The squad is the public face of the Democratic Party.
They are Democratic Party thought leaders.
Look at the candidates in the primary right now. Why do so many support Medicare-for-all-with-no-private-option, despite that seldom polling over 40%?
Why do so many of them support abortion-at-any-time-for-any-reason, despite it seldom polling over 25%?

Because the Democratic Party, in no small part due to the squad and their influence, has shifted ridiculously left.

They know that the democratic base is so radical that these unpopular positions are the only way to win the primary.

"They are Democratic Party thought leaders."
no

2019-09-01 22:16:20 UTC  

they are just mouthpieces

2019-09-01 22:16:26 UTC  

marketable mouthpieces

2019-09-01 22:16:39 UTC  

It's the DC bubble

2019-09-01 22:16:47 UTC  

They are. Look at the primary debates going on right now.
The only one substantially disagreeing with the squad is Biden. And even then, not by much.

2019-09-01 22:17:13 UTC  

I'm confused as to why that matters?

2019-09-01 22:17:25 UTC  

literally only one person of that election matters

2019-09-01 22:17:27 UTC  

the nominee

2019-09-01 22:17:29 UTC  

and even then

2019-09-01 22:17:33 UTC  

Well the democratic party are just a bunch of mouth pieces

2019-09-01 22:17:42 UTC  

they only matter REALLY if they win the perzidential

2019-09-01 22:17:53 UTC  

which they won't

2019-09-01 22:18:04 UTC  

...because the next president of the United States might be someone who takes all of their talking points from the squad? That might be a little bit important?

2019-09-01 22:18:14 UTC  

The only person trump is actually afraid of is tulsi iirc

2019-09-01 22:18:17 UTC  

I mean in theory

2019-09-01 22:18:22 UTC  

nut not in practive

2019-09-01 22:18:27 UTC  

practice

2019-09-01 22:19:08 UTC  

>Facial recog is very accurate

2019-09-01 22:19:29 UTC  

“Oh sure, yeah, Bernie and Warren can’t win.”
...He says, with Trump, out of left field no one ever expected *Trump* as the current president.

Anything can, and does, happen.

2019-09-01 22:19:59 UTC  

The rule book is gone, my dudeZ

2019-09-01 22:20:07 UTC  

no

2019-09-01 22:20:09 UTC  

when are we going to get a clown president, i want representation for my people dammit

2019-09-01 22:20:10 UTC  

We could have president sanders in 2020

2019-09-01 22:20:19 UTC  

The difference is that polling is all sided towards the democratic party, it's not unsafe to vote in polls for democrats

2019-09-01 22:20:23 UTC  

Trump channeled a genuine feeling in the larger mutt public

2019-09-01 22:20:43 UTC  

We could have president Maryanne fucking Williamson in 2020.
The book is fkn gone, son.

2019-09-01 22:20:45 UTC  

these 4 channel upper middle class pretention

2019-09-01 22:20:47 UTC  

unelectable

2019-09-01 22:20:49 UTC  

It was unsafe to poll for trump which is why no one saw trump coming, unless you actually paid attention to trump

2019-09-01 22:21:03 UTC  

I wish the book was gone

2019-09-01 22:21:04 UTC  

it's not

2019-09-01 22:21:17 UTC  

Are the bets for the new pres open yet?

2019-09-01 22:21:20 UTC  

le epic "trump won so everything is chaos!!!" meme

trump's win was entirely predictable to anyone without their head up their ass

2019-09-01 22:21:29 UTC  

yep

2019-09-01 22:21:45 UTC  

All these 20/20 hindsight motherfuckers.

2019-09-01 22:21:48 UTC  

Bullshit

2019-09-01 22:21:52 UTC

2019-09-01 22:22:05 UTC  

The only person who predicted trump was Ann Coulter.
