  • “5. Vance is 6’2”, AOC is 5’4”. Standing together in a debate, AOC will look small”

    I get large swathes of America are racist/sexist/materialistic, but it’s unserious to think people won’t vote for her cause she’s the average height for a woman

  • She’s obviously unqualified dude, it’s a prerequisite that you need to suck the dick of every Fortune 500 CEO to run for president

  • In a way it kind of is, I’d rather someone be an open and honest fascist than a closet fascist/fascist collaborator. Easy to read intentions and I know to expect absolutely nothing from you but pain.

  • It really is sad though that 99% of politicians here have completely sold us out. We’re on our own. Nobody is coming to save us

  • The level of political rot in this country is at comical levels, as we can see from this race.

    There is NOTHING Stevens is better on than Abdul. NOTHING. I cannot believe this horseshit

  • I am aware of how aging works, yes. I’m also aware that you are not guaranteed to turn into a conservative once you’re past 60 and not everyone’s cognitive decline happens exactly the same at the exact same ages

  • Because I wasn’t responding to this original comment, dude, it’s a new conversation. I am so sorry you were weirded out by that.

  • He’s 58 dude. Guess we can’t elect anyone progressive over the age of 50 out of fear they might turn conservative. Chris Van Hollen’s gonna turn into Reagan reincarnated any minute now

  • He’s been a Democrat for over 20 years and endorsed Bernie each presidential campaign he ran and was actually endorsed by the DSA, unlike Platner. These are not ‘new’ beliefs. So odd we get these ‘people can’t change’ opinions about politicians while leftists (assuming you’re one too) also believe in prison abolition/reform. You can’t have both.

    You also just don’t seem to know what Patriotic Millionaires is

  • Woman who dated Graham Platner says he sexually assaulted her

  • That’s not a good comparison at all. People don’t vote for speakers at conventions, and Bill is very unpopular and would get decimated in any election right now even if he was 20 years younger

  • Denial (cope?) stage. Give it a day or two, I hope

  • Woman who dated Graham Platner says he sexually assaulted her

    Jump

  • You are asking Democratic voters to overlook a credible rape allegation, we are not Republicans. It’s not going to happen, Platner is not going to win after this.

    I don’t know how the Maine DSC works, but it’s not a given they’ll shit out Mills depending how they work. In my state, delegates from each caucus would vote for it, and our delegates this year were HEAVILY left-leaning (a midwestern state).

  • Woman who dated Graham Platner says he sexually assaulted her

    Jump

  • Platner just isn’t going to win after this unless it’s roundly debunked. Would I still vote for him over Collins in November if I lived in Maine? Probably, but I wouldn’t be pumped about it at all anymore.

    Best case scenario is he drops out and the Maine DSC nominates a new candidate who isn’t Mills.

  • Woman who dated Graham Platner says he sexually assaulted her

  • No real winning outcome on this. A guy with a credible SA allegation doesn’t deserve to be a Senator, we don’t deserve another term of Susan Collins or a Republican majority in Congress. I just don’t think a replacement for Platner is beating Collins

  • Woman who dated Graham Platner says he sexually assaulted her

    Jump

  • Well this seems a lot more believable than everything in the NYT story. I was all in on Platner and still have some skepticism of this just due to the sheer amount of political ratfuckery in this country, but yeah this probably could end his campaign unless some other evidence against it comes out fast.

    The timing of this, seeing some random people on Threads/Twitter say another accusation against him is coming a few hours ago, articles about how to replace a candidate in Maine ready to go right away etc., is definitely really suspicious too. This whole thing fucking sucks dude.

  • So vandalism should be met with a 50 year prison sentence?

  • Postal Service skips hearing with WA lawmakers on mail-in ballot rules

    Jump

  • Who the fuck knows what’s going to happen anymore, but I don’t really think they’re going to be able to not deliver mail-in ballots. The Postal Workers Union has already said they do not care what the Postmaster General or anyone else says, they will be delivering ballots. States run their elections, if the states also tell Washington to kick rocks, there’s not much they can do besides firing all the postal workers and good fucking luck canning an incredibly powerful union with multiple additional legal protections that other unions don’t have
