True.
And they fought it all the way.
They tried to sabotage every progressive that ran.
They literally fucked our chances for Florida as well and fuck over Nixon.
I think she was provided virtually nothing from them and had to rely on grassroots/external funding and came within two points. Heaven forbid Floridians aren’t insane but that’s another issue. Imagine actually doing something worth bragging about with those two idiots. They need to stfu and get out of the way.
The Dems future and America’s future is going to be stymied with them (and Newsom – we know you’re creeping over) at the face of it.
i think that was the piker effect
and it worked beautifully
i mean AES almost fucked up his seat by underperforming but everyone else did a blinder
They know full well they aren’t aligned with their voters. They know full well voters don’t buy their bullshit. They know full well their presence hurts the party and by extension (in the present moment) democracy. They don’t care. They’ll cling to power even if they have to burn the whole party down. They’re no better than MAGA.
I really think this is the fundamental premise of the shapeshifting reptilians running our government conspiracy theory:
We’ve been seeing them. JD Vance is really obvious in his pivot from being anti-Trump to pro-Trump because that furthered his career. And then there’s Lindsey Graham, who warned the Republican party Trump will be its ruin, and then he reconfigured himself to be Trump’s most loyal supporter.
They’re on both sides. John Fetterman. Graham Platner showed his true colors on the campaign trail once he was pressured to step down. Haley Stevens eventually revealed herself. Here in California, it was conspicuous how Newsom, Becerra and Porter supported the tax on billionaires, but with enough pressure from the money (which threatened their careers) they reversed their positions.
Our political class teems with these creatures who contort themselves in order to cling to power. They don’t have actual positions themselves, and thus they’re very easy for lobbyists to control.
Elon Musk might be one, since he’s now trying to pivot to appeal to liberal congress people who will control the US budget, and might not give him no-bid contracts anymore. We need to pressure our officials to remember that he is totally a neo-nazi.
(Reptilian enthusiasts also point to figures like Susan Dell, or the weird moments that Dick Cheney wouldn’t blink for minutes at a time. Actually the whole MAGA women phenomenon fits the trope nicely.)
Getting these two worthless slugs back as leaders is like winning the lottery and getting paid in Taco Bell coupons.
Taco Bell coupons are redeemable.
Maybe Blockbuster bucks
I think we may have the one consensus politicalmemes is ever likely to see.
I already wrote to my Rep not to elect Jeffries.
My Senator is Schumer. My other Senator is Padilla. Maybe he’ll listen.
They’re electing leadership November 18th/19th so write your crabby letters now.
Hell tell Schumer too. Tell him to step down. Sign it as The Baileys, might work.
what orders did kushner give hakeem
Mon-American here I assumed these two kept their power because Israel basically owns your politicians and any one arguing against support for Israel gets destroyed by Israeli assets in your government.
Bernie, AOC, Mamdani and other socialist Democrats are your way out America… Stop propping up the terrorists of Israel and let Palestinian children be allowed to live.
Yes and no: the main driving force behind political corruption in the US is capital interests.
While AIPAC et al is ALSO about gaslighting and political blackmail, both American zionism and Israel itself is inextricably tangled together with American robber capitalism.
A “marriage of calamitous convenience” might be a better metaphor, if a bit less straightforward 🤔
Sad but true…
“We’re really popular now. Time to run Hillary again.”
I want Schumer to go down to McDonald’s and order the Fortnite Burger but be forced to eat the Day Z Burger instead
Take all grifters out. Their tacit collaboration with fascists should be punished severely. But we can make do by having them disappear into oblivion like Queen Mab in the Merlin miniseries.
Removed by mod
and here’s the difference between normal people and MAGA
we want to hold everyone accountable, MAGA just wanted to hurt people
The only thing these TRAITORS are fit to lead is a walk to the gallows.
