How come every week I see a report that Trump's approval has hit a new low, even though it's the same number every week?

Notice Mamdani charmed Trump on live TV without backing down on any stances. He didn't water himself down, he didn't even take back calling Trump a fascist. Moderates would say butter him up, or try to appear more right-wing. Voters can see through that—and evidently so does he!

Since Trump’s ‘ceasefire’, Israel killed 900 Palestinians in Gaza. In the West Bank, 691 Palestinians were kidnapped during 1,503 invasions. If the victims had been Israelis, the Western media would have been (rightly) protesting these pogroms. Now? A guilty silence prevails...

Kurt Vonnegut famously wrote that Armistice Day was sacred to him, but Veterans' Day was meaningless.
Americans glorify war, and are one of the most combative nations in the modern world (look at our "defense" budget as proof).

I think tonight shows why “moderate to win elections” is a real risk
the big divide in the Dem caucus, as many have noted, has been less moderate vs progressive than fight versus don’t fight
but it’s not a coincidence that basically everyone in the “don’t fight” camp is a moderate

Democrats Can't Blame Trans People for Their Own Failures
Despite the attempts by so many in the party's establishment to paint trans rights as a toxic issue, transphobia was soundly rejected across the country this week.

The new governor elect of Virginia is a conservative Democrat, who bad mouthed the Mayor Elect of New York, and believes the only way for Democrats to win is to be more like republicans. That thinking may work in the capital of the confederacy, but not everywhere else.

Imagine struggling to decide to who to vote for between a serial sexual assaulter and some guy that wants to give families free childcare, and that your hesitation is due to your support for an apartheid European-pseudo state committing genocide in the Middle East.

After accounting for money and incumbency the supposed electoral bonus for moderate candidates vanishes entirely.
