Name one seat that they took from the REPUBLICANS. I'm talking about your far left guys. Don't try to claim people who aren't "progressive" right now.
LOL Far lefties are cannibals. They only take seats that are already blue. That's like the energy within a system changing from one form to another like going from potential to kinetic. That doesn't affect the overall energy of the system, the total amount of energy is the same. Therefore nothing has been accomplished........lol. Far lefties accomplish just that..........nothing.
AOC got approx 17,000 votes. The incumbent got approx 15,000 and barely showed up. Ilhan's district was stacked with Somali Muslim immigrants and refugees. Nothing to do with green new deal ideals. Anyhoo, now with Bloomberg running, is he going to essentially wipe everyone else out?
The progressive Dems victories were more than just in Congress. Their state wins set up long term progressive Dem agendas at the state level. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-poli...8-results-governors-state-legislatures-agenda Also, the Dems flipped 41 Congressional seats in 2018 beating incumbent Republicans. All of them ran on some version of the Green New Deal. https://www.axios.com/full-list-201...ped-34d99826-0929-41c6-a1f0-e4d02861c835.html
That was in the primaries. In the general AOC received over 110,000 votes in a district where voter turnout is typically low. Conservatives mock and ignore the Green New Deal at their own peril.
Lol. You trying to claim the whole democratic party now like Columbus discovering America. In that case who does the green party belong to? Centrists? Lol
Ok. Yes, my number quote was the primaries. She is an extension of Bernie. He encouraged her to run. Name one Green New Deal proposal of hers that has passed. Genuine question.
Since your fingers do not work when it comes to finding info that goes against your narrative, I've searched it for you No Berners or JDs flipped these seats, these are actual Democrats. Some of these districts were won by Hillary in 2016, since far-leftists like to pretend that Hillary didn't win anywhere You're welcome https://www.vox.com/policy-and-poli...-elections-2018-live-results-house-seats-flip
I will grant you The Squad. But let's see how long they last The "Tea Party Freshmen" of 2010 came in strong from the right (white backlash against Obama) but none survived long term Apologies in advance for remembering politics past last week http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/will-2010s-tea-party-freshman-class-survive
If you want "real dramatic change," move to a country where there are no Republican obstructionists...or far-leftist saboteurs for that matter
We have dramatic change every eight years. Thanks to them green party bots. For some reason they don't understand that 3 meters west after three meters east will bring you back to where you started.
Even though many of the Tea Party clowns who got elected in 2010 didn't last, the Freedom Caucus is still very real and has a lot of influence over the Republican party. They members who've been elected in the past few cycles, and they recruited longtime incumbents. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_Caucus The Tea Party also heavily influenced the primary voters. Republicans who talk like moderates will lose a primary anywhere in the US. There's no reason that the Dems shouldn't try to enforce the same discipline. Reps like Henry Cuellar and Dan Lipinski, who side with the Republicans the majority of the time while representing safe Democratic districts, shouldn't be in Congress. If the party won't discipline them, then the base has to.
...and today we get proof that those polls that showed Pete with massive leads had flawed methodology and were outliers. New Suffolk poll from New Hampshire has Sanders in the lead and Pete in third. The notion that he had a ten point lead on the rest of the field was absurd. (Also, LOL @ Kamala "top tier" Harris getting doubled by Gabbard) An aggregate of polls from the early primary states shows that Pete has actually dropped since the last debate. (Note that Biden is only this high in this aggregate because of his lead in South Carolina. He's not doing well in the other early states. Also, this appears to be where all of Steyer's national support is coming from because he's barely at 2% in the national aggregate.)
"Version of the Green Deal" is a catch phrase. Every progressive wants "free college" I bet you can't prove that one congressperson that took a seat from the red team wants "free college." Just one. obviously if they don't want "free college" they aren't a "progressive"
LOL Any day now. Out of all the bots here, not one of them can prove that ANY of the new Congressmen that took a seat from the red team actually wants free college. Don't politicians advertise what they want? This should be easy LOL. Yet supposedly all 41 congressmen are progressive..........riiight
Bruh, I've got turkey day responsibilities to take care of, but I will post those Dem candidates' platform who won in 2018.
