    I wouldn’t vote for him over Biden but I don’t think having a willingness to work with the other party should make someone a “shithead.” That’s just my opinion though.

      The Problem Solvers aren’t just “willing to work with the other party”, they’re happy to derail and sabotage the Democrats and then suddenly impotent whenever Republicans are doing utterly insane things. Fully a third of the Republicans on the caucus wouldn’t even vote for a bipartisan investigation of the January 6th attacks, while the Democratic members were quite happy to sabotage the BBB negotiations.

      They sprang from No Labels and continue to serve the interests of those rich conservatives with performative enlightened centrism. Shitheads one and all.

        You’ve certainly done your research. I can respect that. I’ll have to bone up a little.

      Whether we like it or not, whoever the next president is shouldn’t be just representing their own party. They’re representing all Americans and should act as such. It’s unfortunate that a good portion of Americans are sycophantic psychopaths, but they still get representation. I’m honestly just jazzed to see someone under 60. I get that Biden’s age hasn’t shown to be an issue, but I think seeing what zelynsky has done for Ukraine has made me want a younger president

        Me too. I’ve been following Cory booker’s career since I saw the Street Fight documentary (it’s on Kanopy or cheapest rental is Amazon). When Biden announced a female ruining make I was disappointed because I was really hoping he’d pick Booker. I’ll keep supporting Booker in his national aspersions because I think he’s the real deal.

          I’ll have to look more into booker to form an opinion there, can’t really say I know much about him as it stands now

            I remember watching this live and thinking to myself how I really hope I’ll be able to vote for him someday.
