Primary the fucker. I'm tired of these shitty halfassed center obsessed babies who spend their time trying to appease republicans instead of standing up to them.
- Its too late for primaries to be relevant.
  
  Midterms are game changers. It is not too late for primaries.
  The 2026 U.S. midterm elections are scheduled for November 3, 2026. All 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 35 Senate seats will be contested.
  
  Well yeah, just next election replace him.
I’m no fan of Nancy either but she’s got more spine than Schumer I’ll give her that
- All politicians do when they're out of office.
  
  She's not speaker any more, but she's still a member. And I'm sure she would've said the same as speaker.
  
  Is Nancy done? I thought she was still in office just not the SotH
  
  Except Pelosi is still in office.
  
  Is she out of office?
- So far...
Man, I was just thinking last night that at least Pelosi never publicly capitulated like this, and then realized how absurd it was that I was yearning for the good old days of fucking Pelosi.
