@No1 Abrams hasn't changed. Seems to speak more on the ignorance on display but people stanning political movements without doing any research


Bloomberg was one of her backers when she ran for governor. What's changed between now and then, when she was a progressive darling?

See my last post. When was she a progressive darling? She was mentioned as a VP as accommodating the centrist wing of the party. And obviously people supported her as a gubernatorial candidate over that clown. None of that made her a “darling.” You underestimate people’s ability to think strategically because you’ve convinced yourself that you and 5 other people here are the “rationals” and anyone who disagrees with you is a “berniebro” when most of us have been having political arguments with each other for a decade...way before Sanders was a national figure.

Abrams wasn't a progressive darling? She was being pushed as a VP picked to accommodate centrist? Jesus christ

There isn’t a single leftist on here who was suggesting Stacey Abrams as VP or propping her up.

Yes, there were. If I weren't on mobile I'd post more examples.

you know who would be a good warren VP? beto

Abrams or Gillum would be better.

i don't follow. that quote is me saying beto would have been a good VP for warren

as a side note though, im at dudes suggesting abrams should have turned down that 5 million. look at how many people she registered to vote since 2016, you really have a problem with her taking 5 million dollars? gimme a break

Just an example of a Coli leftist saying Abrams should be VP.

I was told no Coli leftist proposed such a thing. I guess these guys aren't Coli leftists either.

Not sure about VP but I'd love to see him involve Abrams in a role with some influence and importance.

I'd prefer he push Warren to lead the Senate instead of useless Schumer. Abrams or Gillum for VP is still where I'm at.

I love Nina. I have more favorables with her than even Bernie. I don't think she be VP even though I'd love it.

People may not like it but I think Bernie will reach out to Stacey Abrams as the most compromise he can get. I'm not that high on Ayanna either.

Nina Turner helped launch her campaign.

Our Revolution Georgia endorsed Abrams last month, and Turner helped Abrams launch her campaign last June. Our Revolution’s state coalition offered a blistering critique of Evans' campaign approach last month, saying the "failed electoral strategy of pursuing legacy Dixiecrat voters and their sympathizers must be consigned to the dustbin of history" because "it has failed spectacularly on multiple occasions."

Or Bernie himself

Thursday of U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, a former presidential candidate who is a hero to many of the party’s progressives.

Sanders called Abrams, a former state House minority leader, the “only candidate for governor of Georgia who has real solutions that will help the lives of working people in Georgia.”

Dudes rewriting history.

Dudes being hypocrites all because they feel like Abrams is undermining Bernie Sanders.

They had no issue with him donating to her campaign or charities when he wasn't polling well. Now she's a fat fukk who can't be trusted.

Ideally it should be Warren but the Senate is too volitile right now. It's basically become the guard of our court system. Personally I'd like the VP to be a national congress person or governor but if Bernie is taking more of a take it to the streets style of governance then Abrams would be the choice that would satisfy all sides.

She's a good pick. I thought everyone on the left liked her until yesterday.

Bizarro world lately.

Yep, Abrams is solid in my book. I've kept quiet on the Bloomberg stuff with regards to her because I'm still mulling over the priorities...I think voter suppression is a massive threat, so pulling in a massive donation to fight it isn't exactly something I could just swat away and be upset about. Plus, I think she hits all the bases that would comfort moderate voters while being better than most other options.

Hilldawg would of unleashed the oppo already

She was clearly beating Bernie without, why would she release it?
