I'm just glad Ellison's gonna have a useful job in the Democratic Party. Because he's staying in Congress.

no, i don't give a gently caress about the context of 'but would that solve racism' -- her job was to deliver a clear, positive message that resonated with the people and she fuckin' failed at that. we don't put up with trump supporters with their "what he meant to say" bullshit, so why do we give that kind of clumsy mealymouthing a break from dread abuela?
