well she would like to actually pass legislation and improve lives and obviously understands how that happens

yeah like obviously she is a true believer in the rule of law and the legislative process in the united states or she wouldnt have wasted her time running for congress
Negotiating, compromising, legislating, etc. requires winning approval from voters. That's a good thing. She remains an exceptional communicator (which, btw, goes both ways -- to voters, from voters).

Not this one. The content of what she supports has not changed, she still is confrontational about how power is used by the US government. But being a legislator means she has to be nuanced and approach it from the perspective of reform efforts. She has no interest in burning everything down.

There's one choice, with an optional side of overt racism

You can't sincerely believe the "we are going to make it illegal to be trans" party and the "just did the biggest climate investment in history" party are the same. Like I just do not believe an adult human with two or more brain cells sincerely holds that belief.

AOC supported Biden in 2020, not an evolution The new development here is the rest of the left beginning to shun a relatively few Stalinists and campists

Bloomberg puts the headline together first, digs deep to find quotes later.
She’s going to be around because she is smart and compassionate and doesn’t make the perfect the enemy of the good. Meanwhile Bowman is probably toast in his district. And sure it’s AIPAC money but it’s also nonsense like that fire alarm and his conspiracy theory crap.

Everybody involved in this article should consider seppuku to protect their family’s dignity.
So what is the alternative? These dipshits not going to vote. That helps trump. Pull your heads out. Do you want a rapist as leader of the free world?

I guess I at least have to give you credit for not just posting a gif this time, but that's about it.

You can make the case that it's better to vote for him to keep Trump from winning, but Biden also has a pretty credible SA accusation against him.

The lefties lose election after election because they don’t play the long game. They learned nothing from the ghouls who installed their minions in the Supreme Court.

All they can think of are immediate short-term gains. Many of them also think a revolution is what's needed even though another civil war with the far right would lead to a lot of death and suffering.
Avatar
That’s unrealistic, just admit you got checkmated by the far right by allowing them to install a corrupt Supreme Court that literally overrides the elected branches of government.

Didn't she win like 85% of the primary vote? And I'm guessing the other 15% didn't go to the other guy because he was more progressive than her
No wonder I've come around to respecting her. Doing some good is always better than making lots of noise and getting little done.
