I will donate to anyone that primaries a democrat that caves in this fight.

We just did. Apparently Leader No-Spine didn’t get the message. So we’ll send him another one come primary season.

Please don’t hold your breath. I love seeing you on things too much for that.

This is also my trajectory. 1973 baby here, just happily drifting further and further left

Thank you, Leader Schumer, for showing yet again that you utterly lack the intestinal fortitude to actually stand up for your constituents and actually get something done. Hope you’re ready for primaries because your billionaire donors won’t mean shit when we find someone who actually fights for us

Yup. That’s why we’re just going to help them deport all the brown people to a deep hole, institute mandatory credit checks for ER visits, and outlaw being gay or trans.

I’m sure everyone who’s about to have their insurance rates double will find comfort in “elections have consequences”, you ghoul

No no no! You don’t understand! I’ve worked with him for YEARS! I just didn’t endorse him and actively worked against getting him elected, but now that he’s won, I’m really happy! Really! Hap..py.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but:

A vote is not a love letter for the perfect candidate. A vote is a chess move to win a world you want to live in.

The thing that I’ve noticed about the deep seated conservatives I’ve worked with in my time in Texas is that they have a deep love and loyalty for their families and pets and their chosen circle. Anyone else has to prove their worth to “deserve” love, care, or support.

They think that the only reason we care is because it’s a gotcha against their team, because that’s the only reason *they* care

The idea that it’s a moral injustice that disgusts us and cries out for remedy regardless of the perpetrator simply doesn’t occur to them

Right energy, deeply questionable execution.

As a Texas resident, this would be amazing. Base it on San Antonio/Austin, Dallas, Houston, and El Paso. I think you’d see some changes in a HURRY.
