But then of course the libs save their big guns for smashing any progressives.

Scooter :polyamoryFlag:@JessTheUnstill@infosec.exchange @raphaelmorgan@disabled.social @Legit_Spaghetti@mastodo.neoliber.al They're definitely ready to take on Zohran Mamdani.
Funny that "Vote Blue No Matter Who" no longer applies.
Legit_Spaghetti@scooter@labyrinth.zone @raphaelmorgan@disabled.social @JessTheUnstill@infosec.exchange It's infuriating. Instead of learning from Mamdani, New York Democrats seem to be hellbent on scuttling his chances. I don't think they'll succeed; Mamdani has been handling the headwinds really well. But it doesn't instill confidence when folks like Schumer or Jeffries refuse to acknowledge which way voters want the party to go.
Clearly progressive policies are popular, and that's not going to change no matter how many progressives they kneecap.
Jess👾I'm even willing to acknowledge that Dems have always been a big tent party, and that the people and policies who are popular in NYC might get obliterated in Iowa. So tbh id be okay with the national Dems just drawing up like just a few core planks including "civil rights for everyone" everyone needs to have, and beyond that, leave it to the incumbents to defend their own seats if they can. National party ain't gonna do shit until the General.
