In swing states the progressives supporting medicare for all won their races and the centrists that didn't support it lost but it's the progressives fault the centrists lost and the problem was the progressives policy?

I have a hard time believing these people actually think this, they know it's false but as you said they want to keep their power and paycheck safe at the expense of the people so will lies to do it.

It's more than unacceptable, it's vile and corrupt because they have no problem shamelessly smearing progressives for unapologetically wanting to help people.

Two of the major attacks used against the dems was defund the police and packing the courts. Remind me again, who's positions were those?

Both sides **** up. It's disingenuous for either side to be playing the victim.


As soon as you can show quotes or links to their stated platforms of those incumbents who lost while supporting those policies then you will have your answer until then it's complete bullisht to claim that's the reason who didn't run on it lost because of it.
If you'd rather see your team fail so you can be right

Well then that means that everything you stated in this thread is bull as well since you have yet to have shown one piece of evidence backing up anything you say.

Which races and states were this? Correlation does not equal causation. And there’s a huge difference between a safe Dem seat in a swing state or red state and a competitive race in a Republican district. Can you list out the races for us?

Here we go...

Trump campaign planning
messaging blitz to fuel
unsupported election questions


(CNN)President Donald Trump's campaign is planning a messaging blitz to fuel its argument -- unsupported by any evidence to date -- that the President's second term is being stolen from him through corrupt vote counts in battleground states, three sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

One of the ways it plans to do that is presenting obituaries of people the campaign will claim voted in the election and considering having campaign-style rallies to amplify the message, according to two of the sources.

So far, the litigation put forward by the campaign has not included any proof to support allegations of widespread fraud. And nothing campaign officials have put forward would change the outcome in any state.
But the President is being urged by his son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner, attorney Rudy Giuliani and campaign adviser Jason Miller to hold rallies throughout the US pushing for recounts of votes, sources close to Trump told Jake Tapper. Kushner did not offer a comment on this story. Miller denied the story in a tweet.

I'd be happy to see him accept reality. However, I couldn't care less if Trump "concedes." Nobody in America has to "concede" when they're fired. They just need to get out. And that's exactly what he will need to do by 11:59am on January 20th. :lol:

BREAKING NEWS: HUD Secretary Dr. Ben Carson tests positive for COVID-19

Ben Carson, the secretary of Housing and Urban Development, has tested positive for the novel coronavirus, ABC News' Katherine Faulders reported.

"His deputy chief of staff says he's 'in good spirits & feels fortunate to have access to effective therapeutics which aid and markedly speed his recovery,'" Faulders tweeted. "Carson attended the election night party at the White House."

The White House chief of staff, Mark Meadows, told associates last Wednesday that he tested positive for COVID-19. Meadows also attended the election night watch party the night before, The New York Times reported.

The election night party featured little social distancing and almost no masks, and with Meadows, Carson, and a number of undisclosed White House staff testing positive, the event has invited sharp scrutiny, particularly given the White House's refusal to disclose who has been infected.

After you retire this thread, start a temporary one a week or two before the run-off vote in GA and let that run until the votes are finalized.

That would be a fitting conclusion to this process IMO


"Retire this thread"?

Copied comment:

"I just made the mistake of watching Fox News for a few minutes. Here’s what I learned: 1) Counting votes is unconstitutional. 2) State governments have been overthrown. 3) AOC is President. No wonder the people who watch this channel end up voting for psychopaths."
