A Thread⤵️WaPo's List of Top 15 Dems to Run in 2020 (and my 2 cents on each) washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/w…
15. Oprah - Noprah! We have very little info as to her views on policy and, frankly, I'm not all about the celebrity angle UNLESS they have been strong activists or involved in politics prior to.
14. Mitch Landrieu - OK, this is the one guy on the list I don't know a lot about I'll admit. Donna Brazile loves this guy (so take that how you'd like) and here is an article stating why not to support him. newrepublic.com/article/144446…
13. Sherrod Brown - Yeah, this guy doesn't support #MedicareForAll so that does it for me. BIG OLD NO!
12. Andrew Cuomo - Hmmm...can we just stay away from the Oligarchy? Andy is a neoliberal nightmare. I get he is going to be looking for a new job soon. I'm sure some lobbyist firm will scoop him up in a heartbeat.

So, yeah, this is a HUGE NO from me.
11. Chris Murphy - Ugh. CT Senator. Doesn't support #M4A and I can see why...he loves taking that money from the health industry.

Chris, dude, I'm gonna have to go with a #NeverMurphy here.
10. Michael Bloomberg - 🙄 NO NO NO NO NO NO
9. Eric Holder Jr. - Do we really need Obama's leftovers?

Not doing it for me, Eric. Sorry.
8. Terry McAuliffe - besides other issues with this guy, did you know before he was Gov. of Virginia he was a super-fundraiser for the DNC who was sued over by his business associates?

Go away, Terry. We don't want you. motherjones.com/politics/2013/…
7. Deval Patrick - I'm from MA. Just take my word when I nuh uh. He currently works for Bain Capital, a lobbying firm who has their hands in a lot of pies, one being healthcare and on their website they love to tout how much $ can be made there. bain.com/publications/a…
6. Kirsten Gillibrand - OH, my little snake in the grass. Sure she is all supportive of progressive issues since Nov 2016 but I just can say one thing, follow the money.
5. Cory Booker - If anyone thinks this poster boy for Neoliberalism is a good choice, have I got a bone to pick with you.
4. Joe Biden - Creepy Uncle needs to just retire.
3. Kamala Harris - Yeah, she's a cop so I needn't go further into her than that. That's two very huge thumb's down.
2. Elizabeth Warren - Fence sitting is her specialty. If you want more of the same vote for Liz. I know I don't want it.
1. Bernie Sanders - Finally someone that has the people in mind and not his pocket but I'm told he isn't a Democrat so why is he sitting at the top of the list? Strange. It's almost as if Establishments Dems are not trusted.

Well, I made my choice. Have you?
*say (still going with the track record of screwing up every thread at least once) 😂
OOPS f*cked up the sreen shot 😂

OK so since I'm not on my phone, I'll do memes I made. I have lots to choose from but I'm standing by no explanation.

Plus trying to hand write with a mouse while laying down is tough :)

A Thread⤵️Oh, Obama

Let's take a look at Politico's article from 6/29 about Obama's comments on the party
Well, besides the fact that half the party is frustrated that O's message of hope turned to nothing more than dust, the other half is bamboozled enough to still think he was something great. This is the half that still thinks the Dems are the good guys.
Glad to see he is kicking it with the people in the "lush backyard" of 2 megadonors but that last little tidbit shows you where the next paragraph is going. Good things, things that would help the ones that need help the most, are all magic and ponies to these people.

A Thread⤵️Breaking Down A Hit Piece on Our Revolution
Well, no mincing words, Dovere gets right into it. Problem is, not amplifying its candidates seems a HUGE projection. The DCCC and DNC has been horrible to their candidates. For example what they did to Laura Moser was horrible.
Where are these Sanders supporters? Once again this seems like a huge projection. And what Sanders has done to organize the left is more than anyone has in a long time.

As a whole, #DonutTwitter are trolls with no real politics. All they care about is the "Team Sports" mentality.
One type you come across a lot, as @disco_socialist pointed out, are the 60 year old cis men with Retro Housewives for avi pics. These are some of the worst ones. #DonutTwitter
