Does she realize running for president means actual attention and scrutiny? She only had "cred" with people who knew nothing about her other than she praised Bernie or something.
lol
Hopefully being exposed during the primaries also ruins her political career altogether.
Never forget that the likes of Cenk and Kyle Kulinski gave her shitty views cover when she broke away from the DNC.
If she resigns from her seat to campaign then I'm all for this failed campaign.
Which is more worthy of being called the Progressive Dream Ticket? Gabbard/Ojeda or Ojeda/Gabbard?
I mean, straight or gay, we dudes have a pretty shitty track record overall you gotta admit.
Old people who arent directly affected by the shut down in SC must be bugging him.
They can reopen the government and stop getting shit on for the moment if he does the emergency shit.
Lindsay wants him to declare the emergency to stop further damage for Republicans. That's it.
no reason to have a person with a history of homophobic public statements sitting in a safe blue seat if we can avoid it.
or a history of flying around the world to chill with a dictator.
I'm against throwing an entire marginalized community under the bus because someone had bad dating experiences.
I think gay men who don't engage with their own privilege are a real problem and deserve criticism.
I also think we do ourselves a disservice as a community to shit on an entire group of people in the way that post did. We wouldn't allow it for lesbians, we wouldn't allow it for trans people, we wouldn't allow it for black people, we shouldn't allow it for gay men.
Please don't weaponize outing people without their permission, no matter how reprehensible or hypocritical they may be. That's not your call to make.
She's a pro-Assad bigot and a "centrist" (read: conservative that is a Democrat because Republicans don't win in Hawaii).

This may help.
In short, she supports some progressive policies, but she seems to looooove far right foreign dictators and really hate LGBT people.
She's a horrible person in a safe blue seat with a history of homophobic, Islamophobic comments who only runs as a Democrat because Republicans can't win a chili cook-off in Hawaii.
I don't agree. If someone is a private citizen, that's one thing. If someone is a politician or media figure advancing an anti-gay agenda it's an entirely other. In fact, it's a moral obligation to out those people.
How I see it gay republicans didn't do crap to change anything in the party. The evangelicals are the ones that dictate the party's policy when it comes to social issues. If the Republicans had to choose with the 'gay right' and evangelicals they will choose the evangelicals everytime in a heartbeat.
You know, something about Lindsays abrupt turn to loving Trump can be explained a hundred ways. However, its stuff like this that almost has me thinking he wants Trump to do this stuff because he knows it will actually hurt him. Maybe his best friend McCain told him to get in Trumps good graces and sabotage him from within. Maybe Graham was a double agent all this time. I'm 99.9% sure Graham is not as noble as that, and just wants to keep his senate seat, but it would make a fascinating bit of history.
We had a nice field of canidates for the maryland Governor's seat and Ben Jealous came in and split it enough for him to win the majority and get the nomination but because he knows nothing about the state of Maryland he then preceded to fuck up the governors run because he displayed a horrendous lack of knowledge about Maryland culture and how it functions.
I still blame The Local DSA for smearing the Indian Michael Obama alum to drop her points in the race enough for Ben to be teh clear winner.
I hate to give Graham any credit about anything ever. BUT I think the reason why he's swerved so hard into the "Declare a National Emergency NOW" stance after trying to find some middle ground is because he sees it as the only way Trump will allow the Senate to vote to reopen the government. If he can get through the the worms in Trumps brain that he can steal the money he wants from the Army then maybe he'll just let Congress pass a bill without Wall funding.
It's quite obviously political theatre, and I'm wondering why he feels the need to do it.
He must know that he has no influence on the president. Less than zero. Does he want to look like he's attached to this if Trump does indeed make this an emergency?
One of the most giving, generous persons I've ever met was a gay white man. I think it's best we don't stereotype a large group of people.
Lawrence O'Donnell thinks he's afraid of getting primaried?
This is her fight song.
Here, from the announcement thread: https://www.resetera.com/threads/di...loha-to-presidential-run.92918/#post-16782524
Pretty much. Republicans don't want this shutdown because it'll get bad for them the longer it goes, but they can't go against Trump because their primary opponent will bring it up in elections.
Straight people can be Democrats, regardless of what this thread would indicate.
