    You know what keeps me up at night? Democrats get elected into power and just leave shit all broken. I mean, sorry to say but that is the pattern we’ve seen from them for decades now.

    Now, please don’t get me wrong, I am NOT saying “both sides same, blah blah”. I just don’t really believe there’s anyone in the Capitol who is actually fighting for me anymore, save perhaps a tiny few who have no realistic chance to help. Not Bernie’s fault they fucked him over, for example, and I have mad respect for him. But one man, maybe one or two allies, standing in front of this wave of irrational hatred? We’re fucked.

      I keep hearing claims they have turned over a new leaf and are no longer fighting against progressives, but the Mamdani campaign, for example isn’t giving me much faith that this is true. You may very well be correct to worry about this.

        Same. That bs excuse of Jeffries not endorsing him, ‘I live 10 miles outside the city, y’all figure out your politics,’ was just trash. Not nearly as bad as others (gillibrand and the former gov, forget his name especially), but come on man.
