If those safe seats aren't being used to push a leftist agenda, then why not attack them? Defeating MAGA needs more than just having Democrats in office, it requires people who are willing to stand up to the MAGA movement and not just easily win a seat over and over for decades.
Those Democrats are standing up to MAGA and advancing the platform of our party. Pay attention to what they’re doing and spread the word instead of spreading lies about our people, doing the negative messaging for the benefit of Republicans.
That's what Hogg wants to do. Notice that his plan isn't to primary every safe Democrat, it's to get rid of the ones who aren't helping.
Which reps aren’t helping?
Hogg has no idea what those representatives are doing. Their constituents voted them in & if their constituents are unhappy with them they can vote them out. The DNC & its leadership needs to stay neutral in primaries. It will only garner bad will from candidates & supporters of those candidates.
That's the point Hogg is making. Pay attention to what your reps are doing, and if they aren't doing enough, challenge them. My rep is milque toast. If there was a good challenger, I'd vote for them in a second. She replaced a safe seat and has put it at risk by being namby-pamby. Get rid of her.
Who is your rep?
Val Hoyle. She's useless. She won't even hold her own town halls, she only does them in conjunction with either of our very excellent Senators. Weak sauce. She was lucky that Pete DeFazio held the seat for decades, and had a good following. GOP has spent a lot of $$, and at this rate, will take it.
You’re nitpicking her for holding town halls with her Congressional counterparts.
Yes. I am. Because she ALWAYS does. Hiding behind good men shows how weak she is herself. She avoids her constituents, doesn't respond authentically, and can't even run her office effectively. But beyond that, she simply doesn't show up and stand up. Press releases are her idea of action.
Maybe you’re not aware, but Senators and Reps from the same party typically hold town halls together. That’s typical in every state.
Maybe you're not aware that it isn't normal here. DeFazio didn't need anyone to hold his hand. And doesn't change her weakness as a rep.
DeFazio came in when both Oregon Senators were Republicans. Of course he wasn’t in the habit of doing town halls with them. Senators & Reps in the same party in a state support one another and it’s not “hand-holding.”
You're welcome to your opinion, of course. I find her milque toast at best. And would happily see a better candidate with more gumption.
Fuck leftists. They’re useless except when they’re worse than useless because they’re helping Republicans like Rashida Tlaib did when she launched her year long effort to destroy the Biden/Harris presidential campaign.
Harris destroyed her own campaign by inviting Republicans to the convention
Only 19 followers? Not a coincidence.
I keep saying there are ratfuckers on here trying to depress Democratic turnout.
Oh. You must be a Berniebro. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
No, she didn’t. That’s not why she lost.
Most people can't select a car in 107 days. Republicans that participated in the campaign were NOT the deciding factor. An abbreviated campaign window was part of the issue. Low information voters who didn't know Biden was not running, among other things....
