Re: US Politics Thread
9 sources inside the intelligence community have confirmed Flynn promised Russia they would help repeal sanctions Obama imposed before leaving office before Trump took office. Also, they have confirmed some aspects of the pee tape dossier of Russia helping Trump with the election, they just can't confirm the pee tapes.

I personally would like Conway, Sessions, Bannon, and Flynn OUT.
I think Kushner, Mattis, Kelly, Tillerson are good.

Tea party wasn't having a constant battle to figure out who was the biggest victim. Identity politics will prevent any kind of organized effort. But by all means. Ally with the Occupy, BLM and immigrant groups too.

Best bet to win is run a black guy. Worked last time.

They couldn't unite behind Hillary. You think these yahoos will unite behind a Warren type? There is no way the left mobilized like the right did. Tea Party people had jobs and weren't marching through the streets breaking shit. Remember when it was a national story cause one guy said the N word at a tea party rally?
Progressives can't unite because they try to cater to every fringe group. It's off putting and obnoxious. The DNC needs a Rahm Emanuel type to come forward. Maybe he will. I want this to happen because elsewhise we're getting 8 years of Trump.
But the Democrats won't hold any power again until 2020 at the earliest. People who think 2018 is an option aren't very well informed on who's up for election.
Re: US Politics Thread
They won't need to because these groups can organize state-wise, and these aren't mostly young college occupy douche bags, but real people, as in adults, who vote, many who haven't been politically active before. State races are important. North Carolina can flip totally to Blue. I was really shocked the noise being made in Tennessee by young Christian pro life women who see the APA as a moral obligation. If they can galvinize the south without the interference of coastal elite libs, they could really make some headway. But you can't exclude pro lifers or it can't happen here.
Absolutely agree about Rahm, who was right when he called liberals retards for their attacks on Blue Dogs.
Hillary was, IMO unfairly, a polarizing figure. If Kirsten Gilibrand runs, who I really like, she won't have a Hillary problem with support. It was the shallow laziness of voters that did Hillary in, Trump is the best thing to motivate people to vote.
