of him).

So Bernie is great and everything but can anyone actually respond to me with concrete things he has actually done? Without using the words “overton window”

Betting on the horse most likely to drop dead halfway through the race isn’t a winning strategy imo, unless you’re the next in line.

“78-year-old man who just had a fucking heart attack”

This should be immediately disqualifying, but I guess we’re way past “norms” now in 2019. 

Should we infer from context that this is what you think EW does? Or all democrats except Bernie & the Squad? Either way, seems a bit unfair.

Blah blah blah Neera Tanden is the devil blah blah blah.

All good to great governmental programs are a result of incremental progressions of what was there before.

I’m not the only one getting serious deja vu? Okay then.

What has she gotten by standing up to Pelosi. Pelosi wins every time.

Which is why she didn’t just endorse Sanders—she endorsed the movement that has to build beyond the presidency and outlast him.

We all know exactly how the Sanders folks will act when their boy loses again. Just prepare for it. It’s coming. 

It’s easy to be a “diverse” base when you’re only 13-15% of Democratic voters. But sure, lean in with this. 

All I know is that AOC has demonstrated an incredible lack of good judgement by endorsing a 78-year-old man who just had a fucking heart attack. Yea, I know, we’re supposed to love everything she does. But this is pretty wild. I don’t care how beholden she feels to him. That’s poor judgement. 

This here is the problem.  Progressive’s have to divide one another.  This is why Dem’s will struggle in 2020.
