Establishment Democrats are rejecting an increasingly popular position by refusing to take a bold stance that happens to be good politics.
Yes.
Schumer thinks the kill shot for the republican opposition is to focus on lowering grocery prices (something they honestly have no power or plan to do) while citizens are getting shot in the street.
I got a newsletter from Gillibrand and she doesn’t even mention ICE, at the time a week after Renee Good was killed.
They’re not even picking up the ball.
Gillibrand and she doesn’t even mention ICE
Ah, the one that shivved Franken.
I would absolutely berate these people if I ever saw them on the street
The nobility should fear the peasantry.
Those two are con artists. It’s funny you mention Schumer having picking a topic he has no power over because I imagine that his role shtick.
Haha the Schumer Schtick: con the public by talkng about emotional idioms he has no control over and distract away from real issues he does have control over.
He had control over the shutdown, that absolutely worthless shit of a man.
probably the fact that bill kristol is calling to abolish ice but dem leaders can’t
These relics think the entire reason they loss was because of the bullshit immigrant propaganda pushed by the MAGAt right. So they think their path to success will be showing those MAGAts that they too are hard on immigrants, not even noticing the baby being washed out with the bathwater.
“Nothing will fundamentally change and the economy is fine.”
(loses)
“Wow you guys are so sexist.”
Trying to be more rightwing to get more voters never worked: the right demonized the Democrats, so they will never vote for them, while going even more to the right alienates the left.
But they will try anyway because going left would alienate their sponsors and doing nothing results in loss.
I heard Elissa Slotkin in an interview the other day, and she would not commit to trying to pursue reduced funding for ICE, much less abolishing it…
Try never picking it up in the first place.
It is time for DHS interests to bribe the Democrats some more. Don’t worry, they got this.
Remember: abolishing ICE is the compromise position. Never start negotiating with your end goal.
In that case, why not start with exterminate ICE to negotiate something in between?
Nuremberg II with no Operation Paperclip. (Not that any ICE dipshits would be smart enough to qualify anyway, but just to be safe.)
Establishment dems are 100% the kind of people who make excuses for abusive spouses hurting their kids. We need to get rid of everyone who’s to the right of Sanders in the dem party. That dude is pretty much the only centrist in their ‘leadership’
“We need to reach across the aisle and let him strangle his wife some more. She’s not dead, so she can clearly take a little extra. And the guy loves it. So let’s all calm down and let him squeeze her neck.”
“We’ll figure out the accountability mechanisms at the appropriate time,” Jeffries told reporters.
You’re fired.
Shooting innocent women in the face and kidnapping thousands of people to send to torture camps in 3rd world countries isn’t the appropriate time?
The appropriate time is very obviously when they need to bug you for donations and/or votes.
thousands of innocent people being kidnapped & tortured
The appropriate time…aka we’re not gonna so shit. Yesterday was the appropriate time you ghoulish fuck.
Well, when you phrase it like that…
Schumer: Dems are overwhelming becoming a popular resistance because of ice and republican fuck ups.
Jeffries: Not good. We must fuck this up.
AOC and Bernie: 🙄
Mamdani: 😫
Fetterman: 🥹
AOC Pelosi voted to continue funding Israel.
Can’t drop a ball you don’t pick up.
By not doing it.
Yes
