I love Bernie but unless you live in Vermont, his presence is now irrelevant, and the DNC isn’t going to allow another one of him to spring up again.

No.

It’s over. Trump is never going to be held accountable for any of it. In a few years he’ll die peacefully in his bed like Kissinger did.

I wouldn’t be surprised.

I’m sure that’s true too, but that’s not the reason she lost, and Democrats will continue to stack losses if that’s the narrative that they go with.

Democrats haven’t been ceding male voters to Republicans for 16 years because they hate women. It’s because, in the liberal and activist communities, it’s become customary and accepted to treat men like shit.

Exactly. Harris was tasked with defending and indefensible record. It’s that simple.

It’s simple, and history has borne this out many many times.

In a bad economy, no one cares about your politics if you’re the candidate of change. There’s a reason why Harris spent two months repeating memes instead of defending Biden’s policies, because it’s impossible to defend the fact that you had four years to rule and there are more people working 2-3 jobs just to survive.

They knew they needed to appeal to workers. Instead, they spent most of the campaign repeating this meaningless platitude about joy to people who are being worked to death.

This is why.

Hundreds of millions of people working paycheck to paycheck wanted change and she spent two months of her campaign repeating memes.

bundle up everywhere else.

It should be noted that if you don’t need to heat the room you’re in, you can also get an electric blanket for $30 or less, and those babies work infinitely better at keeping you warm than a space heater.

Same.

I will road trip or take a train instead of flying. I’d rather be on the road twelve hours than in a plane for one.

She’s not wrong.

Fair point. I’ll delete my comment.

Sadly, you’re probably right.

TBH, it’s weird that you say that, but it makes perfect sense.

Certainly true. I wonder if they’d rule differently if it were demonstrated to them that they’re not untouchable, though.

Nailed it.

Both parties are heavily funded by the 0.01%, and that’s neither a lie nor a coincidence.

I found this pretty shocking. Apparently Lebanon sent three drones, two of which were intercepted.

And the shocking thing for me isn’t that a drone managed to get through, but that a head of state backed by the US came so close to real accountability for perpetrating genocide.

Man, I love The Good Liars. They are great at improv and quite adept at disarming Trump supporters and getting them to say stupid things.

With that said, the hallmark of the Trump presidency to me was that the good things he did were generally for the wrong reasons, like when he redeployed the US military from Syria and snatched money that was budgeted for various military projects to build his stupid wall.

EDIT Not sure why you’re all downvoting. The government did literally lie to all of us about Iraqi WMD’s, so I’m not sure why you’d think aren’t lying about deploying troops to Israel.

I mean, we’re being told that’s why it is. We were also once told we had to fight Iraqis because they had nukes.

I don’t think any of us really knows what’s happening there.

If it served the 1%, it stays.
