Feel free to add on and pass it around. There's like 180 million women in this country and we only need to radicalize thirty or forty thousand of them.
Not only is Manchin dirty - I bet his daughter is even worse. She's the reason Epipens are insanely expensive - just for starters.
I would add he certainly is ideologically brainwashed. He won't just cancel student debt in a simple fashion with an executive order - his brain is thoroughly ruined by ideology. If he does anything on that - it will be a confusing, idiotic mess with endless paperwork and loads of means testing. And I assume he actually thinks of cannabis as a "gateway drug". So an EO for that is an impossibility.
I felt so stupid last year when I finally realized the dems had begun starting to ignore that and with all their might pretending it didn't actually happen. They have world-class levels of denial. They seem to have no evolutionary instinct for self-preservation. It's shocking and fascinating.
I want to gleefully say I want the dems to lose ~80 seats in the house and a bunch of senate seats. But - of course - that's a new more horrible nightmare. The dems would flail around in total panic like a chicken without a head and then they'd make a huge lurch to the right in a moronic effort to stay alive.
Yeah. It's a great time for a revolution, it's just not gonna be our revolution. Which is very very bad.
