People who make it harder for me to make it with or without a D next to their name aren't on my side.

Why is it vote blue no matter who until progressive wins a primary and then it's okay for Jeffries and Schumer to not support? Seems like what y'all really mean is vote conservative

The health insurance regulation that passes for healthcare in the country was taken from the Republicans by Dems and has been their signature piece of legislation ever since. We have that because of Dems.

I can't believe how many people who are against trump seem to be A-ok when Dems do nothing to stop trump.

The biggest issue wasn't dems voting for trump but Dems staying home. Funny enough, many of the areas with low turnout were communities of color in Mich and PA.
I'm really struggling to understand why you're upset: when we attack Dems for not fighting back you attack us for not supporting Dems

And you wanna talk about sabotaging my side...it's always vote blue no matter who until the who is a progress then it is the Minority leader of the Senate doesn't have to publicly endorse the Democrat mayor of NY. It's vote blue until it's time to hold the rich accountable.

Here's the deal: if you disagree with me, great. If you think my position would lead to X say it and present evidence but don't say I believe X. You're over here throwing bombs at progressives while we are the only ones standing up to trump. Your beloved right-wing Dems cave every chance they get

Ladies and gentlemen, I present a straw man.

I will stop attacking Dems when they stop voting to comdemn the "evils" of socialism. A majority of Dems voted not impeach. What do Dems stand for? It's not healthcare or taxes on the rich? Look at my home state Wa. Our Dem gov has repeatedly blocked a wealth tax while raising regressive taxes.

As someone who supports healthcare for all, trans rights, and a limit to the wealth a single person can accumulate, I don't ever see myself voting for Gavin Newsom. But I am having fun watching the first class troll job.

And for the love of god, we know there aren't gonna be any big signings this year, next year, or for the foreseeable future. Our next DP is already on the roster, the money from this year's tournaments is missing, and the chance to make some money with Obed has been squandered.

It's a fine signing. I do feel some kind of way about this owner and the trajectory of the roster. We are the fifth best roster now and in 2-3 years, with our strategy, will be the 8th best roster and the only Sounders news source will still be dropping articles calling fans stupid.

It has to do with the way the front office cooks...with the cheapest ingredients they can find.

I'm talking about the club taking a victory lap after bringing a 500 min player to backup our young CM they can't move, asking if they are aware of the fan perception, and answered my question using CW's latest press conference where he came off as out of touch and combative as an example.

Lot of fanfare from the club. Is the front office and PR department aware of the gap between the way the FO operates and fan aspirations? I think they are and I think that is why CW is always so damn whiny in front of the camera.

Him being so talented is the problem. He doesn't want to be a Sounder but he won't let us move him either.

Let's be honest the most likely outcome is he walks on a free and the front office takes a victory lap for their "genius". CW has already laid the ground work. Can't buy top players....can't sell top players.

Spot on. I would follow up with: Obama's pivot to the center followed by Hillary being chosen by the DNC (who is to the right of Obama) did a lot to stymie the young progressive energy that propelled Obama to the Whitehouse. Also, the DNC choosing Biden further set back the energy of the Dem party.

There wouldnt be a need to fix the ACA if we had healthcare instead of insurance regulations. Half measures are the Hallmark of the Dems and why they are so unpopular

How confident are you that when a Dem wins the white house they will do that? I'm assuming the need for this post means there is some doubt that a Dem presidency would result in a major course correction. I know I am.

Tell that to the 20 million Americans whose insurance cost is increasing by thousands of dollars. We settled and still got nothing.
