I hope they get destroyed because I am tired of replying "gently caress you I hope you fall in a vat of acid and become part of batman's rogues gallery" to every fundraiser text

I've gotten 16 election texts in the last 48 hours, most of them from states I do not live in.

Got one about Tulsi Gabbard campaigning for Blake Masters in Arizona... not sure how I got on that list, unless all those orgs just sell phone numbers to each other?

I mean I try not to care about those things because I know that precisely gently caress-all will ever be done about them besides more hugs and kisses for cops and more money for rich people.

I love that the interviewer is lobbing such a friendly softball to Nancy there and she's still defensive. She was asked "you've done so much great stuff in the past 2 years, but voters aren't giving you credit for it. How will you show voters how amazing you are?"
That's what Nancy chose to disbelieve, not that inflation is real, or the material conditions are getting worse for the average American, just "How will you make people like you as much as they should?"
She even trotted out what should have been a pretty alarming stat. Only 80% of polled voters who say their biggest voting issue is protecting access to abortion are in the tank for dems.

Of course she's crowing about 80% is a big number, as if that other 20% staying home isn't gonna lose dems seats.

Same. I'm not in Wisconsin, either, but I just got this insane poo poo:

quote:

Hi Realname! Inflation hurts. Yet Trump Republicans do nothing, while Democrats passed a law creating millions of jobs! *Register to vote* for progress - Mandela Barnes & Gov. Tony Evers! ft6.us/WIreg (Deadline: 10/19! Or register/vote in person at your municipal clerk 10/25-11/4 or polls on Election Day 11/8.)

For folks who don't follow econ poo poo, Biden's pick to lead the Fed has hammered repeatedly on his bullshit theory that the only way to get inflation to go down is to jack up interest rates to force a recession to get businesses to eliminate a bunch of jobs to force unemployment to go way up (he explicitly says that labor has too much bargaining power, which must be weakened in order to drive wages down). But, no, let's talk about how much inflation sucks and then immediately start crowing about how the Dems have supposedly been creating a bunch of jobs.

They can't even keep their gaslighting straight for two loving sentences right after one another. This party is beyond incompetent.

Oregon is looking dangerous for the Dems. I thought for sure they’d go for a 5-2 gerrymander and shore up their weaker districts, but they went for a real aggressive 6-1 lmao now there’s a chance Oregon’s congressional delegation in 2023 could be 3 Ds/4 Rs

This in addition to a very real possibility of a Republican governor

That would be outright embarrassing for them in my opinion

Dems would adore a republican governor and are actively working to secure a 3D/4R congressional delegation split.

How can any of this be embarrassing for them if not only is this a situation they have worked hard to create, but that any potential "losses" would provide yet more ammunition in the fight against the non-right wing aspects of the democratic party?

THE POSSESSION OF WEALTH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A SIGN OF POOR VIRTUE. AS SUCH:
1 NEVER TRUST ANY RICH PERSON.
2 NEVER HIRE ANY RICH PERSON.
BY RULE 1, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PRESUME THAT ALL DEGREES AND CREDENTIALS HELD BY A WEALTHY PERSON ARE FRAUDULENT. THIS JUSTIFIES RULE 2--RULE 1 NEEDS NO JUSTIFIC



didn't they say the same thing about Roe V Wade and when it happened :effort:

That's exactly what dems want tho
"gee we absolutely would have done good thing, but the mean SC said no. Give us a 2/3 super majority and the WH indefinitely and we'll see if we can get better justices as they die off"

also lol I got a mailer for a dude who ran for state senate for a few years on stuff like m4a. He's now running for federal office with quotes from republicans about how cool he is

I'm gonna start political consulting and charge campaigns 250k a pop for the sage advice "Stop saying the other team should like you, jackass. You will never win their vote."

Basically confirms the anger over Roe being overturned has either passed or is less than anger over everything else in life getting more expensive

Or that people see the Dems won't do poo poo about it even if they get the magic number they say they want, which lol this one's completely true. Still shocked it faded as quick as the anger over Sandy Hook (2-3 whole months)
