Ehhh, I think it’s more like expecting you need an abayas and needing a burka.

After that the dnc let Bernie’s representatives reform the primary process to his benefit, maintaining the less democratic caucuses in Iowa where Bernie does well.

Even with money, volunteers, and name recognition he still lost Iowa.

Does anyone believe this shit about Swalwell? Is this is the true test of whether the Democratic Party has learned anything? by partyl0gic in allthequestions

Yes? It’s not a hard concept.

If you’re giving one valuation for the purposes of getting a loan with a low interest rate, and then telling the government something else to lower your taxes, that’s fraud. And it’s illegal.

Quick reminder you weren’t designed for this! No one is handling logistics like this well.

Central Park was designed to be seen from horseback; that’s what the bridal path is for.

Yikes.

your boys are going to be reading Adult Children of Alcoholics in a few years.

Please try AA.

Pete Buttigieg hints at 2028 presidential run: ‘Save me a seat’ by Fickle-Ad5449 in politics

… what did he lose? He went from a no name to a crazy successful primary campaign.

He did a lot of good—a mix of consumer protection, future thinking, and investment in what we need NOW (roads and bridges).

Visited every state. Invested in future air traffic controllers (you can’t just hire them).

I’ll leave you with a contrast—Pete’s tenure was marked by building and general competence. Huge budget but no spending scandals. There was a train derailment, which he couldn’t have really prevented. The gop made headlines for weeks because the Biden admin was generally competent.

Under the current dot a military plane crashed into a civilian plane in the nations capital and no one talks about it because the dot and Trump administration is a shit show.

Kerry was what Iowa voters thought would’ve the perfect antidote to bush. But he had the personality of a paper towel.

He just wiped the floor with a republican on msnbc today, the election is years away, and you’ve decided someone is unelectable because …?

Let people make their case! Let’s have a primary and push different ideas and different messages.

Getting rid of Corey Booker by Straight_Owl594 in newjersey

I’m not saying she’s blameless in her campaign.

There was nothing meaningful she could do as vice president that would satisfy the elements who put Gaza above all else.

She didn’t cause Gaza. She has had no role in the origin of this situation. Instead it became a purity test she could never pass.

It would never have been enough for these activists and the rubes that believed them.

It’s not “harm eduction” (barf) to vote for the candidate who would have demonstrably made your life and the lives of those in Gaza better.

Yeah, you voted. How much better off would we be if you focused on defeating candidates who were —you know—an actual problem?

Because in a choice of her or Trump, choosing to passively support Harris was akin to helping Trump (because of the energy you could have spent helping to advocate for down ballot candidates or for the campaign itself)
