My response to the NYT’s “moderate to win” argument: The data shows the strategy is tapped out. Being seen as moderate by voters doesn’t boost votes, replacing every progressive with moderates would net 0 seats, and the graveyard of defeated D incumbents if full of moderates, not progressives.

The New York Times Argues “Moving to the Center Is the Way to Win.” But the Data Shows the Strategy Is Tapped Out.

Democrats already run moderates in nearly every swing district. It's not enough. A data-driven response to the case for centrism as a core electoral strategy.

Thank you Courtney Roth, wherever you are ♥️

I don't want to hear ONE FUCKING COMPLAINT from
ANY Trump voters for the duration of your life about ANY, ANY fucking problems brought on by this dictator or his corrupt and incompetent cabinet picks. You lost your job because of Elon? STFU. Stuff it. Swallow it. Choke on it.
We all have to suffer because you lack the ability to see truth and think critically. National Parks closed or dirty?
Stuff it. Your child gets sick with e-coli. Stuff it. You get the measles, stuff it. Your bank rips you off? Stuff it. Your local health clinic closes? The air and water you breathe is filthy now? Stuff it. Your plane had a crash landing, deal with it. You lost your health care, suck it. They sold off public lands for logging near your home, stuff it! Fema isn't there to help you after the hurricane? Stuff it. Your cousin dies of sepsis because she couldn't get an abortion, stuff it. You can't afford groceries and the food banks are closed, too fucking bad, go hungry. Your income is down because no tourists want to visit your eatery? Too fucking bad. Your nephew gets disappeared by ICE, stuff it. Keep your fucking mouth closed. It was so obvious in 2016 he was a wannabe tyrant and most definitely a charlatan. You only need a miniscule amount of intuition and 3 brain cells to know he's a dangerous incompetent mobster. You voted for this. No one wants to hear it. You voted for this? You fucking OWN IT until your dying breath. You just spit on and dishonored every person who served our country and the family members of those who sacrificed for our freedoms...
