No one who has ever made this argument has done so in good faith. It’s the single biggest tell that you’re dealing with a bad actor.

Again, one of the enduring problems in this discourse is the only people assuming the inevitability of Newsom are Newsom himself & the folks wanting to use him as a reason to be mad at Dems and/or to distract that even as opportunistic slime, he's STILL better on every policy than any possible GOPer

Back in 2020 I saw several prominent leftist commentators say that even though they considered Trump a fascist, if Bloomberg became the Dem nominee theyd sit it out and all I heard from that was "fascism isnt actually the dealbreaker for me I say it is"

people need to understand that, unless you think shutting down DHS (but with ICE/CBP continuing to function through reconciliation funding) is a win, the only legislative wins on the table are ones where Republicans join Dems

Yeah this also isn't exactly what it sounds like. The vast majority of deportations done under Clinton and Obama were catching people at the border. It wasn't storming into churches and deporting grandma's who have been here for 30 years with no record.
Hillary Clinton: "More people were deported under my husband and Barack Obama without killing American citizens and without putting children into detention camps than were in the first Trump term or this first year of Trump's second term."

Some folks would say this is all beside the point because we need different tactics to respond to a threat like this but these aren’t different tactics: they’re the threat itself.

It’s no different from Rod Blagojevich selling a senate seat. What did he do wrong if this is the model we expect our public servants to employ? And there’s a reason Trump pardoned Blagojevich: because he embodied that rot that too many are too quick to embrace.

There are extremely good reasons to want our public servants to act as stewards of our resources, including our information, and this frame, that they should take possession of it and use it to their political advantage, is fully Trumpist and fully depraved. (2/)

Since Tattoo Boy is in the news again, a reminder that the Nazi tattoo wasn't just a "Jolly Roger" pirate flag or some obscure symbol as Platner breezily shrugged it off. It wasn't the icon used for toxic/poisonous chemicals. It wasn't the logo of Yale University's "Scull & Bones" society. 1/
This is just an absolutely ridiculous piece of text. This writer ignores known evidence while bending over backwards to excuse Nazi symbols and racism.

The thing about all the Newsom posting is that people are giving themselves negative feelings about the party as a whole based on something at best hypothetical (more likely imaginary) and after the thing doesn’t come to pass, those negative feelings will remain, searching for justification.

I know this is my lonely drum to beat but it’s actually kind of pathetic to refer to anything on our side as “the Democratic Tea Party,” both because of what the Tea Party actually was and because if our best self-ID is “what the other guys called themselves except Democratic,” we’re cooked.
A base that has long made pragmatic, sober decisions appears increasingly attracted to charismatic outsiders who promise to break from the party’s failures of the last decade. They see their party’s leaders as feckless and inept.
