The thing about the US is that literal fucking Nazism is never going to play well and the Fuentes-Carlson faction wants to put on the snazzy armband and the toothbrush mustache and everything, and force every Republican to do the same.

This is very, very dangerous. It's also gonna be bad for them.

it's really amazing how utterly incompetent they are.

they believe their own hype; they think they're overwhelmingly popular everywhere. even places where they are deliberately terrorizing residents.

maybe this is the direction they are headed, we will see, but โ€œthe gistโ€, as axios puts it, is in absolutely no way supported by the comments attributed to any democrat in this piece

I do think older Democrats should make way for younger ones in general, but I think Ed Markey doesn't need to retire to make room for Seth Fucking Moulton.

Curtis Sliwa also appears on the ballot twice in the top row -- as the Republican Party nominee and again as the nominee for the "Protect Animals" party -- but off course this genius who promotes AI investments didn't notice that.

Louisiana โ€” the red state that Mike Johnson nominally represents โ€” has the second highest percentage of residents enrolled in SNAP in the nation.

Theyโ€™re pushing this fantasy about these being โ€œDemocrat programsโ€ used only in blue states but thatโ€™s a PR fantasy divorced from reality.

LRP: Even if shutting off (half of) SNAP benefits breaks through to Americans and does massive damage to Trump's support, you're not going to see a lot of movement in the poll averages over the next few days just because of the timings of things.

The over/under for Trump's approval Friday is 39%

right, I suspect a lot of people on here are subjected to a whole lot of opinions they wildly disagree with when they *arenโ€™t* using the Internet.

I love how like 5% of Americans went "Well, I give Trump a chance I guess" when he took office and had soured on him by day 3.

it's a good idea if you see somebody say, "X" with no link to google and see if you can find a mainstream source covering it.

if not you probably shouldn't amplify it. 1

this was a huge problem with the Joe Manchin Experience

yes, absolutely, having a Dem - even a shitty one - from ruby red West Virginia let Dems do a ton they could not have otherwise done

but the national party took a lot of damage from his constant attacks

if I was a 'moderate' I would be shitting my pants at Obama openly aligning himself with Mamdani, that automatically makes Mamdani the moderate position

Obama signaling that he wants to boost Mamdani and work with him long term is a big signal to people in the party who have been praying Mamdani's go away.

My more depressing theory is that heโ€™s comfortable making a face turn because he likely correctly thinks that he won: many of his views are now firmly in the mainstream so groypher excesses can be safely called out and reigned in.

Perhaps the most impressive thing about him is he has never risen to the bait on this, not once. His answer is always some form of, โ€œI want to be Mayor of New York.โ€

People are talking about how Bari Weiss is fucking up by allowing this to air but I think that Trump will think itโ€™s good that itโ€™s on the air because he thinks those images are a positive. The mad doesnโ€™t have good political instincts on this!

I think Schumer knows that AOC is getting his seat in 2028 and is just being petulant.
