Real liberalism has never been tried

@RonDeSantis Grand bargain. Force California to learn to count, and we get democracy

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@LordMudkip73 @KareemRifai 1. I agree it’s the perception that matters. And AOC is viewed as very left to the public.

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@LordMudkip73 @KareemRifai It’s not fair to compare one very left wing district to national elections. I’m sure a lot of people are AOC‘s district didn’t vote for Harris because of Gaza. But they are a tiny minority compared to the country at large

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@FrostyCocoSteve @KareemRifai Yeah probably, but they’d say the same about AOC run a progressive if you want but pick someone with centrist aesthetics

Post pandemic, states saw inflation of only .3% for every 10% increase in minimum wage

Hard to say what the pattern is here

@BoringIsTheEdge @KareemRifai Talarico overperformed. But El sayed underperformed the environment by 6 points. In a 2024 environment he would have lost by more than harris

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@RonDeSantis It’s winter and they have to fly in votes from places in the arctic with no roads

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@MelonsMoon @KareemRifai Public option is not the progressive plan. He doesn’t support M4A

@Rep_Stansbury @EmmaVigeland If I missed work as much as our representatives I’d get fired.

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@MelonsMoon @KareemRifai Yeah, but he walked back all that stuff

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@EllForeboding @KareemRifai I can get behind progressives with centrist aesthetics

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@MelonsMoon @KareemRifai They’re both pretty moderate but I get your point. It’s the perception that matters. Harris was fairly moderate as well but that’s didn’t save her from the perception that she was far left.

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@Agapiy_ @KareemRifai Yeah she has been a lot more reasonable recently. But the socialist perception is already baked in. Everybody knows AOCs ideology.

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@EllForeboding @KareemRifai if Adam Hamilton is your definition of a Progressive, I’m all for running progressives.

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@EllForeboding @KareemRifai She was your one example of a leftist over-performing, And she didn’t…Both top of ticket candidates in Florida underperformed the national environment.

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@AezzieUwU They’re not getting 20 republican senators to convict. They have a much better chance convincing 11 republicans in January

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@uniquentcrazy @KareemRifai The public viewed her as more radical than Trump. I imagine a lot of that had to do with her being a black woman, but they did view her as far left.

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@EllForeboding @KareemRifai I voted for Nixon! But our moderate governor candidate did outperform her.

[a.a.⚜️🇺🇸 @regularhuman0]

@EllForeboding @KareemRifai I like him
