“(For Dems) too short-sighted to realize that the (fall of GOP over Watergate) means your own demise, that the demise of politicians and political parties means the demise of the system, then one of us is very stupid… I don’t think it’s me.” Biden, 1973 https://t.co/L7PbOSyxMU

Trump learned from Roy Cohn - arguably the worst human ever. Cohn learned from reading Goebbels - the modern master at combining propaganda with sociopathy. It's the same playbook. Lie. Repeat. Admit nothing. Go all in. All the time. Double down. Deflect. Distract. Double down

I can usually find a few glimmers of hope for either party after every election, but for the first time, I can't find anything for the Republicans. - Blown out in NJ/VA/PA/GA - Lost Mississippi supermajority (!) - CA redistricting exceeds Harris' margin Brutal across the board.

The Democrats are on track for Reagan-’84 margins in the next election. That's because, without a doubt, Trump will take no lessons from last night. He won’t change a thing. The decline will deepen, the suffering will get worse, and the GOP will rightfully take all the blame.

It turns out being super racist and cynically bringing up 9/11 at every turn wasn’t the best way to win the hearts of New York City voters

Imagine what a garbage human you have to be to remove sign language interpreters from the White House. It means you’re the kind of person that likes to discriminate against deaf people. Honestly sounds like some Stephen Miller shit.

The big message of tonight's elections for national Democrats? Don't cut a deal on reopening the government until Republicans protect Americans' health care. Do. Not. Cave.

I saw with my own eyes four U.S. citizen children detained in a windowless cell, held captive by YOUR agents. Stop the lies.

one interesting thing about rep andy ogles is he set up a go fund me to make a memorial garden for stillborn children, raised 25k, then just kept the money and never built the garden

Andrew Cuomo gave more money in taxpayer subsidies to Elon Musk than the entire cost of Zohran Mamdani’s free bus plan. It’s not unreasonable or radical to want our tax dollars to go to programs that help us, instead of as giveaways to billionaires.

AOC has me soooo pumped up right now "We have a future to plan for. We have a future to fight for. And we're either going to do that together, or you're going to be left behind. This is about 'do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now?' And the assignment is

You have to admire this. Only Trump could build a brand new GOP coalition and then destroy it in less than one year. It's very impressive.

It's disqualifying to serve as a leader of the Democratic Party and not vote for the Democratic nominee

Why we are where we are: The Democrats ran 3 presidential candidates who voted for Cheney's manufactured war on Iraq and then, when Obama, who opposed the war, had a chance to hold Cheney and his crew accountable, shrugged it off with "I guess we tortured some folks."

And there's moer: Democrats have flipped two seats in the Mississippi senate, and in so doing they've broken the GOP's supermajority in the chamber.

Moderate democrats backed a grandma killing sex pest over a democratic socialist. They wanted to give a trump ally control over the country’s largest and most consequential city because they’d rather ally with fascism than give the left even a semblance of power. And they lost.

AOC when asked on CNN about Schumer not endorsing Mamdani: "The Democratic Party cannot last much longer by denying the future, by trying to undercut our young, by trying to undercut a next generation of diverse and upcoming Democrats that the actual electorate and voters

Mamdani didn't just beat Cuomo -- he also defeated the NY Post, the Wall Street Journal, Elon Musk, the New York Times, Dem establishment, Republicans, Donald Trump, real estate guys, Chuck Schumer, billionaires. That's impressive.

well I for one am shocked that "every aspect of your life gets worse forever and also look at my marble bathroom" did not turn out to be a winning election strategy

Mamdani shows that the future of the Democratic Party has to be about principled movement building that imagines a different future, not a stale poll-tested defense of a status quo nobody wants.

Apparently, the Democrats subreddit banned any posts about Mamdani lol
