Democrats can't even get on code for these two important runoffs. They let the media run with the infighting narrative, AOC is outchea sending passive aggressive "YAAAASSS QUEEN!" tweets, and Joe Manchin has quadrupled down on his premise of, "Even if we win the senate, I'll willingly let Mitch McConnell obstruct."

Democrats are getting washed in 2022, and they deserve every bit of failure they get.


I'll legit be surprised if it doesn't happen

Why don’t the Democrats ever demonize anyone? Republicans hate Nancy Pelosi because she a woman from San Francisco.

If Dems want to excite the base—since they won’t do it with polices—make Turtle a villain and make every ad about Turtle.

What is the maximum amount of daps you can hand out on one post?

There is two things about this though.

1) In every single Senate debate, Republicans tied the candidate to boogeymen: AOC, Pelosi, and Schumer, regardless of the policy. Dems rebutted with actual facts, they didn’t tie those facts to anyone that people could rail against.

2) It would refreshing to point out to voters how beta their Senators are. If you point out that they’ve done nothing but vote on what McConnell wants, when he wants and how he wants because they are scared and then tie the lack of action on numerous fronts..... but not just McConnell. Rand Paul. Lindsay Graham. Why are these senators from states that pay the most in taxes and are more populous letting these senators from welfare states and small states choose the direction? Or flip it. Why isn’t our senator from our state exerting the power they should have to direct legislation toward what we need?

But I’ve said once and I’ll say it again. This goes back to Howard Dean trying to get rid of their “friends”. If we had rid ourselves of some of these dudes 10 years ago, we would have a head start on a lot of the policy goal we’re trying to enact now.

Ehhhh it’s still going to take years to undo the damage and losses from the COVID-19 pandemic. The worst hasn’t even happened yet. The next stimulus isn’t going to be enough to help out since the blue wave never happened and even the markets know that now.
Nah, if they knock out COVID by next summer, things will go gangbusters. There's too much Fed money floating around for it not to.

Ron Johnson needs to be voted out in 2022 in Wisconsin. Ben Wikler can get that job done.

Pat Toomey is retiring, so the PA seat could definitely flip. Probably most favorable Senate race for Ds.

Burr isn't running in NC? @Pressure @42 Monks you MFs better find a candidate who can campaign and not cheat on their spouse
two awful years in NC

Did Senate Dems even trash McConnell about holding up the stimulus? Talking points fall right on their lap and they just swipe it away like a leaf.
Nancy shoulda passed the $1.8 trillion bill negotiated with Mnuchin and had McConnell kill it.

She massively miscalculated.
