    I’m not allowed to post things from the candidate’s own blog. I’m not allowed to post articles from 2019, but what about this?

    Her reversal is not ok and we should be allowed to discuss it.

      I want it, but I’m willing to wait a while longer in exchange for freedom now. Bigger problems to work on with Project 2025. I got a preteen niece that cannot grow up in that kind of world. And couchfucker needs to go away.

        OP posted a similar article a few minutes ago, and I will say again they’re like MAGA and are using anything and everything to kill the momentum.

          I am not a MAGA person and I am only one person. If the candidate were consistent then she wouldn’t have this problem.

                You should be interested in both how it should work, and how it DOES work, because you’ll never win if you don’t learn how to play the game.

                I’m going to try to be nice here and say I don’t think throwing ‘MAGA’ around is helpful unless it’s clear you deserve it, but I don’t know how theprogressivist has interacted with you in the past, so I can’t speak for them, just for me. If your goal is to hold the Dems’ feet to the fire, I’m here for that. I think you need to be realistic and accept the fact that you can’t win America on a straight Liberal platform with all the fear-mongering Team Red has put on that word.

                Right now, I have but one thing on my mind – Trump must not win in November. Once we deal with him, we can start pushing our own side, for sure, but we need to come together during election season and kick the Alt-Right to the curb. Project 2025 waits if we falter.

      The headline saying progressives are ok with it is bullshit.

      But if stupid headlines broke any rules, there’d be a lot less posts here.

      This one will likely stay up

        That’s the headline from the article and I’m not allowed to change it. I ended up having to copy paste it as the automatic import did not work, so I suppose the title tag could be different. I can’t quite tell on my phone.

          Nah. I meant it’s not your fault it’s a dumb headline, it’s the journalist/editor who picked it.

          I should have explicitly said that to be clear tho considering how much hassle you’ve went thru to get a post in

              My preconceived notion is that people should fight for the things they believe in and not just shift their beliefs because the money said so. Strange, I know.

                My preconceived notion is that people shouldn’t amplify misleading headlines. That goes doubly for people who criticize misleading headlines when the shoe is on the other foot.

                  It’s not misleading if I provide a date in the body, one is provided in the article/blog and the candidate totally said all of that. I’m not allowed to change the title, so how am I otherwise supposed to compensate for a lack of reading comprehension?

                    I wasn’t responding to you, so not sure why you feel like I’m criticizing your submission.
