@QasimRashid Corporate Democrats are the anaesthesia party. "You are going to sleeep. You are going to sleeep. …"

Disappointed in Whitehouse.
I expect it from Schiff. I can't stand him. Him and Newsome.

@QasimRashid

Remember when they were trying to peddle Slotkin as the "future of the party"? Clown party.

[thegorf@mastodon.social]

@QasimRashid As usual, Fail Us Fetterman is on the list. No surprise there.

@jeffcodes Peters is retiring, so there is going to be a primary for his position. Tell your friends in Michigan to support Abdul El-Sayed for senate in the Democratic primary.

@QasimRashid I think this is when "left wing, right wing, same bird" becomes most obvious.

[scotec65@epicure.social]

@QasimRashid With Dems like that, who needs repubs.

The last time the "leftists" ran a candidate it was Fetterman. While Qasim is scoring big points on social media with this hot take, I'm pretty sure the "corporate Democrats" are just making the best of the crappy situation MAGA and the leftists put them in with their stupid uncommitted movement.

It's funny how you guys were quiet when Bernie voted for two of Trump's cabinet nominees, while eight corporate Democrats voted for just one, Rubio.

@QasimRashid I really hope my two Senators (on this list) get primaried out. If not, I'm going to hate voting for them. But not voting, protest voting or voting for a Republican is out of the question. #usPolitics

@QasimRashid I think they know they’re the loyal opposition, and very comfortable at that, too.

I think what needs to happen is for them to lose popular support. For good.

@HakeemG @jeffcodes @QasimRashid

I'm in PA, and that's bullpucky.

Malcom Kenyatta ran to Fetterman's left, Conor Lamb to his right, but mostly Fetterman was a populist candidate.

Then he had a stroke. I'm no neurologist, but he doesn't seem to be the same person he was before the stroke.

[hakeemg@mastodon.social]

@joeinwynnewood @jeffcodes @QasimRashid

I've heard this BS stroke excuse before, and I'm not buying it. Fetterman is a snake in the grass, just like Sinema was before him.

[joeinwynnewood@mstdn.social]

@HakeemG @jeffcodes @QasimRashid

You can buy whatever you like. What you can't do is claim he was the leftist candidate because that's bullshit.

@joeinwynnewood @jeffcodes @QasimRashid

“There’s no candidate who ran who was more strongly identified with the working class of Pennsylvania than John Fetterman,” Sanders says.

Forward people, forward.

[lethe@mastodon.world]

@fylgja Democrats aren't left wing.

[fylgja@mastodon.social]

@lethe that's my point!
