R's ratfucking an election through shopped fx pics and fake polls? Never heard of it.
Knocked doors for a city council election. Candidate was a lesbian, not out because even today being gay is a death sentence for a politic career.
The day before the election they sent out an illegal mailing outing her. (And it was fucking vile) She lost.
This is about the Democratic primary. This is about the Democratic establishment pulling out all the stops against a progressive challenge.
Did you not read his entire post? You know, the part about MAGA billionaires funding his opponent?
Dems underhandedly nobbling a popular candidate in favour of some lobbyists' creature? Never heard of that, either.
Speaking of never heard of that... wtf is "nobbling"!?
To make something fail, especially to make a horse in a race fail by giving it drugs.
Lmao remember when the DNC butchered their chances by not selecting the popular candidate leaving Hillary to lose to what's basically a racist yam that shits itself?
I mean, in fairness, centrists prefer the racist yam to a progressive.
If they were centrists, then she would've won.
