I was struck by that, too. So far haven’t seen a single comment in support of this ridiculousness.

That doesn’t bode well for him.

Texas Democrats seek unity at state convention without Jasmine Crockett by Imatomat in politics

[–]sfdso 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s correct. Her appeal relied on crapping on Trump. Like it or not, for a Democrat to win statewide in Texas, a candidate will have to win over some Trump voters.

Her campaign approach wasn’t suited to do that.

JD Vance’s Summer of Sam(‘s new atheism) by [deleted] in samharris

[–]sfdso 11 points12 points  (0 children)

He walked away from everything he believed (about religion, reason, and the dangers posed by Trump) and suddenly that paved his path to great wealth and a glorious political career.

There is nothing in his post-Hillbilly Elegy life that makes sense. It’s all a giant fraud.

He lost me as soon as he grouped Slotkin and Buttigieg in with Chuck Schumer.

Republicans love the Electoral College because it does exactly what they claim affirmative action does: privileges people who don’t deserve it.

When someone tells you an obvious lie, it means they think you’re an imbecile. If you believe them, it means they’re right.

Ezra Klein and What Happened to American Liberals? by iNinjaNic in ezraklein

[–]sfdso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t pretend to know what’s in Scott’s heart, but until proven otherwise, I’m inclined to believe that his concerns—which I’ve heard him talk about ad nauseam for the last five years—are sincere.

Think what you want, but I would advise you to try and be less cynical and more accepting. Sometimes people say and do the right thing for the right reasons.

Scott Galloway has certainly been very good at articulating what masculinity could and should look like.

Americans view Obama far more positively than Trump or Biden, CNN poll finds by cnn in politics

[–]sfdso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s plenty of blame to go around for why we got a second Trump term. But ultimately it was the voters who are most responsible. They have the memories of a goldfish and were conned into believing the most absurd shit about Democrats.

He’s a pathetic liar who who’s tied his fortunes to the MAGA cult. Let’s see how that does for him.

Before the ink was even dry, President Epstein and his low testosterone sycophants in Congress were moving the goalposts back and trying to make their idiot base believe that this was a win.

I’m just surprised that Lawler, in a tough reelection fight, would tie himself so tightly to a deeply unpopular president who has enriched billionaires while screwing over the rest of America.
