Idk what is most surprising here:
- he hasn’t gotten it covered (apparently had since 2006)
- this made it through the pod save edit to be shown on their video
- pod save had him on
Wonder what the excuses will be this time on why it’s okay he’s still in the race as if he wins probably will be another fetterman.
Or maybe I’m so conspiracy brained I wonder if this is a way to make the ancient governor running look like the best candidate
the entire thing putting the cart before the horse. We don’t need a “real leftist” to emerge within the Democrats for the DSA and all the squishies to voooooote for and save us. This is just a fundamental misunderstanding of socialism and politics and power.
We need to establish a disciplined workers party, and we will create our own candidates who are accountable to us. The “real leftists” won’t appear out of nowhere and get endorsed by DSA, they won’t exist until the party apparatus to create them exists
Oh yeah, I fully agree. Take my analogy and run it’s full course - once you start vetting romantic partners, you stop expecting “the one” to just magically appear, you start building the kind of life that attracts the partner you want.
Unfortunately Americans are also very lazy, so it’s a very slow process to move from waiting and hoping that someone else just steps up and does everything, to actually just doing it.
