I was gonna title this "And here I sit so patiently waiting to find out what price you have to pay to get out of going through all these things twice" and then write "Stuck inside of America with the fascism blues again" here, but I'm not sure if that comes off like gloating and that's honestly the last thing I want to do this morning.

Because he's fucking right. Maybe the Democrats should start listening to people who are fucking right for once.

And win with people excited for the candidate? Never. Milquetoast saves money and being in opposition brings in even more.

Why try to codify Roe v. Wade when you can use it for funding?

Why would being in the opposition bring in money?

They get more donations to fight back than they do in office. When Clinton lost, they got more donations for Biden.

When Roe V. Wade was overturned, they got a massive injection of cash and used it in campaign outreach, so they get money from saying they'll protect women's rights but don't need to unless the money slows down.
