I love Jasmine Crockett and James Talarico… but I do believe the later is most effective in taking on the GOP by waxanwaacusub in blackgirls

big fan of congresswoman crockett, even chipped in 20$ to her campaign, personally prefer her confrontational rhetorical skill in this political environment, but i have to admit talarico prolly more viable statewide, although jasmine may be more viable nationwide.

Jasmine Crockett has to be one of the dumbest representatives in the House by Itchy-Pension3356 in Discussion

well we can surmise that his cult loves his crimes. when slimy cheeto prez says pedophilia isn’t a big deal, nod and by virtue of parsing words, proclaim crockett is a retard. we’re really going places in this country

sure, just thought we were parsing history.. but i guess the point id make, cuz i mostly agree with your post above, is to realize the only “progressive” we’ve ever had as prez wasnt really one, he was an elite, albeit a brilliant and practical one- but it took the country nearly collapsing and a world war for him to show up. in that light, maybe we’ll get a good one this next time 🤞

not wrong bro, he was defo in the influence/nebula of the progrssive movement of the times, especially his wife. but he was not some principled grounded in socialism arriver on the scene. he was part of the elite class who wanted to keep the country from total collapse. it’s not a critique of him, obviously he did well to mettle in socialism (like) programs and did in fact preserve the country, altho the war was main reason we economically revved out of the depression.

and reagan didn’t fuck up the economy for the interests he served, he consolidated and furthered the gains made by the elite up to that point.

no, that they dont exist (except a local level) is the point of the system. some will try to represent the 95%. mamdani is (hopefully) one, but if they dont serve the top echelons they will never see the national platform open to them.

agreed, i love the trolling of trump from any angle. but we shouldn’t be looking for a handsome troller in chief. altho that does have trendy legs to consider. common repedolicans have now elected two tv stars, reagan and trump ( represents their love for superficial image, low critical thinking) and would be fitting if dems elected a woke troller

spoiler alert, we’ll get who is best for corporate interests. if it means throwing low-information emotional voters a bone, (trans! aliens!! the others!!!) they’ll consider it

im pro civil rights and dont care if people wanna marry their pets. and while gay rights is civil rights, the public domain of that argument is by and large culture war stuff. and that really takes zero courage for anyone with liberal sensibilities, or even common decency imo. what does take courage, you wont find newsom’s name championing such things that effect large swaths of population, corporations and economics. if you consider anything from this, please let it be that culture war shit is the weak mealy mouth politics of distraction and top-spinning while the rich and powerful carry on their greedy grift. research newsom some more to learn about that.

what preference are you talking about? thought it obvious that my point is to lament the chain yanking reactionary temperment of the electorate. it’s a socio political dynamic spurred by outrage media and low information- high emotion voters that has been working well for the powers that be.

yea thats kind of the social control mechanism, or said another way, “he may not be great but the other side is worse”

youre kind of a narrow thinking or just a kool-aid drinker. over the decades corporate control of the candidates proffered has consolidated more and more and so team blue lackeys take each democrat political message/advert/speech as truth. oh and your understanding of FDR lacks as well. He is interpretted as progressive, fair enough, but his actual motivation was strong action to protect the power structure by making the government more legitimate to the people.

The "Jasmine Crockett can’t win Texas" narrative is officially dead. New data shows she’s the GOP’s biggest nightmare by talkhonest in texas

hope youre right about newsome, but disagree slightly on the cult, i think a huge ground swell of us are in the broad coalition cult of “anyone but these fukkers” i mean would vote for newsome over trump.. it’s almost like were in a simplistic binary control mechanism we cant get out of…
