Gottheimer urged Platner to step aside and allow another Democratic candidate to take on Collins. “I don’t understand how somebody like this is going to represent our party and I think the best action would be for him to leave and get somebody else who’s qualified onto the ballot.”
Josh Gottheimer supports the Iran war and co-sponsored a bill defining criticism of Israel as an offense against Jewish people. It’s not Platner who we need to worry about tainting the party’s brand.
heh heh.
you said taint.
sigh Fine.
It’s not Platner who we need to worry about perineuming the party’s brand.
Grundle, taint, gooch, chode… Pick your poison.
Although, I did learn the other year that many people think of a chode as a short fat dick, and I had heard that is was often on gender lines where more women have that definition. Anecdotally, of the ~10 people I surveyed, it heald mostly true, which was kind of wild but not at all binding.
In my experience it’s regional. Back home, a chode was a gooch. I moved, and all of a sudden a chode is a tuna-can dick.
It’s like how a reach-around meant a completely different thing where I’m from.
I thought a gooch was a fuppa

Well its at least going to be interesting…
How long before AIPAC gives up and picks a different battle?
It’s a Senate seat. They’ll pay until their check-writing hand falls off.
I just imagine an AIPAC class action lawsuit about carpel tunnel
This is right. They’ll just massage their already-purchased senators to send more of our tax dollars to Israel. The money will never run out.
We give about twice as much money to Israel as we do to California. But also, California is taxed by the federal government. In fact, they’re taxed more than they receive funding. Why the fuck are we giving universal healthcare and college to Israel while withholding it from ourselves? Even if y’all can excuse the genocide we’re enabling (!) how can you “America first” fucks justify exporting the good life that you are working hard to earn? Where is your outrage?
The money will run out, likely before these traitors lose control of the federal government (because they are fixing to fix our elections and arrest the opposition,) just wait until they have a plausible crisis to justify trillions and trillions more. 8 years I bet.
Same as it always was. Republicans added trillions to the debt already, with more to come, and will then play the part of budget hawk as soon as they’ve lost power and dumped it on the Democrats. They’ve done that for every administration in my lifetime. “Fiscal conservative” is as much an obvious lie as “compassionate conservative”.
I don’t think this is ever going to be a done deal enough for AIPAC to give up. Maine’s still purple and they’ll have their Democratic centrist turncoats to buoy the effort.
I expect Collins is going to do a lot more Israel glazing in the future.
Fuck Susan Collins.
