Summary
Democratic divisions intensified as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Nancy Pelosi sharply criticized Chuck Schumer for supporting a Republican-led funding bill to avoid a government shutdown.
AOC called Schumer’s decision a “betrayal,” urging Senate Democrats to reject the legislation backed by Trump and Elon Musk. Pelosi called the bill a “devastating assault” on working families.
Schumer defended his stance, arguing a shutdown would empower Trump and Musk further.
The controversy sparked suggestions among Democrats that AOC might challenge Schumer in a primary.
You’re asking to turn apathetic voters into 3rd party voters. I don’t think you realize what that means.
Oh no, I’m asking apathetic voters to be so apathetic that brands no longer matter either.
I legitimately do not understand what you are saying
I would go into the game theory and political theory of this, but I fear you wouldn’t understand that either.
It’s OK, if it happens, things would be so beyond fucked to get us to that point that it’s less of a “third party” and more of a “survivors” scenario.
No…what you said literally made no sense. Have a good rest of your weekend.
Lol, OK kiddo ; )
Well now you’re just trying too hard. Your trolling has no subtlety.
Don’t worry you’ll grow up one day
Lemmy is not a reddit cesspool. Let’s be adults here.
I have a bachelor’s and master’s in this. My commentary is not some “trolling” attempt, this is a relativly informed, yet frustrated, opinion. We don’t have to agree, yet I feel like you’re not presenting an honest or forthright response.
Why would I present an honest or forthright response when you’re calling me “kiddo”? Are you joking? Do you have amnesia or something?
