I'm actually having a hard time trying to figure out what he's even getting at in that tirade; it doesn't sound good. (I can't bear to listen to him live anymore, the most I can do is these transcripts.) edit: tax

Harton posted:Yeah I’m starting to come around on this, as long as he picks a young progressive VP it could work really well. He could boost that person to the national stage also. Maybe Buttigig? It’s less than 2 years at this point and people are starting to declare. Everyone brings out the “Obama was unknown” but I think it’s a bit silly to have hope these days in general. Even sillier to think we have another Obama waiting in the wings for just the right moment to break out onto the scene. We really don't need two straight white dudes on a ticket.

Solaris 2.0 posted:I think the moment that pissed me off the most during the 2016 Campaign (and hoy boy were there ALOT of moments) was the infamous Matt Lauer interview of both Clinton and Trump. That this not only happened, but that it was a guy who within a year would be revealed as a fellow sex pest with a secret, automatically closing door in his office like he's loving Quagmire who was firing her questions about HER EMAILS, well that's just peak Trump Era to me.

heyitsamanda posted:At one point towards the end of her campaign/after the election didn’t it come out that she even ignored Bill’s advice about how to regard/campaign in the Midwest states? I feel like someone posted an article on that in the old Trump thread that was pretty interesting. So it turns out that she was supposed to campaign in the north, and then she ended up canceling that whole week in the wake of the Pulse shooting. Which, there it is, isn’t it? She never went back, stuck to the schedule, and took Robby Mook’s bad advice. 2016 is the final, terrible indictment about any other tactic but Total War.

BarbarianElephant posted:Ha, they would have been. And they'd never have admitted it. They wouldn't have got their tax cut or Supreme Court dominance, but they'd have got to play their favorite game of being the Brave Patriots against Liberal Tyranny for another 4 years. By October 2016 the Republican party had written off Trump and was fully on plan to just control the Senate and Congress for two years, blocking everything Clinton would try to do while running endless investigations. Then in 2018 gain super-majorities in both houses, impeach Clinton for Her Emails, and then crush Tim Kaine in 2020. Of course then Trump won.

One of many reasons why AOC (and Pressly, Tlaib, etc) is one of the best things to happen in Congress in a while. Looking at it from the perspective of 2019, that could have also been a microcosm of how Lauer views women. They're not worthy of his respect, so he hammers them and interrupts when they try to defend themselves, but a known predator like Trump gets a pass.

We got over a hundred volunteers for canvassing the weekend after Christmas. Enthusiasm is real and good in VA. 2019 could see all chambers flipped in VA Gov. Hit me or Fancy up if you want to get in the trenches  We already got a DMV Goon Squad and welcome any newcomers to bash the fash at the ballot boxes.

RBA Starblade posted:I live in VA, thank you for helping crush the nazi candidate VA is solid blue for the foreseeable future thanks in no small part of breathless efforts by posters such as Friendbot and Yourboyfancy and others. Virginia, HOME of the old confederacy, is now solid blue. Think about how impossible that seemed during the Bush years? I agree with the sentiment that the "nothing matters" goons can gently caress right off. They made a difference.

We are so loving close to getting the ERA out of committee if we can flip 2 seats in the House of Delegates. So many people everywhere have woken up and are putting in the work. A lot of goons too like KM scrabbling over barricades in Michigan and people getting involved in being election officials in the Midwest. Good things are coming. Lets ride the wave!

I still think even though we are in a poo poo show, the silver lining is the Democrats have retaken the House and are on track to take back the Presidency and even the Senate in 2020, and Trump has turned many voters away from the GOP forever by pulling the mask off We would have never had that happen with Clinton

This thread is full of rugged leftist individualists who've never joined anything in their life. A significant percentage of the rest are people involved in organizations that enable their belief that orthodoxy is more important than outreach. I would personally 100% support a lying cheating scumbag who eliminated ICE or nationalized Facebook and other internet public squares. Meanwhile this thread gets mad if a Demmiecrat tells a lie because Republicans are going to get ya!
