The idea that some of the whitest states in the nation (Washington, Oregon, Vermont) are solidly Democratic because of illegal immigrants or immigrants in general is objectively false and beyond absurd.

Should they have cared about all this before now? Yes.

Did you reach the right position before them? Sure, here's a gold star.

Do we need their numbers to make this work? Yes. Please stop acting like the hipster who knew about this band before anyone else. We actually do need the normies.

Cortez Masto, Fetterman, Gallego, Hassan, Kelly, Ossoff, Peters, Warnock, Rosen, Shaheen, Slotkin, Warner.

Pretty much the usual suspects. Warnock is probably the most disappointing to me. What the hell was he doing?

she was good at whipping votes, but for what? she slowed every investigation, actively campaigned against accountability, and very publicly believed that the way to beat Trump was to avoid backlash caused by direct opposition and instead focus on kitchen-table issues to win elections

And let Ross have his due process! Maybe he can explain why he called her a fucking bitch and let a jury decide if he’s an innocent public servant or a sick fuck who should never walk free again.

Of course, Dems ran scared after 2024 in ways that the GOP didn't in 2021. Dems should embrace the reality that Trump is fundamentally unpopular.

In many ways, MAGA is making the same error that Biden/Dems made in 2020. Biden/Dems believed voters had personally rejected Trump but the victory was mostly about the tanked economy, etc. Trump/MAGA believe voters personally rejected liberalism but the victory was mostly abut the tanked economy.

yes, they have a vast propaganda network at their disposal

no, the propaganda they are creating is not very effective at convincing anyone who isn’t already part of their bubble, because they think they’ve already won - it’s just self-congratulatory garbage aimed at their most extreme members
