i will acknowledge that harris is extremely weak on several core progressive principles, including the abolition of the so called 'judicial' system

does anyone remember who was being floated for president in 2004-2005?

it was all irrelevant because it was the '06 election that really shifted national politics and set in gear what would be happening in '08

same stuff for '16 and '18 for '20

Well it's only the result of her votes from the past few months. And it's not like the senate is voting on progressive issues instead of fighting a cheeto idiot fucker

Also if you look at how they generate the %, they base it off matching votes with the majority of "11 hardcore progressive senators"

WI Tammy Baldwin
OH Sherrod Brown
IL Richard Durbin
MN Al Franken
NJ Cory Booker
HI Mazie Hirono
MA Ed Markey
OR Jeff Merkley
RI Jack Reed
VT Bernie Sanders
MA Elizabeth Warren


So Sanders would've lost % for voting against Iran sanctions.

that is... a pretty flawed way of doing things

and by flawed i mean "exactly as designed to make someone appear more progressive than they actually are"

bernie being the candidate of the left in 2020 suggests that either the american left wing movement is dependent on him or there's literally no other solid left-winger in a position to run, both of which call into serious question the prospect of said movement outliving him
