Yeah Bernie's biggest personal priority coming into the 2020 primaries was definitely "don't let people blame you for trump winning again, even if it means losing". And, shockingly, coming in with a loser's mentality ultimately led to a loss.

Scuttlebutt was that hillary was blackout drunk and couldn’t do a speech, which I totally believe. She’s known for being able to knock a few back, but that’s way too humanizing so the campaign never touched on it at all

Yeah as long as the Biden camps can be dressed up even slightly, "well it was worse under Trump and any improvement matters" will be the common line among anyone who really doesn't like to let their thoughts linger on the gross poo poo the party does.

SKULL.GIF posted:is cuomo being removed/convicted yet for being a sex harasser? It's part of her pattern. Over the last year she has altered to: -Changing her wording to "access" to healthcare -Being firmly against forcing the vote or using any of the small power she has to push against the establishment Democrats that are very obviously against M4A weakening the idea that it is possible -Talking about the "reality" that she hopes to have it in 30 years or whatever which may as well be effectively never -now talking up COBRA and other various small potatoes as wins It's a very strong series of surrenders while not pushing forward for the actual policy that has been mostly been abandoned. This isn't a one off. Eggplant Squire has issued a correction as of 19:16 on Mar 13, 2021 |

yeah AOC saying that she hopes to get M4A in the next 30 years was imo the perfect distillation of her transformation into a congresscritter. the not so subtle assumption that she'll still be sitting in the House doing the Good Work for 30 years, yet strangely has gotten nothing she campaigned for done in that time period is exactly how members of congress think.

If you actually care about policy AOC is worse than an establishment Democrat at this point since her entire role now is to take the anger and frustration of people under 40 and channel that back into the party. She's offering the false hope she is working towards solutions instead of the reality that she is just explaining why the stuff she was outraged about half a year ago is cool now and why her constant losses in the face of both Republicans and Conservative Democrats are actually victory wine.

All you need to know about aoc is that she was telling everyone who was mad that she wasn't doing anything that she was building up her political capital to make change. Then she was rewarded for not making waves and voting pelosi by getting kicked off all the committees and now she's very excited about access to COBRA for 6 months.

The minute Biden won immigration policy became a problem too complex for any one administration to solve, and sometimes putting kids in concentration camps for weeks a time is just necessary. Plus the camps aren't even that bad now, you get a deluxe conex box with bars on the windows to keep the kids extra safe

Given that the camps are already being expanded and filled beyond the prior covid-based limits, it's probably more like "it would have been worse under a hypothetical second Trump term," which is the perfect defence because as a counterfactual it can be as bad as you can imagine.

Under Trump 2 they would have been turned into sausage, so anything short of literal Soylent Green is acceptable and any criticism is just supporting Trump

I'm holding out a shred of hope that the next two years in the governing party and things actively getting worse will radicalize Aoc. but, it's not looking great. aoc you are on the clock.

One largely unnoticed thing: the Supreme Court told idiot Steven Donziger to get hosed. No, the courts of the US won't help you enforce a 9 billion dollar fraud attempt To be more specific, Donziger had expert evidence and court decisions ghost written, and bribed a judge and several politicians to get the ruling he wanted. It all unravelled when he lost a RICO lawsuit in a US court over the case, and ever since then has been bouncing between various nations like a pinball, trying to hang the judgement on Chevron (he's barred from doing so in US courts). Speaking of which, I wonder if Steven Donziger is still running around trying to hang that $9.5 billion judgement on Chevron. Most of the courts in the western hemisphere have told him to gently caress off at this point (this is literally everything ever said about him there, in case your wondering what the succ discourse is about this case)
