Minnesota, it’s the hicks in the out state. Duluth is a bit mixed, but more progressive than the rural areas surrounding it, and you get up towards Roger’s and suddenly it’s trump country. Same going south, too.
The twin cities and Duluth pretty much makes me blue. (And we’re not as reliably blue as many would care to pretend.)
All I hear coming out of Cluck Cluck Chuck’s mouth is strangled… well. Clucking.
He gave up the fight.
The shit tsunami of responsibility isn’t aimed at him, but he still is getting splashed.
Well. Robin Kelly filed the articles.
We’ll see what happens, but I suspect Mike doesn’t know about any of this, either.
no… she split with him because he shat all over her senate run.
yarn bombing is dangerous. Make sure to bring adequate needles and hooks to do the job properly.
also please remember, Puce and Green are hideous colors together. use them appropriately.
Same.
Same.
And the plant might be tacky and dusty, but it doesn’t smell, and say awful things.
Less useful than those plastic plants, even.
(Oh this is going to end wonderfully.)
(By wonderfully, I’m going to assume the national statistics will hold and more of them will be shot by their own rifles.)
Which policies has he enacted in CA which mirror or support trickle down? All I ever hear is how he’s not progressive enough, but when I look at his record I see a LOT of progressive action
Because locking up homeless people is a) totally effective policy making and b) totally progressive.
more directly, to the economy, his buddy-buddy relationship with the techbros is… obvious.
while when faced with a ballooning deficit, instead cut healthcare, education, and enviromental programs.
Further, He dropped the ball on his promises and only signed a small handful of progressive goals. for example, allowing striking union members to collect unemployment benefits. The most common excuse was “oh we can’t necessarily afford that, and employers can’t either.”
Remember: Tweets are not policy… and all this fun shit trolling trump probably isn’t even him tweeting it. (most likely, he’s only scarcely aware of it at all.)
It’s pretty funny watching the left split and splinter this far out, because of all the purity testing. No one will ever be progressive enough, pure enough. And if somehow they were perfect enough to appease the left wing, there’d be 0 chance of getting red votes.
The next Dem who gets elected will do so using some centrist attitudes including towards social issues which we’re losing on badly. Might be time to get wise to that.
The last november election day, every democratic candidate that won, won on progressive platforms. Specifically, platforms that Newsom has a shitty record on. Your argument cuts both ways.
Also, how did all those red votes Harris got work out for her? She’s an awesome president- Oh. wait. that’s right SHE FUCKING LOST.
Do you see how that argument is holding us back? Centrists do not win elections. Alienating your actual base loses elections.
What, and keep the oligarchs from buying a yacht to ferry them from the yacht their helicopter can land on and their main yacht?
Newsom isn’t exactly a paragon of progressive virtues and certainly would continue to benefit from trickle-down policies.
It’s not hard to imagine that he actually likes Reagan’s policies here, never mind that his corporate donors gave him his marching orders.
Sure, but I’m pretty sure the playbook goes back to the dawn of civilization.
It’s pretty unoriginal. They’re following the Nazis playbook.
And I’m pretty sure the Nazis were following someone else’s playbook, I just can’t be bothered to go look at the list of historical assholes
Dude doesn’t know how to apologize.
no. no it did not.
also the “victim” being a broken-dick fuckwit didn’t really help either.
I dunno.
what’s fun about MrHamSandwhich was that it was jury nullification. They didn’t even argue he didn’t do it.
3rd time isn’t apparently not the charm
Apparently she ran out of people willing to shake her hand.
In the raccoon’s defense, he was just trying to give the man CPR.
Yep. Even the most one sided places in the US, they’re only about 70% one side or the other.
This is why I’m deathly afraid of a “civil” war. It’ll be neighbor on neighbor; at least for the first few days.
