What part do you not agree with?

The simplistic basis of the post overall, but beyond that, the meme was in response to the sneeringly dismissive second sentence and its reductive tropes, which can't be reasoned with.

Shocking—in that this is a rare case of Republicans engaging in repugnant and quasi-illegal political behavior that they did not accuse the Democrats of doing to them first.

Keep in mind these economic progressives who think billionaires are the scourge of the earth are endorsing a billionaire for governor of California. 

we have DSA candidate for Mayor in A^2. I don't agree with the DSA on very much but I'll vote for anyone against Chris Taylor. If Taylor wins the primary, Mayor will be the only R vote on my general election ballot.

If El-Sayed wins the primary, I'm going to either leave it blank or write in a candidate. Am I just supposed to vote for whoever Democratic leadership tells me to vote for? He should campaign harder and win my vote.

This is a swing district by the way.

has someone checked the flight logs to Katmandu?

I guess they have put out that he's having a health issue. Apparently something that has taken his ability to speak.

Looks like the GOP has decided Collins is going to lose if they sent this guy to campaign for her

It's simply mind-bloggling that a public official, placed in office by voters, is allowed to elude access by the public for so long and without reasonable explanation or discovery.

Not to be too "both sides" but there is also a Dem lady in Texas who has gone missing from Congress.  She's on the far side of her sell-by date so its probably illness related as well.  Congressional staffs are gonna do that thing aren't they?
