“[A]n anti-abortion Democrat”.
I really want to highlight what you’re covering in your last paragraph - Cisneros has a decent shot with support and funding. Cisneros is a pro-choice candidate.
Yet Clyburn and Pelosi have BOTH campaigned in support of Cuellar, with Pelosi stating that she ‘always’ supports the incumbent.
I preface as I always do by…
“Religious freedom” has always only meant “religious freedom for white Evangelical Christians.” I recall a few years ago Louisiana was going to start a voucher program that could be used for private religious schools, but it ran into opposition when Republicans realized that those vouchers could also be used by…
Satanists have been making the same argument, abortion is a religious right. I believe there’s currently a court case in Texas over it?
Democrats have been so impotent my vote isn’t in play anymore. Ive been disenfranchised to zero representation in DC. Playing kind with republicans has allowed Fascism to nullify the value of voting for half the country. Im sorry but pro-segregationist Joe Biden ain’t going to make a difference.
This sort of sentiment always reads bizarre to me given the present stakes and political climate.
If you’re a Democrat and you’re in a D+10 district, you have a responsibility to your fellow Democrats in R+2 and up districts to not say things that are going to end up getting replayed endlessly on Fox News and force them to answer things like “Why do you support defunding the police?”
You’re not wrong at all, however if the options are to have alternating Democratic and Republican presidents/governments, the former barely holding the line while the latter destroys civil rights and democratic norms, then all we are talking about is a slower descent to the same level of hell.
So if Bernie won the nomination and lost the general, would that justify leftists holding that against liberals forever? ‘Cuz you fucking people won’t shut up about a problem that isn’t even a real. (I voted for Bernie and then Hillary. Then I voted for Bernie and then Biden. The only person who I know who voted for…
I didn’t read this comment. Die mad.
We’re you thinking about fascism in 2016? We lost SCOTUS, we’re about to lose reproductive choice, Dems are caving to the Fraternal Order of Police, there’s been zero pushback on the anti-CRT/pro white nationalist movement from those who govern on the left, and Obgerfell is in serious danger.
“God, so, so fucking dumb. Imagine typing out all that stuff to justify “DEMOCRATS ARE THE REAL REASON FASCISM BLAH BLAH BLAH” - You’re literally the *only* person who wrote this. I’m sorry that your reading comprehension is so limited, and your denial about the failures of the Democratic party is so steadfast, that…
Nice lack of a response, dipshit. You couldn’t even get to the second sentnce.
And they can all count on my vote because the alternative is so much worse. They know this and are content with their own ineptitude.
Could it also be that the President’s powers are also semi-vague and presidents from Teddy Roosevelt to Trump found ways to get their agenda pushed through and at times deliberately bypassed Congress to do so?
More likely his approval rating is tanking because people fully understand the implications of the phrase “Bully Pulpit” despite it not appearing in any ‘official’ role of the President and see the President absolutely refusing to use it in any capacity.
I mean, he’s delivered on nothing. At all. My little sister was out when she saw the gemming and hawing on student loan forgiveness. Especially since the public service loan forgiveness program still denies damn near all applicants who worked at lower paying govt. jobs with the promise of student loan forgiveness.
spoilers, but bourgeois liberals like newsom are firmly on the side of capital and will always rush to the aid of a profitable corporation in the crosshairs of regulators or litigation. anyone expecting anything more out of a so-called “progressive” politician like newsom is kidding themselves. he’s nothing more than…
I mean, there’s literally nothing more “terminally online” than leaping directly to accusing someone else you’ve just met of being that, from a single mid-length post, so that’s pretty funny at least. Talk about projecting! As I don’t post on Twitter, I’m not sure it’s even legally allowable to call me “terminally…
