    As much of a cop-out as the double endorsement is, I thought the article was good and the logic was decent. Basically, if you think that Trump is a one-off and that we were going to “regress to the mean” after he leaves office anyway, then Klobuchar is for you. If you think that trump is not the cause but just a symptom of an irreparable system that needs someone to come in with a sledgehammer to fix, Warren is your gal.
    (Paraphrasing, of course.)

    Virginia Dems took over running on Gun Regulation platforms. There is absolutely no reason for them to cave. Hopefully they don't.

    this thread always has a lot
    the racism, health care industry fellating, and comparing Bernie to Trump (with non factual statements) parts were lit

    but their job, if there is any substance to the NYT left, is to make the call between those two points

    It's crazy how much I've seen this not just from the NYT but blue-checkmark big-brained Twitter.

    Say what you will about the Bros and being a cult, this is wildly offensive to even try and equate the two people.

    Notice how that flattens out when the ACA was enacted. Pretty impressive for the worst healthcare legislation in the history of the universe

    It's actually thanks to deaths of despair. Something totally normal that happens in such a booming economy.

    The bar for the official mass shooting is 4 or more deaths. Pretty dumb that it depends on deaths, and not people shot.

    It doesn’t. A mass killing requires 4 or more dead.

    Mass shooting is not the same definition as mass killing.

    Not an FBI stat I don’t think. The media has generally settled on a definition of 4 or more shot.

    That should add seven, maybe eight people who weren't already voting for him. 2A people are 99% of his base.

    The section, like many parts of the Constitution, was slightly awkward—an anachronistic arrangement of words that don’t naturally trip off the tongue. Members of the crew exchanged looks, trying not to be obvious. Some believed Trump would eventually get it, but others were more concerned. The president, already bristling about his missteps, was getting angry. He chided the crew, accusing them of distracting him. “You know, your paper was making a lot of noise. It’s tough enough,” Trump said.

    “Every time he stumbled, he manufactured something to blame people,” another person in the room recalled. “He never said, ‘Sorry, I’m messing this up.’ [Other] people would screw up and say, ‘Ohhhh, I’m sorry.’ They would be self-effacing. He was making up excuses and saying there were distracting sounds.… He was definitely blaming everyone for his inability to get through it. That was prickly, or childish.” Though stiff, he eventually made it through without any errors.

    Whatever the reason for Trump’s discomfort with the reading, several watching agreed on this much: He behaved like a brooding child, short-tempered, brittle, and quick to blame mystery distractions for the mistakes. “I didn’t expect this, but I felt sorry for him,” another witness said. “When [Vice President] Pence is reading it, when [former vice president [Dick] Cheney is reading it, I knew they knew the Constitution. And I thought, Before he got this job, he really should have read it.”
