I don’t need to read to hear suppositions of the uninformed. I read to learn the facts, not the spin.

Marcy Wheeler is using Fox Propaganda Channel level spin to defend Garland who was the wrong man for the job.

Thanks for supplying your opinion but it’s a little difficult to fact check.

The USA is Tombstone; MAGA is the Cowboys gang: the Democrats are Sheriff Behan.

The first letter of MAGA is M. The first letter of MORON is M. Very logical.

The first letter of TRUMP is T. The first letter of TRASH is T. Once again very logical.

Could the results that you list in your summary possibly surprise anyone?
I suggest a new poll, a very small one. News organizations, Reuters or others, could poll the leaders of the Democratic National Committee, read off each of your three sentences, and ask them if they are shocked by any of it, if they were totally surprised, and ask them what they think should be done.


Trump is a catastrophe. My country has become a sick joke. That's obvious, but so far not enough. We need a vibrant Democratic Party.

Biden and Schumer live in the past. New blood is indeed needed.

President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. has bombed Iran on behalf of Israel and that "now is the time for peace."

I agree with you.

However, the primary "culprit" for this situation is always identified to be 'The MAGA Voter' by influencers & pundits. A similar sentiment can be observed within this thread too. "It's the idiot MAGA voter, stupid!" is an oft-repeated observation here.

As long as YOU the Dem voters do not call out the ineptitude of your own Party Leadership, these leaders do not need to restructure or reformulate goals in order to win your votes. To them, your votes are already in the bag. Their attention is entirely on the Billionaire class who feed them the $$$s needed to win.
