Domestic LBJ 👍🏽. Wars are bad. YIMBY 👍🏽. I root for a train wreck in every winnable GOP primary. Long suffering San Diego Chargers fan ⚡. Pakistan Cricket fan.
It is astonishing that a man who hates the poor gets to cosplay as the man of the people.

A complete farce.

That's fine. The entire point of the shutdown was to create awareness that the Republicans are going to raise ACA premiums. As long as premiums are hiked and the people know who's responsible for the hike, it's a win.

See, they're just afraid of the unknown. They're fundamentally unsuited for this era. Afraid of the shadows.

MSNBC reported Schumer's office felt that the longer that shutdown went on, the more likely it was that people would start to blame the Dems.

My kingdom for Democrats that don't govern out of fear. I've said it before and I'll say it again: The American people are far braver than their reps.

lol Trump felt the heat. Govt funding runs out in January. We might be here all over again.

I'm in agreement, just don't think they had to surrender the same week as a wave election. They're afraid of what the future holds. Afraid of being blamed for the Thanksgiving shit show. They're fundamentally moderate ppl with no spine. These people would've never held open a Senate seat for a year.

*to ask for more.

I don't know but it would've required more coalition management than these guys are comfortable with.
November 10, 2025 at 3:22 PM
The entire point of this fight should've been to pass for more than the GOP would've given, wait till the premiums hike, point the finger at the GOP and then try to flip the Senate.

By surrendering now rather than later, doesn't it kinda muddy the pool?

Remember, the McConnell theory of being in the minority is to become the majority. Democrats had to treat this like a campaign issue because it is. Hold out for the ACA funding. Hold out for months. When premiums skyrocket, you blame the GOP and get ready to flip the Senate.

The end.

Giving Jon Ossoff a pass,. primary every single one of these people in 2026.

- Get Pressley into the Mass Senate race.
- Get anybody (!) better than Booker.
- Mark Warner needs to go. His VA buddy voted to spare him.
- Send Jack Reed into retirement.
- Say no to Coons.
