No, it’s not, anti abortion supporters of trump have gotten nothing from him in this admin and still vote for him

I think you missed the point of what he said. I agree we shouldn’t be mocking people, but we also shouldn’t be bending over backwards to get the vote of someone who was gonna vote for us anyway. Democracy means no one gets everything they want

anyone who votes R

Do you think everyone in the republican coalition agrees with what the GOP does?

Thank you

goes back to your "keeping the groups in the veal pen" article you wrote a couple of weeks ago

He must have mixed it up with d-day in his history lesson /s

This image is clearly photoshopped, Ryan. This never happened.

His age + negative polarization due to the media / covid

This website is tankie heaven so…

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Whatever golden needs to do to hold his seat, I’m supportive of

Would be surprised if Durbin runs again tbh. Jared Golden I am willing to give a pass because his district composition is very protectionist and in terms democrats in republican leaning districts, he’s a very valuable vote to have

Hmm ok. We will agree to disagree on the “Matt ignoring facts” part - I think in the context of his piece what he wrote makes sense

Why is our vice chair trying to primary incumbents? I’m all for getting older dems to step down but that’s already happening voluntarily (shaheen, peters, smith, etc)

Not sure how your first sentence (which I obviously agree with) leads to the second. I don’t think he’s using him as a showcase. I do agree with @jamellebouie.net that Matt is underplaying the degree of racial discrimination that is happening under the auspices of “DEI”…

He didn’t say that Donald trump was not a racist though…in fact he said he understands why people feel that way. I’m not sure there’s any dissonance here - just pointing out that over a long period of time the bar for “being racist” has changed (which is good)

Just block and ignore. These people are deranged

Good one

no, just a normal, sane human.

is there a more up to date estimate available? a lot has changed in ten years (COVID, WFH, etc)

No idea what this means, but I doubt this conversation is worth my time. Have a good day

Yep, you got me!

So I guess it’s normal to wish someone got slapped in the head because you don’t understand sarcasm?

No, he was making a joke because the person he replied to said “if I never have to hear or read your name again it will be happy day”.

If you learn to understand sarcasm I’m happy to “cape” for whoever. Instead of jumping down the throat of a center left writer who very obviously doesn’t support RFK
