I get it, but I think you and some others have the wrong idea of what speaker and majority leader are. It’s like the difference between teachers and principals – teachers manage kids and principals manage adults. You have to want to be a principal, it’s not like if you’re a teacher you automatically want to be a principal. It’s a totally different skill set and stuff you would be interested in doing as your job
I’ve never heard Warren’s name brought up as being interested in that, or Presley for that matter
van hollen wasnt even intrested until the chatter from peers and constituents made him reconsider his bid for presidency. that itself refutes ur argument, so pivoting to this being about "not understanding" is rich
i already addressed the absolute defeatist thinking around needing and waiting 4 someones name to be in *circulation before they can even be considered fit for the role. implicitly drawing a line as if either pressley or warren arent as qualified simply bc of this and them not innately having the desire to fill these positions unlike the aforementioned bought-n-paid for opportunists is p narrow minded. also .. if u havent noticed bad 'policy' is the biggest part of what even granted dems a congress majority inna 1st place. warren being well versed in where the actual legislative vision and energy of the party/voters is going into 2028 would an asset, not a liability
hollen or schatz would only have an easier go of 'rallying across the isle and navigating party lines' simply on account of the fact that theyre all taking the same blood money
All this Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer s*** is doing is hurting the DNC because it's making more people realize that they really aren't for them.
It's just hilarious at my job when they wanna talk about Trump's "historically low approval ratings" whole time Jeffries and Schumer are at like 13% and 16% in their own districts in NY...and about mid-20% approval in their current speaker/leader roles.
You know how f***ing awful you gotta be at your job to have a lower approval rating than Donald Trump in 2025 AND 2026? How this s*** is even up for debate is mind-boggling to me.

They are out of touch with reality. They may could have gotten away with just going along with those dudes in previous election cycles, but now...the people are fed up.
If you live in Texas please call your local representative to make sure Greg abbot doesn't hold a special session to remove governor powers

What does this even mean, lol?
The economist is known for their s***ty graphs it’s a meme at this point lol
Basically X axis is % that voted for Kamala in 24, Y-axis is % share vs expected. So upper left side are 2024 Trump voting areas where democrats performed better than expected. They’re supposedly concluding that moderates won in Trump territory and progressives won more in already left areas
Lol if they think so!

That’s what people did the election before for precisely that reason and you all were doing nothing but punching left and saying they’re closet MAGA people lol
