If I'm correct it's because Democratic electeds and consultants want to win by default, that is reach a political equilibrium in which the GOP are seen as too extreme to govern, and a plurality of voters have no choice but to elect Democrats. This results in sliding right and taking the temperature.

We all Stan that one Taylor Swift Stan account on Twitter that spent time in jail rather than join the IDF but we can't ask the same of American kids? At least in Israel joining up is mandatory! You literally volunteered for this! You were born as the Iraq war was starting, what did you expect!

If you know that you are only doing it because of intense pressure, and you go so far as to tell your mom about how bad it was, then you should have some courage and self respect and not do it. Otherwise you are a coward.

it's not as though "signing up for the military" didnt carry risks, you just thought they'd be mortal rather than moral

One month ago Mark Kelly voted to supply $900 billion to the Trump regime's war machine in exchange for segregation laws for trans people.
Mark Kelly puts out a statement saying "The President of the United States just overthrew a foreign ruler and explained to the American people that this is about taking control of the oil reserves of a foreign nation." This is probably the strongest statement alongside Gallego's I've read.

this is true and I am sorry about your mentions.
Democrat leaders on this platform want you to believe they are the party of resistance while supporting genocide, rubber stamping Trump's nominees, folding on trans rights, using far-right rhetoric about migrants, working with mass surveillance companies, getting mad they weren't in on a coup.

wasn't just him, every single statement opens with this, which merely concedes the point: making trump look strong and them look weak
Chuck Schumer, looking down over his glasses and grinning slightly, "of course we oppose the Maduro regime."

time to convene another inquest over why this guy is unpopular
Starmer asked to respond to Trump breaking international law and seizing the leader of another sovereign nation replies that it is his "responsibility" to have a good relationship with the US President.
"I have stepped up that responsibility [and] I do get on with President Trump," he tells the BBC

“The problem here is that he didn’t follow the rules” is the only argument you can really make when almost no one in your coalition is anti-war in any meaningful sense.

the reason they don’t bother to manufacture the consent beforehand is that everyone just sort of does it for them post-facto now

if you are talking today about how bad maduro was and were alive, at all, during the run-up to the iraq war you are potentially the dumbest person to ever live

Fully at a loss here.
Trump just announces the US will be running Venezuela now, until the can do a "safe, proper, and judicious" transfer of power. Announcing an occupation before you've occupied a country is a new one.

Trump is immune from all prosecution and yet anyone in the world can be subjected to the jurisdiction of the United States at any moment. If it wasn't already clear, the supposed "rights" of the liberal democratic order concern only the right the dominate at will.

I'll spell it out: Offering that Maduro is bad but the strikes and kidnappings violated legal procedure, is discursively like closing the back door to Trump while opening the front door. You concede the moral case, and offer a legal one that nobody without a lanyard knows of or gives a shit about.
"Maduro was bad, but" shut the fuck up, you people will never learn.

"Maduro is a brutal authoritarian dictator," I wisely intone, as the corrupt demented paedophile US President violating Constitutional Law while operating a gestapo and concentration camps illegally arrests a foreign leader on charges which read like they were written on a paper placemat in crayon.

Whether it's destroying a nation or murdering a Black person, all the US government has to do to quiet 90% of liberals opposition is to say their victim was a bad guy.

That was the literal pitch: Knock this country over and I will roll over the corpse and let international capital pick it clean. And I will restore respect for the rule of law and human rights – by partnering with Gulf States
