also reminder they saw ossoff do worse than hillary after enormous amounts of money was dumped into that race, meanwhile nobodies with no extra cash did 15-20 points better than hillary

they saw that and doubled down

they literally cannot see the world any other way

If were extremly lucky they'll focus their meddling on like 3 lovely candidates somewhere so a bunch of good canidates can run unseen and unnoticed by the much more competent RCCC

BRYCE!

The best hope for the DCCC ironically is it's lovely limp nature prevents it from affecting primaries that much :shrug:

Progressive candidates are working their rear end off around the country. They are our only hope at this point p much

honestly I think it's becoming more and more likely that the Democrats absorb disaffected "moderate" Republicans and shift even further towards the right, and the lefty faction of the Democrats break off to form a new party

except these people do not exist in amounts to remain viable or will just vote republican

e: and it'd never work because they'd have to drop some social issues to attract those people at which point the whole thing just collapses

The most hilarious stupidity in our presidential election rules is that if it goes to the House, each state gets one vote. Greg Gianforte alone has the same voting power as the entire California delegation.

i'm usually weary of the 'homophobe is secretly gay' thing but thinking you can be persuaded to be gay only makes sense if he's in the closet and assumes all straight men are attracted to each other and are only straight because they resist their sinful, filthy urges

so yeah imagine throwing an election to the house and giving grothman and gohmert a roughly 1/200th share in deciding the president

i can sort of forgive him for being a hosed up weirdo if that's the case and he's lived his whole life hating his sexuality, definitely more sympathetic then someone like pence

Seriously, Donald loving Trump is more responsive to the will of the American people than the Democrats at this point. Not one of them outside the progressive wing should still be in their seats once 2020 rolls around.

I'm honestly really really pissed. I mean this is honestly making me want to vote R from now on against these fucks. At least they are honest about destroying the country.

yeah give the right even more power, that'll teach them
