anyone think ryan is "retiring" to potentially challenge trump?

i think he's just "retiring" to go get paid/not have to fight a damaging primary, but i thought that was an interesting thought

Nah, he's retiring so that he can be rehabilitated by decorum type democrats and avoid being tainted by the 2018 democratic wave. He will make serious bank at some lobbying firm and then manage to run for senate as a really serious wonk in a few years.

Dccc could also be smart enough to spot coat tails large enough to provide them progressive cred by association.

Not that their support isn't suspect as gently caress, but when bad Dems line up behind someone who, at the very least, says things bad dems would rather commit seppku than advocate...

I mean, I don't get douche chills looking at a statement from Bryce like I do Harris, Booker, Biden, or McCaskill.

Bad Dems don't have to block every progressive, just enough so it doesn't interfere with them collaborating with Republicans .

I'd take anybody's money and tell them to gently caress off, that's where I differ with Bernie. I understand though, that almost nobody will tell them to gently caress off so he's smart to make it trendy not to take corporate cash at all.

New York City, NY – April 11, 2018 – Acreage Holdings (“Acreage”) (https://www.acreageholdings.com), one of the nation’s largest, multi-state actively-managed cannabis corporations, announced the appointments of former Speaker of the United States House of Representatives John Boehner and former Governor of the State of Massachusetts Bill Weld to its Board of Advisors.

I think that's the real kicker on what makes the DCCC backing some poo poo lib unlikely. They are getting a cut paid to their consultants and that's ultimately what they care about. It would take some Ossof level carpetbagger entering the race for them to start torpedoing his campaign.

He's way too unpopular with the GOP base to primary Trump or really anyone. He gone.

Yeah there’s nothing stopping him from making a similar deal to what Clinton made with the DNC to fund them in exchange for access. Aside from being a coward.

They don't even actively want to block progressives, as that would implicate a political position or some sort of principle. Their only imperative is to seek donations, always. The $ must flow. If a progressive turns out to be a strong fundraiser they will latch on like barnacles.

If I were a billionaire like zucc, I would have a machine custom fitted to every contour of my junk and plugged straight onto my prostate that would just allow me to bust until the moment of my death. I don't see why he wouldn't do this at every moment possible, to exist in a continuous state of meticulously engineered sexual bliss.
