I want to see her take more media. I don’t think she’s as prepared many other potential candidates (Khanna is a good correllary). She’s been able to stick to very safe media spaces and that won’t fly in a campaign. Right now she’s the best option, but I’d rather see more competitive options to sharpen her. I’m also not super impressed with her last 2 years as a representative. She’s developing some… bad habits when it comes to triangulation.

I also think Platner could run. They take much harder media interviews. I think Khanna could run. I also think there are some potential candidates out of Minnesota, what with their ability to show leadership during the ICE campaign there, like Jacob Frey.

AOC has been a bit of a disappointment as she’s become more comfortable in her seat. I don’t really get the uncritical cheerleading,.although I have come to expect it. AOCs political instincts went from great in 2018 to very not good in the previous year, and instinct really matters. Her retreat from even safe media spaces also, pretty disappointing and it leaves her vulnerable in a general. Still great policies but seems to prefer communication via a panel or a from behind a microphone where she won’t have hard questions come at her. That won’t fly in a general.

Big Bobbas Two? Look whose booba now?

I think that’s the other one

I was listening to an interview with a Zeteo correspondent who was also on the flotilla, and was tortured. He mentioned being hit with munitions specifically branded for Texas police units. The degree to which Israel has influenced global law enforcement is extremely high.

It served its purpose. Now the DNC can point to a document and say “See? It had nothing to do with Israel!”

I mean I get why Martin wanted it to die. Its job was to say “See, centrists did everything right, voters just needed to vote harder”, but it was such AI slop it didn’t even get basic facts about the election, or even the spelling of candidates names correct. It was Martin’s buddy who wrote it.

@[email protected] can we be done with Martin now?

Counting or not counting gang violence?

You should go do that.

AOC should be in this fight and is absent.

I’ve been sick to my stomach over this. These people should have been brought before tribunals, not been rewarded.

Again or is this the same event from yesterday?

ss…senpai… where did you go?

Harris under this same purity test now suddenly is saying the left should work with fascists because there is common ground.

Harris introduced legislation to defund Israel? When did I miss that?

100% and my view of this threads is just the hogs eating it up.

AOC was wrong with her votes and her making this about MTG instead of about stopping genocide: its not gonna work.

Yeah this doesn’t really excuse AOC’s poor positioning on Israel while a genocide was happening. This is a complete strawman on AOC’s part and the hogs are just eating it up. And thats a problem because instead of working to improve her own political instincts on this issue, she’s enlisting a terminally online army of sportsfans to white-knight for her.

The fact is AOC did bad on Israel and funding Israel while a genocide was happening. A blind dog like MTG finding a bone eventually has no bearing on AOC doing very poorly on these issues. And judging by the ratios in this thread, the hogs have spoken.

I think the question becomes “Why are Virginia Democrats defying the will of Virginia voters?”, considering Virginian voters said they wanted this.

I just want you to know how much I appreciate you as a fan and supporter

It’s fine, I don’t mind supporting or interacting with fans

Bruh you responded to me. You could just go about your merry way but you pd won’t allow it.
