Ah, forgot that one, good call.

Huh. Trying to think...Australia? Seems like there would've been one but I can't recall one. Ireland? Chile?

Hard agree. Ditch him, the 8 cavers, and anyone up in ‘26 who agreed with them didn’t want to actually cast the vote.

Not helping! The public blames Rs, let’s ride that instead of stomping on it, yeah?

5. Not my idea but I’m stealing it: screw it’s go all out. “We learned they were going to destroy the Epstein files so we had to act fast to ensure they’re preserved and released”.

True? False? Who cares, go for it. Play to win.

Riding* in back in point 3, dammit.

4. Alternate play: “we want to release the Epstein files and trump and Mike Johnson wanted to keep the government closed to protect pedophiles. We reopened the government to get the Epstein files out when republicans won’t.”

Honestly, go with that.

3. More people blame Rs, by a wide margin, so lean into that. Always note they could have ended this at any point on their own. Boom, now the Dems are the heroes, rising in to do what Rs wouldn’t.

2. Given that they did give in, the case now is “Rs want you to pay more for health insurance, and are willing to literally starve people to make that happen. We aren’t sociopaths so we’re voting to keep people from starving.”

Oh he’s retiring? Even better. Can he retire, like, tomorrow?

You or Lander gonna primary Schumer?

Someone’s gonna primary that loser and I can’t wait.
