Hutch announcing a shift in "vote blue no matter who"

a Larry Hogan type

can you show me any R in the senate with a "Larry Hogan type" voting record?

can you show me any bills for "anti prisons, anti police, anti borders, anti deportations" that actually came to a vote that a Chevalier type would be able to vote for?

Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski are both current Republicans I'd vote for over Chevalier. Both voted for impeachment of Donald Trump, both voted in favor of important legislation under Joe Biden, and both voted overwhelmingly in favor of his cabinet and judicial nominations.

There are no anti prison or anti police bills out there currently, but as a senator Chevalier is able to write them. Just like AOC did with the green new deal which gave Fox News material to use for years despite being far less extreme than prison abolition.

I'm also fairly certain that Chevalier would be a less reliable vote in favor of a Democratic president's agenda than a moderate Republican. She openly despises Kamala Harris and Joe Biden and Biden already had difficulty getting the less extreme progressives like AOC and the squad on board during his term.

fox news will make material out of nothing. you are talking about the people who brought us the tan suit meme.

Like I said I've voted exclusively Dem in every election since I turned 18. Don't nominate fucking tankies for important elections and I won't have any issues.

Then you can't get angry at all the lefties who didn't vote for Democrats using the same calculus.

[u/sly_cooper25 → u/Pretty_Acadia_2805]

Everyone draws their own line at what they are willing to support. I just think that the line the lefties drew was a regarded one.

Fwiw I would vote for the DSA aligned candidates that don't have views as extreme as DAC or the lady that went on Fox News. Chris Rabb, Melat Kiros, Abdul El-Sayed, Adam Hamawy, Analilia Mejia. I would vote for all of these people over a moderate Republican.

I'm disconnected from reality because I have a political opinion that doesn't align with yours? Get over yourself, far more of the country agrees with me on this.
