Republicans like those on The Bulwark don’t give two shits about the Democratic Party or promoting progressive or (God forbid!) liberal policies. They are only concerned with rehabbing the Republican Party by ending Trump’s political career. I love the ads the Lincoln Project puts out, but they are merely anti-Trump. That’s fine. That’s their mission, but their ultimate goal is to get the old band back together and resurrect The Reagan Republicans. Reagan was a piece of shit. Fuck him. He was an asshole who did nothing that didn’t benefit his wealthy donors and corporations. Fuck Reagan. Go read up on Reagan’s response to AIDS if you have any doubts. Fuck Reagan and these Reagan Republicans posing as the saviors of us poor Democrats who need so much help. We don’t. We just need an actual functioning press in this nation and not a collection of media outlets that polish Trump’s turds and throw them at Kamala and Biden before her. And fuck Reagan.

I agree so strongly with this. Just another Biden? Great! Fine! Woman of color? Great! Fantastic! Smart? Joyful? Unique? Yes yes yes. Fuck the old guard, they all need to make like an old soldier and fade the fuck away. No time left for games.

Going to the people is WAY more important than appeasing the press, which, no matter what, seems to be in Trump’s pocket. When you’re running for any office, the thing voters remember when they go to the polls is that you showed up in person and asked for their vote.

Drumpf hems and haws and horks up a slimy viscous hairball, and the press treats it as a serious proposal with a longer half-life than the next idiotic thought that pops into his thick skull. Harris talks at every rally about her goals and priorities and they demand thousand-page position papers, truly trying to set her up. But hey, let’s not talk about Project 2025, ‘cause Donnie Dimwit has given us his WORD that he knows nuthin’ about it.

And Longwell and Miller on their Bulwark podcasts keep whining about how Nikki Haley would’ve been so great and would’ve won.

So yeah, they will abandon the Dems as soon as the GOP gets their act together. Do not trust them or their opinions. They are republicans through and through.

What’s ironic is that they are both gay and the GOP has attacked them and the transgender.

Good luck with your GOP..

I’m sure they have your best interests at heart.

Why won’t Harris keep the agenda that Biden and his team have started ! It’s working she should complete what his vision are in honor of him putting American first, again also because it’s working. The second 4years of her admission she can set her own agendas. 🗽💪🏾😊

Let's not forget about Drumpf's important policy statements on snakes, sharks, water faucets, boat batteries, etc.

I left this on Alicia Norman’s Substack the other day (you also had several excellent comments on that thread) and am reposting it here.

This is more of a “if the shoes fits” statement, rather than being aimed at any particular group or individual.

Even if you leave Trump out of the equation, you see that every one of those “Classic Republican” assholes bought into massive tax reductions for the rich and “trickle down economics” for the poor and middle class. These have been standard GOP economic “principles”for the last 40 years. Principles that has created a class of billionaires and cast thousands of families into poverty while gutting the middle class.

Added to that, I don’t know of any one of them that sincerely spoke up for basic civil and human rights for women, BIPOC, or LBGTQ+ people, or anyone for that matter. It is, and always has been about them maintaining their privilege, and they’re still doing it.

Just because Reality is now biting them on their privileged asses and they’re fighting to stay relevant doesn’t mean they’ve changed anything of consequence.

Fuck them.

I agree with everything everyone else wrote. I'm SO tired of old white guys whining and whinging. Can't they accept that everything has changed and what they say doesn't really matter anymore ? (rhetorical question🙄)

No, they cant...

Becoming irrelevant makes it suck to be them.....

I don't give a fuck about their feelings.
