    Bullet dodged. Imagine if she’d won that primary. The right is just trying to wring all the use out of their asset now that she’s useless, and that “peace mission” never had a chance. Good riddance!

      Imagine if she’d won that primary.

      I mean just consider how many MAGA/ Republican sleeper agents are already present in the Democratic party who made it there under the banner of “ABWD”?

      These types of Democrats still make up the core of the party, and almost exclusively make up leadership.

        This was always the fight, dragging politics this far to the right took decades, it’s not going to be an easy or quick fix to get it back.

      Bullet barely dodged but glad it was dodged with a candidate that actually has a strong moral character. However you know that she’s far from the only one who would and do sell out Democrats and Progressives for a buck.

      This says so much more about Steven’s than it for anybody else. You cannot possibly claim to be a Democrat a month ago, then support somebody that has the views that Roger’s has.

      Clearly she is hoping to get something out of this. Maybe a conservative podcast or a fox news appearance or something.

        For me, the best part about all of this is that her motivations don’t seem to matter to anyone. Associating with a Republican is crime enough for a ton of people to drop her like the radioactive waste she is, and that brings me joy.
