As White House officials weigh how much to give in to his demands, rift grows between president and senator from West Virginia
It’s worth leaving a comment to let the Biden Administration know that you want the greenhouse gas reduction measures in the Inflation Reduction Act preserved
Two, actually:
Pollsters also said Hillary Clinton was going to win in a landslide, and it’s pretty hard to believe that bona fide progressives wouldn’t vote for a bona fide progressive, so I’m leaning heavily toward #2.
No, I mean Bernie Sanders. I was blasted with Sanders spam constantly on social media in 2016. No one had any excuse for not knowing who he was and what he stood for.
In the 2020 primaries, the biggest concern was making 200% sure Trump does not get a second term. The primary voters decided that the best way to do this was to elect a centrist that would appeal to the right-wing not-so-undecideds that this godforsaken country is so depressingly full of, and even that only barely worked. Maybe you disagree, and maybe you’re right and they’re wrong, but I’m sure you can understand that there was an extremely dire situation with absolutely no room for mistakes.
If you want to fix that, fill Congress with progressives and pass a Constitutional amendment mandating approval voting or something similar. And yeah, that’s on us voters, too.
I’m going to need some details on this before I can respond meaningfully.
No, that’s another commonly believed distortion of reality. Pollsters concluded that there was a high probability that she would win the popular vote, which she did.
That the polls were about the EC and that they mentioned anything about the size of victory is gross misunderstanding at best and much more likely a convenient way to deliberately sow doubt about data that proves leftist policy positions much more popular than your own, whether you’re a Republican or Republican Lite like the Dem leadership.
Which means that bona-fide progressives, especially young voters, were discouraged by the constant fawning of the media constantly declaring someone who was NEVER a bona-fide progressive the inevitable winner and didn’t risk their job or jump through a ton of out of state voting hoops (in the case of college students) to vote against someone that both the commentators and the referees had already all but declared the winner.
DID vote for both Hillary and Biden in the general at MUCH higher rates than Hillary’s followers did in 08, though.
…and the rest of what you said was also as if it was taken directly from the notes of Neera Tanden, so I’m just gonna stop wasting my breath now. Have the day you deserve.
