"Progressive" Congresswomen Start To Show Their Stripes

I wonder how many of their followers are trolls, then it is a question of are they being persuaded by what they read the trolls saying. I have the same question with Trump, is he actually a stable genius or is he buying into the same garbage online that every other angry (insert insensitive category) guy over the age of 40 is falling for. I kind of think he more was taking advantage of the online hate groups and fell into a saudi/russian trap. I think that could be the same for what we saw in 2018.
You actually have to wonder if Trump is a genius?

They all represent low income districts that have been left on the wayside for decades, and yes, they are representing their constituent's plight, rightfully so.
I admire their enthusiasm in really bringing to the forefront issues that desperately need immediate attention, such as income equality and a fair wage and the necessity of converting to a Green energy program.
They are the future, like it or not, but just for one more year, they should shut the fuck up, or it will backfire, and give Trump more ammunition to call Democrats anti-American Socialist/Communists, and a lot of Independents will say, maybe he's right.
There's no time for this shit now.
As if Republicans won't call Democrats socialist/communist anyway.. You're sending the Delaney message. Here's the reality. Regardless of what Democrats do, Republicans will call them socialist/communist. They called Obama socialist for passing Mitt Romney's health care package for fucks sake.

If you were continuing being fuck and anal violated how long would you want someone to be silent to your abuse ? Would you want them to just wait a year ? or bring attention to your anal abuse ASAP.
Do you have a guarantee for next year to come ?

2008- Edwards was outed by National Enquirer for having a mistress, placing Obama and Clinton as far and away favorites to win.
2010- Trump starts Obama birther garbage as way to solidify the racist backing
2011- Trump switches stance to 'Pro-life' solidifying evangelical trust
2012- Trump backed out of presidential race, not enough hate built up is my guess.
2013- Trump Mrs. Universe pageant in Moscow around the time Snowden entered Russian protection
2014- Russians deploy agents across the USA to exploit our social weaknesses for exploitation online
2014- Trump moves from being positive about the Clintons to an Anti-Hilary stance.
2015- Has National Enquirer run interference for him printing negative articles about people running against Trump
2016- Trump becomes our president.

So either he had no clue and stumbled into everything and won the highest office in the land, or he put together a long term plan that ended up with him in the Oval Office. Could be somewhere in between, I tend to think he started courting the racists and evangelicals to get a strong backing in the republican base to get his name on a lot of signs and the Russians/Saudis/Cambridge Analytica won it for him with a combination of voter suppression and online trolling campaign designed to break down social discord.

That kind of shit doesn't work unless there is a receptive audience. Trump did not create racism in the US. He used it. The 40% who support him have never stopped supporting him either. Yes, all that propaganda did swing the election but the real reason he won is Trump's racist and misogynistic rhetoric appeals to the racist right.

I'm optimistic for 2020 because even though he won in the EC it was by a minority vote. He might win again but in 2020, nobody can say they were surprised by how bad a president he was afterward. I don't think the propaganda shenanigans will be as effective the next time around.

When Nancy did let them know they went on an all of scorched-earth twitter offensive. Just what we need.
Right. They should shut up and talk in line with the corporate owned Democratic party line.

Fuck that. That kind of thinking is exactly how we got Trump in the first place- and if the Democratic party keeps doing it, we'll get another 4 years of the Nazi Wannabe show.

I know you like to get offended by people with passion but when party unity is based on appealing the blue dogs, it's time for a change. Pelosi has overstayed and it shows.

I disagree. Now is EXACTLY the right time for this. If we end up with another Clinton nominee then Trump will walk all over them.

There are an awful lot of people who just don't seem to understand that people will not vote for corporate Democrats and Pelosi is nothing if not one of those.

Oh, the drunkard shows up for his daily drubbing.

Vulcan logic.

lol
Derp. Go lick Nancy Pelosi's shoes some more.

Now is the time for Democrats to make a strong shift Left, which will build credibility and hold the elites accountable. If they don't, they'll just play handmaiden to bitch McConnell and Co for the next 4 years.

What do you think would have been the consequences of voting against the supplemental funding legislation for the Border agency?

I never said they should shut up. Pelosi never said they should shut up. I can see you are getting into your old habits like you did when your girlfriend said she didn't want to go fuck strangers in a dank, depressing motel so you could get your crack money. Did you tell her to shut up right before you hit her? Is this the type of "passion" I get offended by?

Yes, she did tell them to shut up.

You just missed it, as usual.

Too bad Bernie is fading fast and Gabbard, well... she never really got off the ground did she?

Disagree all you want. Throw a tantrum. Nobody cares. Nobody respects your opinion or listens to what you say because you say false shit every time you come here. You have actually cost Bernie votes.

Please show me the source where Nancy Pelosi told AOC to shut up.

You can't even vote. Sad.
