America does not even remotely understand this, so they will not vote as such.
Polling and history say otherwise.
Obama won by such a blowout because he campaigned on policies that helped everyone, such as free healthcare. And then instead he did what republicans wanted, means-testing every policy and giving them half the discretionary budget, and the dems got blown the fuck out in 2010.
In 2020, like a quarter of voters I spoke to thought they were voting for free healthcare, college, freeing the immigrant concentration camps, legalizing cannabis, abolishing police, and every other good policy the republicans falsely accused the democrats of wanting. It was always awkward to explain that the election for any of that had been the primary but they should still vote dem.
The important part of a primary isn't the actual person, it's that they force the democrats to acknowledge what their base wants and pretend to want it too.
I wish it were true she lost because all the real leftists stayed home or voted for trump in protest, but that’s obviously not true.
Left policy isn't for the leftists, it's for everyone except the capitalists. Left policy polls incredibly well when it's divorced from democrats that have shown over and over will not do what their base wants.
Republicans fear their base, democrats despise their base.
She lost because this country is racist and sexist.
Do you think Biden would have done better?
Despite doing everything in her power to not look like a leftist, everyone still labeled her as a radical leftist
She told her base to fuck off, the genocide will continue, the wall will be built, we will have the most lethal military in history, all so that republicans would vote for her.
And then 5% of her vote came from registered republicans, down from 6% in 2020.
The president has the power to order the Department of education to delete the debt..
It doesn't matter if the courts later turn around and go "that was illegal", the debt is already gone and watching them try to create it out of thin air would be a wonderful tool to destroy the political legitimacy of the right-wing courts.
throwing the working class, lgbt and ethnic minorities under the bus
Who do you think the left represents?
Half a million per unit? Average apartment construction cost in Shanghai is ~$52.3/sqft, that's a bit under $50K/900sqft 2bd apartment. Elsewhere in China is cheaper.
When you centrally plan what resources will be needed at what price and what the completed apartments will sell for, you get much cheaper and higher quality apartments than the paper thin walled engineered lumber 5-over-1s we pay half a million for.
US cities have literally paid organizations more than that per year per person for tent camps.
The president appoints the head of the DoJ and DEA. Just appoint someone who says "I'll hold the hearing and we'll have the judgement within the hour". Instead they appointed someone who scheduled the hearing for after they'll have been kicked out by Trump's guy. There is no way to read that as anything but they never intended for it to be rescheduled at all.
Expecting the US to prevent other countries from going to war would require a level of intervention
Or just not sending them the weapons they're using to carry out that war.
Just look at how many ways Biden’s school debt relief plans were defeated.
Because Biden did it in ways the judges could block. Per the Department of Education, the executive has the authority to simply delete the debt and dare the judges to create new debt out of thin air.
Why? Do they just stop doing presentations instead of learning the new system?
Ah yes, the people calling out the democrats for facilitating genocide are responsible for the democrats loss. If nobody called them out, genocide would have been extremely popular.
Of course, if we had the power to sway the election, I wonder why the democrats didn't just listen to us and stop facilitating genocide.
PC projectors don't have as much functionality for standup and interactive presentations.
No, She is the current president, Who is the last president of China.
The DEA whose head Biden appointed decided to wait until the next president could block it?
I wonder if Biden ran it by Joe Manchin or the senate parliamentarian first.
Who would shoot the deer wearing a high-viz jacket?
It's not that uncommon, depending on how actively the state DNR hunts down pet deer.
White House Says Democrats Who Oppose Weapons To Israel Are Aiding Hamas
HuffPost obtained a White House message to senators ahead of a crucial vote on sending the Israelis more arms amid the Gaza and Lebanon wars. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) is helping the administration shield the policy.
We shouldn't have expected anything else from the guy who made his name by splitting with the party to oppose desegregation.
The Biden administration has changed its policy and approved a shipment of landmines for Ukraine.
I guess if Ukraine can't hold the territory, we can still punish Russia by blowing Ukrainian children's legs off for the next several decades.
US states if they used more economic borders

FEMA camps
Back during the Bush and Obama years, I remember hearing so many right-wing conspiracies about FEMA camps.
Why didn't anyone ask "If FEMA has the ability to set up camps and transport large numbers of people, why aren't they doing that every time there's a big hurricane or wildfire?"
Maersk profits crash as western missions fail to stop Yemen's Red Sea blockade.
Yemen continues to enforce a blockade on Israeli-linked ships despite US naval operations to stop them
Looks like it's having a measurable effect.
Kamala pledges to pass border bill
A complete transcript of the vice president's speech on July 30, 2004 in Atlanta
The bill in question is the one Biden tried to pass, but was blocked by republicans after Trump called it a bad bill, despite containing only things the republicans want.
It would enable the president to shut down the border and gives billions to ICE, CPB, US Marshals, etc to increase detention capacity, train additional personnel, etc. It also gave billions to Israel and Ukraine.
Kamala gonna have the immigrant vote locked up.
Democrats resubmit border shutdown bill
The bipartisan border enforcement compromise, blocked by Republicans in February, is all but certain to be thwarted again. Democrats aim to tag the G.O.P. as the culprit in its failure.
>Among other changes to immigration law, the measure would make it more difficult to gain asylum in the United States and increase detentions and deportations of those crossing into the country without authorization. It would also effectively close the border altogether if the average number of migrants encountered by immigration officials exceeded a certain threshold — an average of 5,000 over the course of a week or 8,500 on any given day. The bill also would give the president power to close the border unilaterally if migrant encounters reach an average of 4,000 per day over a week.
