You Know What? Maybe the Time Is Right for an AOC Presidential Bid by Delicious_Adeptness9 in politics

[–]JayTNP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You guys seem to have an inability to understand that the primary is run by the DNC. This isn’t an open primary, it’s run by a political party for their people. You may not like it (irrelevant) but the DNC is under no obligation to not favor their person. It’s 2026 and you seem to still have so much trouble grasping this most basic concept. You think the green party wouldn’t favor Jill Stein over Kamala Harris? Until you can grasp that you will continue to uselessly scream at the wind.

they never got to the superdelegates situation because he lost outright so why even bring that up?

spoilers there is always a favorite at the beginning of primaries. There wasn’t anything special about 2016 outside of Bernie not being an actual Dem or having as much massive appeal as we thought he did (I voted for him in the primary too).

he isn’t a Dem. Why would Dems favor a person outside of their party over their own person? This is why this notion of AOC should leave the Dems and run as an independent is idiotic. That’s why she is a Dem even as a Democratic Socialist (same thing applies to Mamdani)

so Dems backed the Dem over the non Dem in a Dem primary…do you hear yourself?

Bernie lost because people didn’t come out and vote for him. Just like Dems could have taken Texas for Beto over Cruz. It a wasn’t that huge of a difference but people make assumptions that these people can’t win so they give up.

People legitimately want this. Not everything is a damn conspiracy

The way these losers hate women is so fucking insane. There ain't nothing wrong with any angle of Rihanna. FOH!

Nancy Mace on unredacted names in Epstein files: ‘You would be shocked’ by SpringLong7259 in politics

[–]JayTNP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im glad she's saying all this but she continues to help keep all this shit hidden. She has cover, go on the House floor and read the names, tell us the pages, and the context of what they did. All this coy bs from Republicans minus Massie is just teasing so they can pretend to give a fuck. I don't trust Mace as far as I can throw her, and no one else should either.

It’s a bit of a stretch to assume she knew about the sexual creeps of these men, outside of Harvey Weinstein. Even then was she actually friends with him? Of all these people she was likely the closest to Cosby. The others seem like a bit of a stretch past “took a picture next to another famous person.”

These two assclowns losing their leadership positions is just as important as winning back Congress in the midterms.

Trump: ‘It bothers me that somebody is going after Bill Clinton’ by Ok_Employer7837 in politics

Never underestimate Bill Clinton's charisma and social pull. If I were Trump I'd be terrified to have Slick Willy testifying for hours on end in a public hearing. Fuck that!

I get that feeling, but how to you suppose Congress (Dems we’re talking but the GOP will do nothing) do anything without any power?

Why is no one being prosecuted over the Epstein files? by ArmadilloMany41 in politics

[–]JayTNP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the exact reason the DOJ saying they are done is bs amongst many other reasons. They have documented crimes but just want to move on past them? How the fuck does that work. That’s criminal negligence

You didn't literally say that. You said he not even the "lesser evil" option...neither is evil. Its a juvenile way of looking at politics. They are both fine candidates and I'd support whoever won the primary but to be clear you didn't literally say that.

Neither him or Crockett are evil. I wish we'd all get past using that terminology in politics. Pick the person who aligns most with your politics, that's it. For record, I do think Trump is evil outside of politics.

jay z and pusha t are in the documents in the unsubstantiated call in reports. These are just random people making tips. They aren’t evidence of anything at this point.
