A final event held in the wrong district? LOLOLOL. That just put a song in my heart. God, sometimes I love that it’s the worst, stupidest Republicans running these days.
I really love seeing these assholes eat each other. But as I predicted, and what we all have to always expect looking at these crap headlines and coverages? McCain's Law is putting in work.
McCain's Law, know it, live by it, stay motivated and keep your focus on the mission Democrats. Do what you gotta do and get your asses to the ballot box, and use that early voting where available.
She's just hip to the usual ethnic cleansing-wishcasting, 'othering' rhetoric. And folks like Pilip think they're special, till they really get their wake-up call. They're only "the right way" till they're no longer useful to the fascists.
“I WANT TO BE LOVED!” Surprised he’s this self aware.
Voters said their biggest issue was immigration. The election was a week of so after the GOP House took its marching orders from Trump and didn’t vote for a bipartisan measure to address the border. Not all voters are as stupid as MAGA.
The media, once again, is garbage. If they were not garbage, their stories would be about:
1) The polls underestimated Dem support by several points in this election--does that suggest that they could be similarly wrong about Biden's chances this fall?
2) Suozzi successfully hammered Republicans for scuttling the border deal. If Dems keep hammering voters over this, could they defang Trump's strongest weapon for the fall?
3) Suozzi's comfortable win now means NY Dems' redistricting can afford to shift some blue pockets into neighboring districts, helping to pick up even more seats this fall.
4) Normally when a party loses a swing district (or several) they react by trying to moderate to appeal to swing voters. Republicans are instead doubling down on Trump who has proven toxic. Why is this? Are Republicans incapable of improvement?
Instead, we get a very smart take about how this is bad news for Biden, because the polls underestimated Suozzi but definitely, we can be certain, are not similarly underestimating Biden. Who pays these hacks, anyway?
Republican owners pay them! It's nice and easy to just fall back on McCain's Law as well as Murc's Law. "Well the Democrats won but...we just say it doesn't matter. They won the last gabillion special elections but it doesn't matter!"
Sadly they have unlimited funds to fuck with us because they and their Republican representatives represent the inheritors of the colonizers and plantation owners. They benefit from the Republican state-based terrorism against vulnerable minorities.
It's just a game for them and hey if they can get some nice, easy, effort-free clicks along the way, that's more money and more fun for them.
Santos was walking wounded. He would’ve lost to Suozzi in a general election race, esp with Biden on the ballot and been an embarrassment to other NY Republicans trying to keep their seats. They hoped that a Republican would’ve won the special and then been safer as an incumbent. It was a tactical not moral move.
Now they conveniently ignore that Santos is no longer in the news because he’s no longer in Congress! They just focus on his reliable vote for them without the downside of his still being in office. Again, very short sighted
It certainly runs against their messaging with Trump--if a lying con man is a dealbreaker, why do they make an exception at the top of the ticket?
I think they figured Santos cannot hold the district so they wanted to get someone else in there--he'd won it by 8 points in 2022 so surely a non-Santos candidate could also hold the seat. But they went with a lackluster candidate, Suozzi ran a smart campaign, and 2024 seems to be a worse environment for the GOP than 2022 was.
They've all become the NYT Pitchbot but not funny.

Sometimes.
"They might even pick up a phone and call someone like in the old days."
Hopes for a minute...
Nah.

One of Pilip’s talking points was she was a “legal” immigrant. Last time I checked, asking for asylum at the border is also legal.
She's just hip to the usual ethnic cleansing-wishcasting, 'othering' rhetoric. And folks like Pilip think they're special, till they really get their wake-up call. They're only "the right way" till they're no longer useful to the fascists.

Seems like they want things done.
That’s not self awareness- that’s mimicry. TFG mostly mimics emotions that are anywhere close to ‘empathetic”.
He doesn’t know how empathy works. That is all.

I confess I was a little surprised they ditched Santos...
... I mean: aren’t clownish disgusting con men who only stop lying long enough to take a breath pretty much the Republican brand now?

Pfffft… you assume they act with logic and consistency….facts not in evidence!
I wonder if they still consider it a bell weather. I am guessing no.
Never change, the press!
