The far left is composed of a bunch of rich kids cosplaying as the working class, Platner included. It works as a message with other cosplayers and that's about it.
Platner needs to stop saying weird stuff about revolutions and oligarchy and just campaign exclusively as a check on on the out of control Trump administration.
@d_h_sanders And Trump always had a corrupt court to block any consequences. It doesn't matter who the AG was, SCOTUS was always going to bail him out.
Sara needs to reach out to the Texas Democratic Party, TX State House Dems caucus and ask about their efforts and plans to support state house races. As for volunteers, is the campaign coordinating with county parties? Parties don’t raise money for candidates… candidates have to do the bulk of that work. I didn’t get a dime from the DSCC until after my campaign started to take off and polls so it was possibly competitive. But, I’m told there will be a robust TX coordinated campaign pushing Democrats to vote for the ticket across the state, which should include Democrats in her district. When I ran in ‘20 I donated millions from my campaign to support my down ballot democrats. Has she asked the top of the ticket to do similar to support state house races? But if she is using the voter file… millions are spent to keep that updated, to buy models, emails and phone #s…. When Election Day comes millions will be spent on voter protection efforts that supports her race and others.
@NickyFrank30 This seems to be the opposite of what a lot of DSA folks have been saying. They've been complaining that Dems are too anti-Trump and they need to offer something else. They don't have a coherent strategy.
@two_plus_twins@josecanyousee@SamForstag Platner has no record and has professed some pretty right-wing views in the past. He was also a GOP voter. Is that what you call progressive?
It takes 1.28 seconds for a message to reach us from the Moon.
It takes as little as 35 minutes from Jupiter.
It takes as little as 4.5 hours from Pluto.
It takes at least 6-12 months from NYT reporters, plus $30 for the book containing it.
@groove_sdc Apparently DSA is afraid to cross Mamdani. Mamdani did back increasing the police force, something they say they're against and they're silent on it.
Platner perpetuates the falsehood that Obama had the votes to codify Roe (which he oddly refers to as…Wade, the name of the male DA in the case).
Dude is truly dumb.
@NickAPappas@TheTNHoller@Timodc Right like passing a bigger reform wouldn't just be chipped away and overturned by a right-wing court? Like what fantasy world do you guys live in?
