      Interested in liberal takes on this video with a pre-MSNBC Lawrence O’Donnell. He says to be willing to withhold your vote in order to push the party left. The exact opposite of the shit libs say today.

      I trust the people who used to work for the Democratic Party to know how they think. If they’re going to tell me to shut the fuck up because I have nowhere else to go, why would they listen to me at any point of the bullshit dog and pony shows we put on?

        Look, if youre not willing to vote in such a way that tge tax money extraxted from you at threat of violence is used to literally murder people you personally love, youre just a fascist. I dont get how this is hard to understand.

          My history shows that I “vote blue.” Not sure what you’re talking about. The only question is if it ultimately helps or hurts.

      Yes. Plenty of states didn’t even hold primaries. You think it was just a nice coincidence they didn’t pull Biden until after the primary anointed Copmala?
