What exactly is he shooting at here?

What exactly is he shooting at here?

A duck, maybe? Or a goose flying by?

A duck, maybe? Or a goose flying by?

I wondered if it was the turkeys that mocked him.

Not the spots I'd be picking......

Not the spots I'd be picking......

It is if you need more campaign donations.

He could break ties in the Senate!

Good but not very exciting.

He's also in Harris's ear and has shown to be left leaning on a lot of issues. He could help shape her mandate.

He is also a highly respected former House member, with strong support throughout the party, and could be a great asset in whipping votes towards her Administration's agenda. So yeah, not just breaking ties, but also liasing with both houses of Congress.

 

[InCali]

It is if you need more campaign donations.

Yeah, but they seem to be doing pretty well. Of course, you can never have too much money......anyway, I'd be working OH, MT, MI, WI, and PA....I guess they'll get to it (and actually already mostly have).

Pretty impressive tour they did last week. Too bad no one was actually there.....

Circulating where? In Steve Bannon's jail cell toilet bowl? Yeah, he's gonna resign right after he does his fundraising tour next week through CA, CO, MA, NY, and RI and right after the convention.

God, some people are stupid......not ignorant......STUPID.

Will the attacks on Walz's military service stick like they did to Kerry 20 years ago?

To some Democratic Party strategists, last week felt like déjà vu. Donald Trump’s presidential campaign was aggressively questioning aspects of the Democratic vice presidential nominee’s military service — attacks that were reminiscent of charges leveled two decades earlier on Sen.

The key difference is Trump's a draft dodger and he's not the incumbent.

We need more educators in our government. My US Government teacher in college told me that professors make terrible presidents using Woodrow Wilson as an example, but seriously we undervalue education in this country. They understand what it means to be underpaid. They understand what it means to fight and what actually goes on in unions. It's why Walz is such a damn fine pick.

History teachers would make good Presidents, at least when it comes to foreign policy. Guys like Trump don't have a clue how past events are affecting us today.

Oh yeah. He would probably support Medicare for All or a public option.
