If we're calling candidates like O'Rourke and Gillum progressive, than the definition has been totally diluted by the mainstream. Which is just what they've been trying to do for three or four years now. Pretty depressing.
Nancy Pelosi needs to retire! who votes for this relic? It is about time for Native American women were elected!
“We will strive for bipartisanship”
Washington DC-code for “red or blue…we answer to the same donors, wich shouldn’t fear for their interests”.
So much for the “takeover “ of the DNC…if fossils like Feinstein and Pellosi stay in their seat and even a plain out criminal like Debbie Wasserman Shultz manages to beat Tim Cannova because of the limitless financial leverage she can work with….you know you’re far from home. Let’s just wait and see what the elected justice democrats are able to do in the House and within the structures of the DNC….maybe they can find some holes in the wall, here and there, to break into the Party-system. If not…a third party will be inevitable.
Under the current circumstances the democrats can not go to 2020 in the hope to win….Joe Biden, Kirsten Gillibrand, Cory Booker, Kamala Harris….and of course the queen of defeat herself, Hillary Clinton (who recently expressed her continuing desire to become President)…none of these corporate tools can win in 2020.
Either the DNC goes, wholeheartedly, for Bernie and Tulsi Gabbard, or a similar combination….or the justice democrats have to pack up their stuff, leave the DNC-brothel and unite with green and all kinds of progressive, independent movements to go to 2020 with a real populist alternative that can beat Trump.
These midterms bring us a mixed message: a number of justice democrats made their way into the House, a disappointing number of corporate power-brokers stay in control…and the Republicans didn’t get blown away, like some daydreamers have been shouting for some time now.
All in all we better come to terms, right now, with the fact that Trump will be a force to reckon with in 2020….and just like in 2016 he might get victory handed to him by the stubborn democrats that, with suicidal discipline, hold on to the corporate script.
Andrew Gillium is not a Progressive. He supported ACA over Medicare-For-All. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez bends the knee to Nancy Pelosi and the Neoliberal bunch.
TheRealNews your segment on B Jealous was way too short. He deserves more time plus where…… are you headquartered.
Very 😢 about Ben Jealous
Why's this guy whispering?
Becoming clear that nothing short of revolution will turn this ship around.
We don't have to steer clear of the iceberg this time because they are all melting.
So the blue republicans won the house and the red republicans retain senate. Fantastic.
A lost of these people were not progressives and were against Medicare for all including Gillum and Beto.
Too bad that the neoliberal identity politics shit party didn't lose more seats. The left needs to clean up its shit before it becomes voting for again. As long as it pushes for open borders and the EU I will continue to rather vote nationalist whenever I can.
Democrats are NOT EFFIN progressives. They are just establishment whores
Need better grafts.
Democrats providing a check in the house. Ha! That is a laugh. We need a third party.
con don is SOL, lulz
Why does each analysis of the midterm race have to be preceded by "racist" when describing republicans who won their seats? Very odd.
'We will have accountability' translation: we will bitch and make demands on others that we will call discrimination when we are held to the same standard.
Filling up the swamp again…
Nancy Pelosi is such a loser. With Nancy at the helm of the DNC there'll be no checking the rampaging GOP. She's and the rest of the DNC elite are one big bucket of failure.
election fraud
When Pelosi vows bi-partisanship, she’s really just confirming Democrats will continue to hold the sheet-music for Nero 💩
Maryland is a neoliberal state and the fact that Dummiecrats supported Hogan proves this true!!!,
Northrop Grumman won.
The common denominator between UK & US…Lots of politically ignorant narcissists who vote with hate & anger. Trump & his idiotic followers should all be walled up!
Now the wars will end, they will stop the 700 billion dollar ndaa bill and then pass Medicare for all!
El Trumpy has already 'Wrung' Nancy Peelosi like a used rag.
Good thing Democrats won the house!
