it's hard to view a lot of the Democrats moves as a party as anything other than an attempt to fully divorce the left and to court any lingering white male populist types with squishy morals and values. they are not trying to appeal to the masses, they're trying to choose their own electorate.

“President Trump’s dispute with the Pope takes its theological underpinning from Martin Luther’s 95 Theses.”

Amazing that in the national divorce the libs are getting the NFL, butter and cooking oil, being attracted to adult women, standup comedy, Bud Light, and now also Catholicism

Orbánism was, more or less, a model for what Trump and the Republican Party are trying to do in the United States. The Trump administration was so desperate to prevent Orbán’s defeat that it sent J. D. Vance to ask Hungarians to “stand for Western civilization” and “freedom, for truth and for the God of our fathers.” Few vice presidents have more consistently debased the office, to the point that most people hardly noticed that Vance had praised as godly a man who publicly condemned “race mixing.”

It's not the MOST pathetic thing Vance has done, but him going to Hungary to applaud man who condemned "race mixing" is absolutely wretched (🎁) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

I know exactly one person, out of a lot of leftists angry about Gaza, who abstained from voting, and the empirical evidence says that Kamala fell short with men near the center of the spectrum, not the left. So if you're annoyed at Gaza abstainers you've got the wrong bogeyman.

Ask Lutnick how many tax breaks his companies have gotten from the federal government, how many exemptions he personally gets, whether he has ever benefited from the carried interest loophole. Then ask him how much money a single mom working 2 minimum wage jobs gets from SNAP if she has 3 kids.

Also, it wasn't just leftists who are angry about Gaza. A majority of Americans (including Republicans!) disapprove of Israel's actions there, and increasingly, they disapprove of the US funding it

That is not my experience, and I've worked with DSA candidates. I think you are confusing a handful of loud dudes on bluesky with leftists at large.

You are operating on vibes, not facts. I encourage you to actually pay attention to what the mayor's office is actually doing, and what Mamdani is saying, and not just disappointment from centrists who don't like his tax plans.

Well, then you haven't paid attention to anything he's said or done about either. This was literally one of the FIRST things he did: impactpolicies.org/news/740/mam...

Again, that sounds like a you problem. I'm around leftists all the time and every single one of them cares about those things.

Your lived experience is a reflection of your personal environment and your personal social circle etc. It is anecdata not empirical evidence of how an entire swath of the electorate votes and not generalizable in that sense.

Apparently you don't know any leftists. You might want check out our current mayor who cares about all of those things and won his election against a centrist candidate.

Without progressive support no Dem wins an election, even in purple and lean R areas. They're not a tiny minority.

90 percent of unwavering Sanders supporters plan to vote for Clinton in November The Democratic convention is chaotic. The Democratic base isn't.

Well that's because you pay the most attention to leftists you don't like who happen to very loud here's the data. And this is considering the fact that about 12 percent of Bernie supporters were adamantly not Dems to begin with: www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix...

That would be a stupid wildly data free assumption given how the progressive vote has shifted the last few elections and how persistently they vote no blue no matter who.

I have never met or worked with a centrist afraid of alienating a leftist voter. If anything they assume those people are locked in because what are they gonna do, vote Republican?

Classic use of rotating villains, and this should be the epitaph for Golden’s career. Pathetic and shameful work by every single R, and by Dems too. If it hadn’t been Golden it would have been MGP or someone else.

It's not about looking put together. It's that that side of him was one very few people saw, including some of his closest friends.

Also, pretty presumptuous to assume that someone who has written extensively about sexual assault, misogyny, and power (and was raped in college and has written about that too) has a *hot* take on the issue. Ma'am or sir, I have been thinking about these things SINCE college

This is not a hot take, nor is it name dropping. (I knew him, ffs!)
