Schumer’s imaginary constituents have totally accepted conservative framing. Any half-wit can recognize that this is a failure of Schumer/Dems, who should be waging a campaign against such framing, not accepting it.
Also, these ppl are imaginary! He has actual, real constituents that he could ask!

It’s impossible to express how radicalized I’ve become against the Democrats in the past two months. Just an absolutely worthless political party that’s sold us out to literal fucking fascism.

I didn’t realize Nolan Ryan became #1 in 1983. He pitched for 10 more years! lol

If there’s nothing the Democrats can do then what’s even the point of electing them or having a form of political opposition? If you can’t even imagine a world in which laws can be enforced then what’s the point of laws?

this is the story of both Musk and Trump. they discovered semi-accidentally that the establishment is too blinkered and chickenshit to enforce the laws as written, and kicked through that rotten door. but it's given them (particularly Musk) Mad Emperor Syndrome

Buried at the end is a great quote that sums up the Dem Party’s view of politics
“Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan, a moderate freshman Dem, said Republicans need to sort their own problems.
“The Republicans are in the driver's seat and the passenger seat and the best seat’s in the back,” she said

I genuinely believe The Democrats don’t have a hill they’re willing to die on, at least not an ideological hill. They’ve let unions & public ed die, Bush v Gore, Citizen’s United, a literal coup attempt, fucking Roe V Wade WHILE IN POWER, the list goes on and on. Literally, what do they believe?

I like Alisha Sonnier and Megan Elya-Green, and I like the direction they want to take the city. I don’t pay as close attention as I’d probably like, so what do you think is an example, exactly?

The market for the worst, shittiest jobs is better now than in the 1980s. Opportunity! What is everyone yelling at me?
