In a functioning society, anyone even suggesting this would be removed from office or denied the ability to run for office at best, or preferably in fucking prison
Most of those people don't give a shit about wars halfway across the world, and holding them up from their three o'clock certainly isn't incentivizing the cause. And what of emergency services? I hope they all get punished to the fullest extent of the law.
The major cites are blue but we have several hundreds of counties, that are really small towns some so small, less than a hundred people living there
and since the electoral college is by county it why we always lose
Ok, withdraw all funding from the state.
Seymour would have been great if you could summon Anima with him. Otherwise the only thing good about him is a pretty cool Overdrive that literally no one ever sees because the boss is already dead by the time you can use it..
Seems like they grow really fast
And you think the Republican voters who turned out were Katie Porter voters who got flipped to conservative? Get real. While I agree it's kinda dirty, that's what politics is, and it's no different from when Dems donated money to Todd Akin to help him win his primary to be an easier opponent in November, which was a celebrated tactic at the time.
Katie could've done a better job turning out this supposed "progressive vote" that seems to have trouble proving itself to exist, and it wouldn't have mattered. Him propping up a R should've been amazing campaign fodder for her to drive the vote, too.
Schiff wanted the R in 2nd place so he'd have an easy general election, it didn't help him win the primary. If anything, as the most moderate of the 3 Dems, he sacrificed some of his own potential votes now b/c he figured he had a better chance w/ Lee splitting the vote now than 1 v 1 w/ Katie later. I don't know how anyone can think it helped him in the primary, it was to push his toughest rival out of 2nd place.
With the benefit of hindsight, it looks like Schiff didn't even need to worry about Porter, he had such a wide lead over her in the 4-way, it was probably in the bag for a 1 v 1 considering the vast majority of the R votes would either not vote at all or vote for him over her.
Both of them running for the seat was always a colossal fuck up, I didn't know the ramifications. She should've kept holding her House seat that to her credit she guarded quite well in a very tough district. I guess now the best thing for her to do is to campaign for her Dem replacement hopeful and then look for a new spot to run next time, like governor or something.
Youre right, why would you try to not troll when that clearly goes against your mission
Nah he was spot on there. People willfully misrepresenting slogans to their least charitable meaning.
Plenty you could do about that actually
Schiff is easily going to win the seat; it wouldve been much more competitive if it was Schiff vs Porter. And that doesnt take away from the fact that everyone can tell youre posting in bad faith to elicit reactions rather than to have any worthwhile discussions.
Jfc how much clearer could you make it that youre just trolling
Do you think Schiff has a chance of losing?
Proving my point
Of course you do, thats your schtick. Reality isnt important when youre dedicated.
Yeah he makes it real obvious hes not making honest posts
Yeah? Is that what happened? Or did they just also like someone else more?
The game is specifically rigged against progressives and leftists and for people who are more likely to play ball with the people doing the rigging though. A post like this aggressively misses the point. The game itself is the problem because of how its structured and what its meant to do.
It's hard to be a great campaigner when you running at all is presented as anywhere from impudent to traitorous and the media and party apparatus immediately lines up behind your safe opponent. This is not to excuse progressives who genuinely do a bad job as often happens, but lets be real about what's happening here.
Fuck Adam Schiff
Good thing Republicans are doubling down on Kari Lake
Sinema has a replacement in the senate while Coal Joe Manchin is a lost seat
no tears should be shed for either sellout
The real reason is as simple as shes not gonna win re-election
Just another record breaking veto for Hobbs.
I'd be surprised if they manage to hit 30%.
Mitch was very effective at maximizing Republicanss chances of achieving their goals. This will hurt the GOP.
Also, not going to lie, Im not really comfortable how casual the internet is with angrily calling people zionists left and right.
They'll attack you regardless unless you meet their ideology exactly
To make it worse is that they dont seem to understand that some people want their views to be private.
