Oh, fuck off with this bullshit. Anyone politically conscious enough to call themselves a leftist is overwhelmingly more likely to cast a Biden vote than pretty much any other group you could carve out.

The left tells centrist morons how to appeal to average Americans. Centrist morons ignore the left. Average Americans stay home on election day. Centrist morons assume it's because they're leftists since the leftists warned them .

It's bad enough the left has to keep voting for establishment goons. It's intolerable that we are the first place they look for a scapegoat when they fall on their fat asses. Hillary lost because of Hillary, and that's on the Democratic establishment and primary voters who nominated an arrogant hag.

Ways like announcing his support of the union and intention to still go despite the canceled speech? Yeah, he did that. Harris could go, sure, but Biden is going.

I never said his security is "too difficult". I just takes time to work out the details and plan where he will go, how long he will be there, and how he will be protected. There is no need for him to announce specifics at right this fucking second anyways. Again, Biden is the only President who has ever walked a picket line with workers.

I seriously don't think you can be as dumb as you pretend. Another agenda is at play.

Michele Obama is the only one consistently beating Trump in polls. Not that I want Obama v2, but that's where it stands currently.

Done properly, a replacement would get a big bump with the nomination, but that's not much to count on.

Jon Stewart would probably wipe the floor with Trump if anyone can figure out how to draft him.

I was explaining why Bernie moved on. I'd love to move on but it seems like every few months Hillary pops up in the media with another sneer.

Anyways, given where all the establishment fuckery of the past 50 years has led us at this particular moment, I feel like a little anger is justified, no?

Not everyone was a D, at least not the voters. There was a massive push to reregister a lot of Republicans and Independents as Democrats.

Sarah Palin was really a trend setter for congesional Republican women.

There would have to be some kind of currently unforseen breakthroughs before something like that would be even remotely possible. In all likelihood, quantum computing would stay in specialized data centers. For the problems quantum would solve, there is really no advantage to having it local anyways.

Biden deserves a lot of credit if he can get this implemented. Credit where credit is due, but it doesn't clear the ledger by a long shot.

I even support his overall strategy of maintaining good relations with Israel while pushing them in the right direction, but he has been far to tolerant of intolerable acts, and far too willing to lie and obfuscate to hide Israel's crimes.

They had almost zero power. That is no longer true, and you have no idea what you are talking about. Furthermore, I don't think you even care.

AOC has had this position from the start. I'm getting so sick of edgy cynicism. If you really gave a shit then you would be paying more attention instead of seeking it.

It's not. In US politics, liberals will often try to paint themselves as progressives, but the policies they hold and the funding for their campaigns tell a very different story.

The banner carrier for the progressive movement in the US is clearly Bernie Sanders, and he doesn't pull this shit. Neither does AOC, or the rest of the "squad". Nobody in progressive media does either.

On the Republican side, it's even more obvious. Republicans have been the driving force behind the anti-BDS movement. Biden might be splitting hairs in his mixed messaging on Israel, but not the Republicans. Republicans are solidly behind Israel in their genocide of Gaza.

Of all the possible political ideologies you could single out for this in America, "progressives" would be the least accurate.

Great job they did keeping weapons out. Now combine this with all the intelligence they ignored that an attack was coming and try to take it seriously.
