"the anti-ice movement"

the fucking anti-ice movement is sharon who has been a girl scout leader for 27 and phang li who carpools your kids to t-ball and James the guy from the deli who was apolitical until he watched ICE beat his buddy for looking brown

And this is also why, I think, it is one of the oldest tricks of some of these hacks: I want to, but we need to think about the voters in Allentown, and that’s why we need to dial back all this talk of reform. And I sigh every time I see it coming.

Because there are dozens of millions of eligible people who don’t vote in this country who don’t get anywhere near the political attention as a hypothetical swing voter from Allentown PA. As a matter of political and cultural representation: that sucks for a lot of us.

That’s fair. Fwiw I was thinking in mostly of the presidency, and being a bit glib. In local races there may be all sorts of reasons to ‘go for the two for one’. But as national strategy it seems representative of the party’s failures, even in the face of an extremely unpalatable alternative.
