wild that the take among certain left factions that the libs are more dangerous than the right--a take that was invented nearly a decade ago on the assumption that hillary clinton would crush trump and impose permanent thirdwayism--is now hobbling through a second trump term

we can debate whether clintonesque triangulation/blairesque "thirdwayism" was as successful as people imagined, but the messages were aimed at a real bloc of voters, not "if we piss everyone off we are doing something good'

Buddy I think I know you pretty well mid forties, likes “tech and travel and cars” but you don’t think to much about the consequences of your hobbies. You have supported the dems since you were a kid and saw people attacking the Clintons and you still think it is cool to defend thirdwayism.
