    Neoliberals would love it…

    There’s a reason they view progressives as a bigger threat; if they lose to progressives their only chance of retaining power is moderating the Republican party and switching back.

    They can’t fucking do that, I don’t know if anyone can in less than a generation. trump blew their last shot at that, and if they try to create a third party, it just hands a progressive ran Dem party everything.

    Their only chance is depressing Dem turnout 2028 and hoping they can get a corrupt chair in to run a rigged 2032 primary, during which Republicans would keep control.

      The Baileys told me that they think Schumer is a lying fraud and that they never said any of the stuff Chuck says about them. If Chuck wants to bring them in and prove it one way or another thatd sure be helpful and appreciated. Otherwise I gotta go with the word of the Baileys that I heard with my own ears.

    Lots of democrats in power are racists as well so it gets hard to move forward to a better day where we can leave that useless bullshit behind us. Maybe it’s a human thing or maybe it’s a capitalist thing. If the earthlings were all one colour you can bet that there would be sub-factions with the same kind of hate.

      I dont like people who chew with their mouths open and make smacking noises, and I dont feel bad about oppressing them with rude statements and not passing them anything at the dinner table. They can stand up, walk over, and fetch it themselves.

      Yeah, I said it.
