>> I do not believe his policies go far enough to address the material needs of the American people

What are you aiming for, Nina, immobility & starvation?

So for the “progressive “ types, Joe just hasn’t been radical enough. Ok then.

She asks “how’d we (progressives) get here.?”

No mention of DEI. Identify politics coming back to bite.

Nina Turner?

But only now my love has grown
And it gets stronger, in every way
And it gets deeper, let me say
And it gets higher, day by day

And do I love Joe my oh my
Yeah, river deep, mountain high
If I lost you would I cry
Oh how I love you Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey

Wow. They won’t find a candidate further left than Biden.

These people do not realize that what “they” want doesn’t matter anymore. The people don’t trust them. Nothing they do is going to change the minds of anyone who watched that debate.

Instead of struggling to turn this around, they need to act quickly, decide to make a change, and try to make it work.

But they won’t because they don’t want to do anything difficult.

Screw ‘em.

The best thing for them is to go down in flames with Biden in November.

FWIW, Newsom already said he's not running. His play is in 2028.

Smart.

... it is on us to fight for a party that centers the people over the donor class.

This should be the demand of all Americans regardless of party affiliation. Sadly, too many Americans on all sides of the political spectrum are being played - and don't see it. Our laws allow the rich and powerful, their allies and lobbyists, and foreigners to buy/own our democrat and republican politicians. Until/unless our laws change to make our republic truly 'of the people, by the people and for the people' - we have no republic. Unfortunately, the ones in a position to change our laws to give power back to the people - are the ones benefiting from the corrupt system.

She was a lot better with Ike.

Nina is an intellectual lightweight hoping to aggrandize herself by hanging out with like second-raters. Much of this is simply The Message repackaged - Trump's lies, whatever they were, for example, well, we all know they must have been lies, don't we? It needs no explication. Real in-depth stuff there.

The reason her ideal Progressive remains in search of the ideal Progressive candidate is that neither really exists. They're both figments of an overheated political imagination. Policies inspired by vague abstractions - Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are three perfect examples - are to be judged by their stated aspirations, not by their results. When the latter come a cropper it's always somebody else's fault. It's a comforting cocoon of self-delusion and they will never be satisfied outside of it.

<< Former President Trump lied repeatedly [in the debate] >>

Yet they rarely specify the alleged lies. And when they do, it turns out to be mere hyperbole, not lying. Meanwhile…

The latest Trump target word..."liar"

As if that will distract from Joe's whoppers.
