I would laugh, but I remember what Saxby Chambliss did to Max Cleland in the GA Senate race--a man who lost both his legs and an arm diving on a grenade to save his squadmates. I would not put it past Trump to turn Tammy Duckworth into a military-hating coward.

All she needs to do in response is wave her prosthetics at the cameras and say "How do you think I got these, you orange motherfucker?"

the whole Tea Party movement may have started off as astroturfy as a lovely football field but it turns out people don't care, long as the astroturf is broadly aligned with what they want

the Dems should totally learn that lesson

a big city mayor would still have way more loving experience than our President-Elect has so I don't see much to your objection

Berlusconi ran for Prime Minister in a similar (arguably worse) situation and he ended up winning three elections. Trump could easily win two if he is well liked by his base.

to win another election Trump will have to make it through the next four years without going completely mad

given his behavior so far, I'm not sure he can even manage that

the problem is that everything often doesn't have the same answer, but Republicans love to frame it as "if you just do the things we want everything will be better" even though that has never ever happened every singe time they've taken power.

gonna be a pedant and point out that this has only really been true since the 1980s

2016 Dem autopsy synopsis: gently caress 'em. We didn't want their votes anyway.

Given that Pelosi is one of those Dems that depends on fundraisers on the coast for her political life, this is probably more a reaction to that swipe at her voters than anything else.

Or, y'know, we're hosed.

Nancy Pelosi has the safest seat of safe seats...has she ever had a credible primary challenge? She certainly has never had one from a republican. She gives money she raises to democrats in tougher elections, god knows she doesn't need it.

I think she's just tone deaf. The best thing you can do is email your democratic congressman, if you have one, and bitch them out to vote for Tim Ryan tomorow. Of course it's a secret vote so you're still hosed.

My point is that Pelosi is probably tone deaf but still what Ryan said was an obvious swipe at the rich urban Dem voters that make her safe seat so drat safe.

The gently caress is a fish fry?

It's a midwestern community thing where they fry up a lot of fish and chips and everyone eats together. The fact you, a Hillaryman, don't even have a passing acquaintance with a major cultural thing in the Midwest/Rust Belt really says a lot.
