    Walz singlehandedly unified the Dems in a day with AOC and that scum ass Manchin endorsing him. That’s fucking crazy

      Working class policies cross party lines and its why places like Fox spend so much time and money demonizing people like AOC. They saw how easily Bernie was able to talk to republicans and really reach them on both Fox News pannels and on town halls on the campaign trail in 2016. If the Democrats want to pull republicans instead of relying only on higher turnout people like Walz are exactly how you do it.

        I’m really just reiterating what you’re saying but workers built this country. Literally! The CEO “sets the Vision” or whatever bullshit, but we all actually accomplish it, daily. If some entitled asshole sells your company and another buys it, not much would change (aside from the benefits you’re probably losing). We, as a country need to take better care of the people that actually do 99.9% of all the work…

      I’m not a huge fan of Manchin myself, but at the very least he’s pretty upfront about what his priorities are (even if they’re not good) and hasn’t boarded the crazy train - as opposed to RFK, for example - so it doesn’t really surprise me that he’d rather support a down-to-earth midwestern school teacher with progressive policies over whatever the fuck’s going on in Trump/Vance world
