    Explain that last part to me. Not trying to be a dick, just seriously wondering how you came to that conclusion. Unless you’re just being sarcastic, which I’m not getting. Cause I also disagree with you on Dean Phillips, though I wouldn’t even entertain listening to a reasoning on that one.

      Unless you’re just being sarcastic

      I’m being sarcastic.

      Neoliberals lose and it’s because leftists didn’t show up and vote for the right person.

      Progressives win and it’s because leftists did show up and voted for the wrong person.

      Cause I also disagree with you on Dean Phillips

      He was an awful nobody who ran a vanity campaign that flamed out before New Hampshire polls closed. Still somehow more qualified than Biden, given that he wasn’t senile.

      I’m more just flabbergasted that Biden insisted he could go all the way back in '23, closed out any serious discussion of a primary, and then dropped out after the first fucking debate. Had he put in for retirement after one term, he could at least have left the stage honorable. Instead, he queued up Harris - and the rest of the party - for crushing defeat.
