Yeah, but he became cool again when he started hanging with Lin Manuel Miranda and making Spotify playlists.

He was in the House of Representatives for almost 20 years and the Senate for a decade before he ran for president the first time.

whats yr point

a big dem impediment to having a good candidate from a voter pov, obvs nothing compared to corporate influence etc haha, is too many dems have expert syndrome they cant just like something they try to nate silver it, absolutely no theory of change just a bunch of cheap heuristics and historical anecdotes they think are universal laws, conclusions worse than if they were just folks

also their messaging sucks

a (waterface), Thursday, 28 March 2024 20:31 (one month ago) link

imo thats more a result of the things they want sucking than being bad at messaging particularly

i think if michelle obama ran as an independent that she would win.

yah for sure. "compromise" instead of, you know, "crazy stuff" (a 32 hour work week is not that crazy. but this will go nowhere.)

Oh absolutely that bill will go nowhere, but otoh, things like that are what plant the seed for eventual change so... I'm not mad at it, even knowing it's just a symbolic thing at this particular point in history.

other things aside i dont think that coming together as a nation rhetoric plays these days

lag∞n, Thursday, 28 March 2024 20:44 (one month ago) link

the example I keep bringing up is how everyone thought "build a wall" was the dumbest shit regardless of political affiliation but once Trump started winning primaries suddenly it became popular on the right. imagine that with an idea that's actually good and can be accomplished

you know upon reflection could the country go for another vague inspirational obama campaign, they might im not gonna rule it out, obvs there are other particulars re michelle not being a politician but big picture it could maybe work

Right wing heads would explode. Which would be a bonus.

They've already convinced themselves that Michelle is actually a man.

The spectacle of Donald Trump selling $60 Bibles is “a spit in the face of people that really believe”, the Rev Al Sharpton said, amid widespread backlash over the presumptive Republican presidential nominee’s latest moneymaking scheme.

“Blasphemy certainly comes to mind,” Sharpton told MSNBC.

“I think that people ought to realize how offensive this is to those of us that really believe in the Bible. He’s doing this during Holy Week. Tomorrow is Good Friday, Sunday is Easter. Of all of the times you want to hustle using the Bible, why would you do it during Holy Week, which is really a spit in the face of people that really believe in the Bible from a Christian point of view?”

Citing a source “familiar with the details of the business arrangement”, the New York Times reported that Trump is “getting royalties” from purchases of the branded Bible

My father-in-law taught a high school social studies class where one of the students was a teenage Al Sharpton. FIL says that Sharpton was very bright and opinionated.

I interviewed Al a couple of years back for a thing on Mahalia. He’s incredibly sharp and deeply rooted in the movement.

can someone who speaks "conservative" do me a solid and explain why it's okay for lara trump to be the head of the RNC but joe biden should be impeached because his son does business? thanks in advance!

It's okay when we do it but not okay when you do it?

President Keyes, Friday, 29 March 2024 14:28 (four weeks ago) link

But Lara Trump's penis is a-ok.

I mean, blatantly hypocrisy trails just behind cruelty as central trait of modern conservatism. Tribalism at its finest.

Preserve your sanity and remember the rule is "we do what we want; you do what you're told"

Hypocrisy is far down the list of things to hate about the Right. They believe anything is justified.
