@JimmyElleDee@_giacomo_volpe_ Your view of “Best Qualified” is whoever’s served more time and waited their turn. Voters are less and less interested in your definition and that’s something you have to grapple with. You also need to understand it’s an election Mamdani did not appoint Valdez or Dac
@NYCPublicPolicy@JAllen_NYC Try and adjust your brain to understand the concept of finite resources and time. The Dsa does not have the resources to aggressively primary every single candidate they dislike.
You need a legitimately compleing candidate to unseat incumbents. They did not have that
@JimmyElleDee@_giacomo_volpe_ Hyper fixation on experience and time served as pre requisites to hold elected office died in 2016.
Dead ideology people no longer cares about who’s spot in line they are taking
@CatherineM0yim@sonofmalachy5@magi_jay It’s so hilarious to talk about rich white young people unfairly tainting the result when Reysnos best voting demographic was a sect of Orthodox Jews who are decidedly not a fixture of the community. If that group was not in the district he may have lost by 40.
@BarryMcOnHere@BasedIllinoisan The point of THEESE challengers and these districts was to reflect what democrats in the districts actually want. No one is clamming THEESE 3 inner city New York seats will decide the majority one way or the other it was about pushing the reps in THEESE seats left
@ayaankaran_@alt_ccc If you consider the southern Dixiecrats to be their own distinctly racist poltical entity then this point lands softer. Northern and western democrats were functionally different
@desmondd1984@ErikAndThoughts@ClistonBrown If your argument is the Tattoo shows horrible judgement or understanding of Histpry then that’s one thing and you can oppose him on that grounds but everyone on this side of twitter is arguing he’s a real life actual Nazi which is the outlandish idea people take offense to
@NYKnicksPodcast@StoolCave@barstoolsports I want you to watch every shot he took last night 80 percent of them his goal was to get into the kid range and throw his head back and jump to initiate contact. Even on the Posseions he didn’t get to shoot free throws he tried to bait his defender in same exact spots
@davidcrockett08@bdquinn Talking about the success of government programs putting people who didn’t have means to work is not right wing it’s just good messaging. The goal should be jobs for everyone
@oneandonlyrad@ElectionCenter_ You are being dense the entire campaign was national fairness is response to Florida,Texas and Missouri making plans to kill dem seats. No one said it was a fair map but it helped restore national fairness at large
@JR4484@Tumlaren160545@RichardHanania This is hilarious framing. Theese southern states are 30 percent or more black. However Republicans in thoose states can just draw convoluted maps to ensure black voters are the majority in no districts. Meaning 30 percent of the population has no congressional representation
@Jennyil@carly_dani_ Stratton was the only person polling high enough to be a real progressive option hence why she got the progressive endorsement. And of the candidates in the congressional race with a chance bliss was the favorite and second most progressive option.
