yes a popular incumbent governor who was elected by a large margin in the previous midterm really helped the Clinton campaign in 2016 hhahah

@NickTagliaferro
do you think we should alter the laws to match what they were when your ancestors were allowed into the Country? Because, buddy, i've got some news for you!
@thornbill8
@wsbgnl
it's peak Democrat to take one of the few issues the public continues to approve of you on (masks) and light it on fire to appease the Times op-ed page
not to mention that masks are obviously very good! you know, to keep people from dying. a minor consideration
@lib_crusher
quite important to note that the conservative party in the US is also an outlier in the west for being very conservative and authoritarian
@VinegarMike
@The_Law_Boy
it's all so perfect, the fact that she didn't retire 5 years ago, the fact that she decided to go to a public gathering, that people who care about politics the most would want her at a public gathering
@acnewsitics
@LRec34
the rittenhouse thing is the fucking craziest thing imaginable, underaged and illegally crossing state lines with a weapon and he gets a police greeting for being there!
@whstancil
given the polling on how much more toxic a conviction makes trump to voters - Biden specifically appointing people to do this for 24 months seems like a big boo-boo. doesn't it!
@whstancil
can you imagine if the Democratic Governor of a trump +10 State had joked at a rally about it like 6 hrs after someone broke into Mitch McConnell's house to Murder him LMAO
@whstancil
as far as I can tell there's been Zero Congressional Response from Democrats about John Kelly admitting that Trump used the IRS to attack his Enemies
I don't think one Democrat has mentioned it in Public?
@jonfavs
yeah it's shocking jon. Remind us, what's been the recent message from Democrats on Covid?
a few weeks ago your co host said "if people are still wearing masks in November, Dems aren't gonna do well!"
@Fan26_America
@whstancil
people who risk a lot to travel into another country by definition are self selecting for liking that country LOL how is this not easily understood
@whstancil
if I were a Republican I couldn't have scripted these past 3 months any better - Biden and Dem Senators go out to the press every day - with only months left until the 2024 election - to scream and validate trump/miller talking points on immigration
@whstancil
hahahahahha I feel like im losing my mind- Ossoff and Warnock won GA runoffs they were given ~5-10% chance of pulling off in part by attacking attacking attacking Perdue/Loeffler
I thought a lesson had been learned!
@whstancil
but one of these is more responsible lol Biden just deciding let's let trump off during his coup attempt yes yes definitely the best way to make regular people understand how bad he is!
@canering
@thordotcomputer
@lxeagle17
it wasn't about how they handled Katrina lol it's bc the storm took out the oil refineries in the gulf of Mexico and doubled the price of oil haha
@aquaimperium8
Hillary Clinton was brought into swing states to campaign in 2014 instead of the polarizing and unpopular (most unpopular he'd ever been in polls) Obama!
imagine telling someone that 2 yrs later lol
@emptywheel
are you arguing the Garland is not responsible for not investigating & prosecuting Trump's attempt to overthrow the Government for his 2 years on the job
@NickTagliaferro
the stakes were so high that it was hard to enjoy it, but looking back now it's obvious biden's 2020 run (and the fact that he won!) is one of the funniest things to ever happen in politics
@Maolover1949
@cushbomb
also that Democrat president bill clinton kept him on so he could raise interest rates 6 times between 1999 and election day 2000. A party that tries to lose
@PhillyGov
@PanasonicDX4500
fetterman did under run josh shapiro by 10% against one of the worst senate candidate in american history bc fetterman is also an awful senate candidate
but I was talking about Tom wolf in 2014
@HippityD
@PhillipBrandon
@ianbremmer
Yes wearing blackface in the past is totally the same as being a raving lunatic who tells American lawmakers of color to go back to the countries they are from while you’re the president of the country
@bikemogacz
@lib_crusher
yes the party whose leadership call climate change a hoax and passes strict abortion criminal laws is further to the right than virtually every party in europe
@OsitaNwanevu
it's so insane, there are people who've lived through the last 5 years that think this will matter in two days. He mocked mccain for being a POW in 2015 and he rose in the polls!
@whstancil
shocking that this is one of the geniuses who crafted Gore's 2000 message of "im not close to the Incumbent Dem President who's near 70% Approval" and then went to work in 04 for the guy who was chosen as VP to drive that message home LMAO
@RebeccaPHall
@aliberk65
@chrislhayes
If a freshman rep is causing people to say they're more likely to vote for the overtly racist, sexually abusive, amazingly corrupt criminal who broke election laws to win his office, I have some bad news: Those people were never going to vote for a democrat
@chrislhayes
It's so amazing that I can't recall Biden ONE TIME messaging about HEROES ACT or Direct payments to people
All I recall is him saying every other day that "nobody is looking for a handout"
such a worthless messenger for his party!
@NickTagliaferro
@ImNotOwned
If every Democrat had just screamed at the top of their lungs about weed for the past 18 months the party does way better! They must know this
@pilgrim76
@whstancil
remember how sean patrick maloney, a member of Democratic Leadership, said Dems shouldn't focus on trump stealing Top Secret Nuclear documents bc voters won't care about it
he's now polling worse than most House incumbents relative to the partisanship of his District. hmmm
@OsitaNwanevu
at some point in 2021 there'll be a quote from Biden or his team about how great of an accomplishment it is that 1/3 of Republicans in congress acknowledge Joe Biden as president
@KrangTNelson
Schumer re appointed her to the Judiciary Committee AFTER THE 2022 ELECTIONS LMAO him doing this cost dems months of judicial confirmation time
@rachaelmbade
Miller went on Lou Dobbs (who fox fucking news fired b/c he eventually got sued a million times) to say the election was fraudulent.
"what are we, a banana republic" was how he described the election to Dobbs
@annaconda1
@TonyRomm
@swin24
@JStein_WaPo
better enjoy it b/c if the extension is only 2 yrs there's no chance in hell that's gonna pass under an R Congress. Dems won't have congress again until maybe the first midterm of the next time an R is President
@OsitaNwanevu
Everyone remembers nate silver for screwing up the 2016 general, but the primary was the real failure. He called trump a joke candidate after he came in a close second in Iowa and was leading national polls. I was very uninformed about politics back then and I knew it was insane
@Benjome1
@ElpisActual
Dems have to message on this consistently for the next 4 months. new statements campaign stops every 3 hrs
Doesn't matter if Biden and the White house aren't comfortable with it
@Randozza
@ettingermentum
screaming about the border for 60 days straight and getting media to cover it exponentially more than they already were very obviously weakens Democrats and not Republicans
how the fuck do you not understand this
@Fan26_America
@whstancil
the exact same thing was said about my ancestors who traveled from Europe into ellis island and spoke so little english that they were given a new American name
but myself and both my parents are native born Americans; so if the new people have children does it ameliorate?
@VinegarMike
@The_Law_Boy
it's not like her seat is toast, either! If she lives another 6 months there's a fairly good chance a liberal could replace her. Just 6 more months and we're in the middle of a once in a century plague, and she's at a wedding!
@elizaorlins
@chargrille
@NYCMayor
recalling ~ a year ago when Adams said new technology made it possible for 400 kids per teacher...im actually kind of surprised that didn't end his campaign
@ElieNYC
literally the press moved on like 3hrs after John Kelly came out and said how Trump spent most of his Term plotting about how to properly Sick the IRS on his Enemies LMAO
@emptywheel
the important thing to understand about McConnell and most Rs is they think it's funny that media/pundits track their Hypocrisy
they thoroughly enjoy being bad faith Liars
@AgentNumberBlue
@Taniel
yeah I mean trump being competitive in the 2016 election was a sign of where things were going
the court taking the 2000 election too
@EndoraRosenbla1
@Lis_Smith
Lis worked with Andrew Cuomo and Republicans for 15 years in New York to Gerrymander the State against Democrats
it likely cost Democrats the House of Representatives in 2022
@PavelvonSzebin
@bestselling
@danpfeiffer
Trump literally admitted this on tv a couple days after firing him. It's not like it's some sourced reporting that is open to interpretation
@Maolover1949
@cushbomb
The median Democrat position is that polite Republicans should be kept in positions of power so they can help other Republicans get elected president. The median Republican position is that election officials have to go to prison if a Democrat comes close to winning
@ettingermentum
Stunning how people who lived through that will say how Biden is a competent tactician lmao he ended up with 2 trillion less in spending than what Manchin was publicly floating in early 21
@stretch14tw
@What46HasDone
designed by Elaine Chao and paid for through infrastructure privatization. was literally being lobbied for by the Chamber of Commerce LMAO
trump and Chao proposed it in 17/18 and Democrats laughed at them LMAO
@ErynWhy
@ZackBornstein
@AngelaLovesNY
yeah he's not a real person. I'm assuming his childhood was basically the first half of Richie Rich
Every so often, like when he insists you need ID to buy groceries, you're reminded that his life has been so unusual that he's probably never bought food at a grocery store
@Wangruix
@Taniel
the Biden people (and moderate wing of the party generally) constantly deride more liberal people for not caring about winning (ie not caring about how issues poll)
If winning is the only objective in 4 months, Biden should run on legal weed and a wealth tax
@LemieuxLGM
@NickTagliaferro
yeah and Warnock especially needs to win election again in 20 months (and Dems need him to to keep the senate) so they should fucking listen
@morganducks
@thrasherxy
Biden dedicated his 2nd oval office address as President to describing why the Netanyahu government urgently needs another 14 Billion Dollars
@lowkell
@drvox
It's gonna be so amazing if Biden wins, Republicans will pretend to care about so many things again, and the media will pretend to believe them
@Gloomwhisper
@whstancil
Don't forget literally telling the public, every day, how friendly you are with Mitch McConell
the most unpopular Opposition Leader in modern American history
