Barack saved the auto industry with a strong assist from VP Biden

Nobody else on the ticket can match Biden's record of support.

Congresspeople don't need six weeks to figure out their constituents' wishes.

Most Congresspersons have 3-4 day work weeks. They can speak to their constituents all year round if they wish. A six week hiatus is unnecessary. So are pay raises and cost-of-living increases. They get free healthcare, free gym access, free lunches. Get off your asses and work like the regular Americans who pay your salaries!

I called her office and warned them that grassroots Democratic activists will never ever forgive her

I told them that her presidential ambitions were null and void. That got me sneered at by the self-righteous pompous ass who was taking comment but look at her now at the bottom of the heap.

Franken said: "I'm angry at my colleagues who did this." I am too.

Franken said: “I’m angry at my colleagues who did this. I think they were just trying to get past one bad news cycle.”

Good idea. Many in Congress only have a 3-4 day work week as it is.

They all benefit from socialist policy of free single payer healthcare thanks to taxpayers. They ought to work as hard as most taxpayers to earn their salaries.

I agree. We cannot be seen as the party that rewards breaking immigration law.

If we are a party that insists on Chump being held to being accountable to a nation of laws then we must not be hypocrites when asked to apply the law with regards to immigration.

Fine employers. Do background checks. My husband waited five years after getting his green card to become a citizen.

Swing-state Democrats will suffer at the polls if they are seen as approving of an unchecked open border. Advocate for humane conditions and loudly moving to apply the force of law against employers.

Chump will be raising even more hellacious amounts of money now.

There are millionaires and billionaires who have a social conscience but those in the private equity business are greedy bastards.

I predict Harris has been rehearsing for another gratuitous attack on Biden's AA cred.

Harris is nothing if not calculating and she won't want to miss another opportunity to get billions in free media exposure. Harris needs to undermine Biden to win SC or else she is toast for the nomination and she knows it.

This is why amoral robber barons like Thiel think Warren is the "most dangerous"

Love her. Hoping she is on the ticket with Biden.
