Just an ordinary advocate for a single payer healthcare program. Also we can't have another Iraq. #M4A#NoWarWithIran

Things I think the next dem trifecta should have the political capital to do. 1. Abolish the filibuster 2. Abortion protections 3. Medicaid expansion 4. Prescription drug negotiation enhancement 5. Bare bones public option 6. Taxes on the rich to reduce the deficit

@TheBCAnalyst @wifeknave @avrilbradley23 There's a clear relationship between Israel's actions and it's reputation among the public more broadly. Israel's numbers among the public actually improved immediately after Oct 7th. What certain people say and what people more broadly believe aren't the same thing.

@wifeknave @avrilbradley23 Not only is this false (noone has ever made peace proposal on these or similar terms), the Left will always unconditionally support Palestinian extremists (10/7 showed this).

@_giacomo_volpe_ He’s never held any office of any significance and he claims that he is a completely different person than he was four years ago, so that’s impossible to assess.

The Virginia Early Vote will be ~Yes +10, if I had to guess. For No to win, they very likely need to instead keep the overall early vote to a mid-to-high single-digit loss at a bare minimum, coupled with skyrocketing turnout on EDay from their side, esp. in Hanover & Roanoke

@dark7eleme40971 As long as she controlled how much she produced it would be fine. The world produces thousands of tons of gold every year.

The first time Eve sold an apple (or whatever common object) she turned into gold it would, no exaggeration, cause a sweeping global economic crisis.

@thelukadoncic That wasn't the point of the post, we see why she can't just build stuff out of the blue, but she could absolutely sell the gold she creates to afford a house.

@payer_single @JannTosh1 @ChicagosLoneCon GA is definitely inelastic, as is most of the deep south due to racial polarization. Again, Warnock BARELY won against a comically awful candidate, and the amount of people who voted Perdue-Walker-Trump but will magically break for Ossoff this time will be utterly negligible.

@YELLOWFACEUSA Depends on the candidate. Some can, some can’t. You have to choose carefully which ones to nominate.

@ath3na89 @BasedIllinoisan @anotheranzz @Bear_Moder I'm not comparing the states, I'm saying Summer Lee/Bernie didn't spend any time campaigning or fundraising for themselves because they were incumbents with easy races. So comparing those results to Kamala doesn't make sense, we would need to think about how they would campaign.

@GrantMa25066011 @JannTosh1 @ChicagosLoneCon If you're right then I'll see you in November. The best predictor of future performance is past performance, environment, and lean of the seat. Even if I thought Ossoff was as strong as Mike Collins I'd still expect him to win by close to 8 points. GA isn't inelastic.

@payer_single @JannTosh1 @ChicagosLoneCon But please, I’d LOVE to hear your reasoning for why you think a generic white resistlib candidate who’s not even a Christian is gonna magically convert Evangelical farmers who haven’t voted blue for anything since like 2006, if not earlier. 🤡

@GrantMa25066011 @JannTosh1 @ChicagosLoneCon Here me now quote me later. Ossoff will win by close to double digits if not more. Bookmark it even. Predicting that the polls are currently overestimating Ossoff is a colossal mistake.

@JannTosh1 @ChicagosLoneCon Polls this early almost always overestimate incumbents and people with high name recognition, but a lot of people can never seem to grasp that VERY important rule of politics.

@YouTubeNerdNick @GrantMa25066011 @ChicagosLoneCon If you look at 2021, NJ swung about as much as VA. In 2025 the same thing happened. I think 1st year NJ and VA are becoming more like fundamentals elections. National environment now swamps most of the differences in candidate quality in these elections.

@GrantMa25066011 @ChicagosLoneCon I think for NJ, everyone just got too excited about the race after Ciaterreli dramatically overperformed in 2021 and naively assumed that that automatically meant it was gonna happen again.

@dothejackal @BasedIllinoisan @sonicfan75 @BarryMcOnHere Primary voters are not equivalent to general election voters. Just ask the clown car of past GOP nominees in 2022 and 2024. Also with Lee she already has a track record of performance where we can base things off of. Maybe that changes in her 2026 run but right now it looks bad.

@BasedIllinoisan @sonicfan75 @BarryMcOnHere Isn’t that the point of a primary? Whose message resonates with voters? Also, Fetterman won as a relatively unknown apparent populist outsider. Lamb was straight from the party. Not sure any predictions for that state hold weight right now.

@AlexTheWonder9 @moonbeamer6 @scott_kernen He beat 2 opponents back to back actually. And one by 3 during a red leaning year when the GOP swept Georgia across the board. If you think he’s weak name one guy who’s not Kemp who’ll definitely beat him.

I don’t have much faith in the GOP to hold that Wisconsin senate seat in 2028 so the argument of having 50, 51, or 52 senate seats after this year is pretty substantial.

@BaileePolitics It’s a Kamala +19 district. Under running Kamala by over 6 points as an incumbent no less is not a good performance no matter how you slice it.

@Kuomozelion @ZFlawles1s @Zoomer_Doomer_ Relying on a blue wave in a presidential year to bail out our candidates is a very bad strategy. We already went through this very assumption in 2020. You should start off with the assumption that 2028 will be a lot redder than 2026.
