Most of us do! But people who are familiar with the underlying conditions, the coalitions, and their combined interests can usually suss out the most likely next scenarios.

59 is a totally reasonable age to become President! Obama has way too much time on his hands because of that early retirement, and it’s turned his brain to goo.

Frankly wish more people would subscribe to my Patreon just to ask questions, as the best test of a perspective is to process an issue in real time patreon.com/gothamgirlblue

I don’t make much of a living, but I’m far more accurate than many who are highly paid in the field. This fact depresses me constantly.

I’d never let Pete near the presidency, let alone within a heartbeat. He’d absolutely shank her for his ambition.

A lot of folks who supposedly analyze politics for a living are just like…not good at it?

It’s already competitive because they’ve got a Hitler-loving misogynist as the Governor candidate for the GOP

And those are people who turned out in an uncontested primary! The most dedicated of the dedicated, all to make a point! It’s either Biden or his VP.

All of the people indulging in these fantasy Democratic primary scenarios think that people vote reflexively because it’s what they themselves do; they don’t realize that turnout is a product of hard work. Unseen, unheralded work. By unseen, unheralded people.

I don’t know why they think pissing off the door-knockers and canvassing power of the party will end well, but these people don’t understand what they refuse to see

It just seems to think voters do what they’re told???? The Democratic Party is actually ruled by voters; none of these “none of the above” magical fanfic plays is gonna work — let alone without our consent

The backlash from base voters who very explicitly demanded a Black woman as VP (and on the Court) as our “seat at the table” in exchange for our electoral organizing…whew, you are not prepared. But almost all of the white alternatives are, and it’s why they keep saying no.

by choosing anyone other than harris to replace biden should he decide to step aside, the party would be revealing they very cynically chose her as veep for optics without believing she could actually be president.

These white rich liberals are so unserious they don’t know how Black people run this shit. This party is not yours! Y’all just pay for it!

I do love how GOP donors write policy and make candidates dance for them, and Democratic donors come up with unrealistic game show style nomination shenanigans which are untethered from the very real, very normal, very legal nomination process managed by regular ass lawyers and delegates.

You people know how to keep receipts and hold a grudge. It’s why I stay here.

Cursed question, but y’all remember why we don’t fuck with Olivia N*zzi? I need to deliver some tea for someone who doesn’t know the history.

I think that’s creepy upbeat: disquieting but also weirdly happy?

That’s fair! My earnestness makes it hard for me to stay negative when we could be finding a way through it, you know?

Cringe is power. Resistance is futile (and kind of depressing imho).

We earnest motherfuckers are gonna make this shit happen — and then we’re going to be delightfully upbeat about it

I am Jamal from Gaza. I was living a quiet. I was about to graduate from the College of Software Engineering. Suddenly, without any introduction, I lost everything and everything was destroyed. This link is my only hope to save my life and rebuild it. www.gofundme.com/f/sspqf-10k-...

Donald Trump tried to steal their EC votes this is a great way to prevent that from happening again! Nobody is paying attention to it; it’s the perfect time.

I feel like Michigan can do the funniest possible thing right now and join the NPVIC, giving their Electoral College votes to the popular vote winner.

Both, neither, whatever is most convenient for the narrative, as long as facts are irrelevant

I’m just trying to figure out if y’all think the 90% of Black women who vote for Democrats do so because we’re stupid, or because we’re part of the “liberal elite”?
