If democrats want our votes, it's time for them to start earning them.

The fewer MAGAs that vote the better IMO, democratic candidates shouldn't make concessions to people like you.

“Concessions to people like me”:

  1. Public transport
  2. public education
  3. public healthcare

I’m not in dire need of any of those. But I’m not a selfish dickhead.

I’m advocating for basic things people need to survive (not for myself) and you’re treating it like I want a pony.

Oh, and what an excellent example. Newsom and other corpo dems are abandoning the trans cause to (try to) woo centrists. Progressives aren’t.

What planet do you live on?

Yeah, it's what centrists do.

Trans people lost healthcare under Biden, and Harris said she would "follow the laws" on trans people in red states.

So that argument is null.
