btw, I just had someone more or less tell me that Obama and Pelosi were privately signaling Joe should step down because he's going to lose to Trump because they're "compromised" so that happened...
Y'all are absolutely batshit. Just so you know. There is no fucking multiverse reality where Pelosi and Obama want Trump to win. None. Zero. The fact that anyone would SAY that to me is a very good sign you've completely lost the plot.
Like, that is a REAL THING that just happened in my replies.
"Obama was not a good president. Mediocre at best. Pelosi also blocked or refused to entertain multiple bills that would’ve been amazing. They’re compromised/irrelevant."
I mean at least go with "they haven't actually publicly said that, Politico is just reporting what THEY say more than a dozen people close to them have said Pelosi and Obama think."
I would still laugh at you, and I wouldn't respect that reply, but at least it wouldn't make me say "holy shit you folks are just as big a cult as Trumpism is" while questioning your grasp on reality. You could at least ARGUE the media is lying - "they're compromised?"
WOW. Absolutely BATSHIT.

I think I caught the gist of it just fine, but you never know. Reading is fundamental and all that.
Politico is the official house journal for "centrist" and conservative Democrats spilling their guts through "unnamed sources". They may hate the Left with a passion, but their Capitol Hill reporting is still, at least for now, at least silver standard. I trust them a tad more than I trust the Bezos-Murdoch Times.
@AnthonyJK Yeah, I know they have sources inside the mainstream party. Liberals only ever say Politico is bad when they don't like the sound of what they're saying.
Either way tho, nobody has to take my word for it, they can just read the article and decide for themselves. I don't read the New York Times, but I did read this:

And that doesn't sound very fucking good for team "these are not the droids you're looking for."
