Pelosi dismisses "mystifying" GOP branding of Walz as "radical left"

As one dude put it:

"Hes literally a walking John Cougar Mellencamp song."

Lmao. Fucking genius.

I feel like this was their talking point regardless of who got picked, just like Trump constantly says Kamala had the most radical leftist record in Congress...lmao

The only thing that would've changed if she picked Shapiro is that they would've constantly made fun of him for sounding like Obama... which was hilarious when the Daily Show pointed it out... but Fox would've taken it to extreme levels because its exactly the sort of "sleepy joe" storyline they've been looking for to keep the MAGA name-calling/bully contingent placated.

AOC and Manchin quickly indicated their support. Representing the spectrum of Democrats

"Radicals call extremely normal guy radical, generally continue being weird"

They have burned out their own bullshit.

When every single opponent is the most radical left extremist who ever walked the face of the earth, it becomes meaningless ramblings even to their base. Just like crooked Hilary, Obama, Biden, Harris.

"Radical Left" is the most worn out and stupid insult the right uses. It means nothing when you use it for everything.

Its completely baffling to me that anyone takes Republicans seriously. All they do is obstruct any and all legislation so that nothing can ever get done. And once someone actually manages to help people through legislation they try to spin it like somehow feeding kids is a bad thing.

At this point I'm pretty convinced 'republican' is a mental illness.

That attack might have a little more juice if they didn't deploy it against every single Democrat in the last 60 years, including Joe fuckin' Biden.

These screeds just aren't remotely believable anymore. When Trump goes all in calling Harris a "horror show," it's either "That's just plainly not true" or "If that's true, why did you never even mention her name until after July 21, 2024?"

This is why I like Harris’s new strategy better. A bunch of the Democrats seem like they’re still back in the 1970s expecting something coherent and non-violence-and-lies based to come out of the GOP. Pelosi needs to stop doing that.

You guys (meaning the establishment Democrats) are making excuses for a dangerous animal, and normalizing its behavior, when you try to deal with it as if it was a domesticated pet and get surprised when it doesn’t act accordingly.

You start feeding children and the weirdos in the GOP will start calling you everything in the book.

"Really, it's mystifying to me to see someone that I worked with — shall we say right down the middle — characterized on the left in this regard."

Basically an admission that Dems are center and not Left.
