    I got a fiver that says he has to try to walk this back when he runs “the most progressive campaign in us history” in 2028.

    I mean, how lucky are we? Hillary, Biden, Kamala, all with “the most progressive platform” ever!

      And before that, Obama, Kerry, and if I remember right even fucking Gore were all accused of being the most radical left Presidential candidates in American history.

      Funny how the Democratic Party keeps running more and more progressive candidates - both the Republicans and Democrats say they’re doing it, so it must be true - and yet the Democratic Party keeps moving more and more to the right.

      What’s “progressive” about ignoring 999,999,999 dollars? Focusing on an arbitrary number isn’t smart.
