Former policy wonk
If he can win the primary, yeah. But as Oliver says, there are better candidates available. People are thinking Newsom’s It just because he’s been vocal and out front. I’m curious how he’ll handle himself when he’s challenged on his pro-billionaire shit on a debate stage against other Democrats.

Any Democrat who is currently voting to confirm Trump judges in the senate or sponsoring pro-crypto legislation or greasing the skids to build more AI data centers should really look at Obama 2008 and how he won, not just by oratory, but by also being able to say he was always against the Iraq War

He should be considering how his pro-billionaire and anti-trans positions will play out in a Democratic primary campaign

He’s got one thing going for him (loudly shitting on Trump) and he thinks that’ll carry him through a primary. He should ask Rudy Giuliani how being a one-trick early front runner works out.

Yet another data point in the story of why Shapiro is Not It for the democrats

I don’t hope for any unnecessary deaths or destruction. But I do hope that this is a debacle for Trump. The US’s casual insistence that it had the right to just blockade or drone strike whomever they want because of vibes is beyond f**ked up. No more dangerous country on earth than the US.

Good luck to the GOP with those inroads they made with young men 😒

Trump is all id. Pure appetite.

Democrats should introduce legislation that says Congress members have to enroll in the worst healthcare plan on offer on the market. Bet Americans would see some changes pretty quick to the quality and affordability of healthcare then.

What does Jamil Jivani think he can offer JD Vance that would convince Vance to try to convince Trump to give Canada a better deal? Is it just the inherent charisma of being Temu Charlie Kirk?

No country can ever trust the US again. I know that many democrats and probably some republicans would like to think that they can return to the status quo ante after 2028, but we’ve all seen what Americans are capable of voting into office. It’ll take a generation of effort to win the world back.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

Consider Canada? Nova Scotia in particular has a few fantastic smaller universities and it’s safe, chill, fun.

Hope Trump’s pudding-brained enough to release the Epstein files to distract from his soulless Rob Reiner take

Hakeem Jeffries has flaws as a leader, but his response to the Cuellar pardon is completely disqualifying. Democrats can’t mount a fully effective campaign against Trump’s corruption when l their own leadership is willing to excuse it sometimes

I can be compelled by the argument that politically it wouldn’t be a good idea to pursue impeachment (don’t want to give republicans something to rally around) but for her to say that there’s not even a *reason* to pursue impeachment is unbelievable.
