A lesson in where political power really lies in America
Robert Reich is a Professor, writer, former Secretary of Labor, author of The System, The Common Good, Saving Capitalism, Aftershock, Supercapitalism, The Work of Nations. Co-creator of “Inequality for All” and “Saving Capitalism.” Co-founder of Inequality Media
Republicans, corporate democrats, Russians and naive people who expect perfection without pushing for ranked choice.
Simply false. Republicans want Biden to stay in.
The same group who wrote the Project 2025 is looking to legal mechanisms to prevent Democrats from replacing Biden.

So if you are advocating to keep Biden as nominee, you must accept the Heritage Foundation as bedfellow.

We should allow that to be determined at the convention.
Btw do you get checks from the Heritage Foundation for the constant trolling* you do?

No, Biden is not the same asshole he was even 12 months ago. 12 months ago he had gotten infrastructure done and was moving on to student loan forgiveness, hadn’t bombed thousands of children into their graves, hadn’t advocated for the most draconian border policy of all time, and could remember the beginnings of the sentences he was supposed to be finishing.
Biden isn’t the same person he once was. Also, since you acknowledge that you are intentionally in clear violation of Rule 4, @[email protected] .

Which convention? The one that “unfairly” nominated Hillary? The convention that nominated Biden?
Bottom line is that “conventions” will not satisfy folks who don’t care and don’t take the effort to understand. The checks from the heritage foundation appear to only perpetuate crap like you mention…
You ain’t pulling any MAGA supporters off Trump no matter what you do so why try? A Harris / Ocasio-Cortez ticket would energize the Dem base, drag Progressives in by the train load, pull over all the Dem leaning Independents and almost certainly more than a few of the “We want political change!” people.
It would also result in heart attacks for double digit percentage of MAGA people and they can’t vote if they have passed into the great beyond.
Aside from the funny it’s also a balanced ticket with Kamala “The Understudy” Harris on top and Alexandria “The Squad” Ocasio-Cortez present but without any real power as the VP.
Then have them get out there and swing for the fences. Harris can be the calm one while AOC can get all fiery and tirade on everything. It would be a great time!
I don’t swing their way politically but I’d honestly vote for that ticket ahead of anything else that’s probably going to be on there. Trump is a total non-starter for me, the Libertarians have gone loony, and no one else has any chance at all of being elected.
Hexbears, “communists,” genocidejoers
Ah yes, George Clooney. Known hexbear enthusiast, only incidentally responsible for Biden’s (possibly anyone’s?) largest single night fundraising ever.
I’m gonna need a source on that Clooney hexbear thing.
Just accept it as Head Canon.
Some people call it delusion… I would pay good money to hear George Clooney going on and on about being a fake communist.
The article doesn’t mention any of those though.
It mentions corporate Democrats. It calls them the major donors
Corporate Democrat, George Clooney.
