    My main takeaway from this race is that it is very bearish for progressives in the 2028 Presidential Primary.

    When I saw the polls that said AES was on track for a double digit win, I thought that was great news for 2028. I think that Michigan is probably the second most progressive state (after New Hampshire) of the 6 early voting states on the new 2028 primary calendar, and maybe the most delegates. So I thought a decisive win for a progressive would be fantastic news in that regard.

    But this result makes it seem like 2028s primary in Michigan is going to be razor thin.

    And now, as he does every 2 years, ktt2 user Young D will shed his “leftist” camouflage, and return to his normal state as a neoconservative that likes gay people. Nature is fascinating

    Massive underperformance IMO and I'm scared about the Michigan midterm now. Glad it's not Stevens though.

    Being spent 9-1 and then winning isn't an underperformance considering how likely it is the one with more money always wins

    It was well explained by Nate Silver tbh — it was a great win by AES without context of the polls and talk. It was however, a pretty big mistake by AES and his campaign to release internal polling that showed a dominate win and to talk up a dominant win.

    If expectations had been different, the narrative right now would be even more pro progressives than when they won in NY a few weeks ago

    For our Great Republican Senators, friends of mine “all,” please be advised that the Communist Dumocrat Senate Candidate from Michigan, Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed, is touting, as perhaps his single most important point, the Termination of the Filibuster. I watched yesterday, and he’s gone Termination CRAZY. If he succeeds, the Dumocrats will gain 4 Senators, 8 Congressmen, many Electoral and Popular Votes, a stacked Supreme Court with 23 Justices, and I will be, sadly, despite the great job we are doing, the last Republican President!

    Trump just casually writing the best attack ad for a Dem nominee

  • Two things I took from this:

    1) I never realized just how inarticulate and difficult to follow Fetterman was. Not even saying this because of ideology, it’s just genuinely horrible. I’m not sure if it’s become worse since the stroke or if he was always this bad at speaking, but holy s*** I could not understand or follow hardly any of what he was saying.

    2) PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE for the love of god run for President Jon Stewart He does such an amazing job of making a case for progressive ideas but doing so in a way that doesn’t alienate or talk down to people with different views. And he’s so good at providing creative examples to promote those beliefs and policies.

  • Am I paranoid, ot do you think publications like NYT have malicious intent by using this picture? This is the picture I see most prominently to dsicuss his victory.

    Like without saying it, do you guys know why I'm even suggesting it?

    He’s saying it looks like he’s doing a nazi salute with his hand, which I guess kinda? I don’t totally disagree with him, but I also don’t know that it’s clear enough to be like they’re trying some s*** there

    God damn this country is so dumb bro.

    I was watching a video about Trumpers who regret their vote, and it dawned on me that a lot of people in America are just dumb asl and have no common sense.

    There's no like nuance to their thinking, they just take whatever is being said at the surface and expect it to be the gospel.

    This s***s not going anywhere either, with all these dumb people being easily influenced by AIPAC/Corporate propaganda. You got MAGAts now rocking with AIPAC and Israel strictly because Trump said so. They don't even know why, they just know it makes liberals mad

    Didn't this trick get cucked by the GOP?

    I really worry that this propaganda is working though. America is too racist to resist.

    The whole Senator McConnell thing is pretty baffling. Dems aren’t doing anything about it, and now this is giving way to future republicans that die but still hold office.

    S*** is a joke, I’m supposed to pick a party to vote for when both are silent about a dead person in office who hasn’t shown up to work for 3 months. Dems should be b****ing about this publicly everyday
