If Biden gets elected I think we get to maybe halfway to where the country was pre-Trump. Then the 'smart compromise' ends and where we end up is the new socialized norm.

It is my honest belief that if the House and Senate got comfortably flooded with moderates Dems it would be the excuse to be as moderate or even slightly right leaning as they want under a Biden presidency.

Most of these people are only being progressive as a front to build a base and get their butts in a chair. Without a truly progressive leader at the to lead the way, they will stick to the easy path.

Maybe that's far too cynical of me.


I mean, we have evidence of this! Its what happens

I think he was saying that (even with) Biden in the White House, the progressive movement would have a lot more power than the possible alternative with Trump in the White House.

It is a very optimistic way of looking at things, but I like it!


I suppose that is what he meant

But I dont believe the system could ever actually work

it was made clear in 2016 and their actions thus far have all pointed to this. trump means they keep power and they can at the least keep playing as underdogs. bernie means they're out of power, have become ineffective, outdated, and cuts into everything they've built.

The moderate lane is currently unified while she isintentionally or notsplitting the progressive lane.

Like how is that an ally? She shares beliefs but she is actively hurting Bernie.

If all the people that had endorsed Biden today endorsed Bernie, him and his fanbase would have been very happy about it. The progressive movement isn't about excluding people who would join to fight for the rights of others.


It wouldnt make any ideological sense for any of those people to endorse Bernie though.

Theyre Democrats. They believe in Democratic Party ideals as they currently are. Bernie is an outsider from a party that doesnt currently exist in America using the Democratic Party to achieve campaign legitimacy.

Like, there does not exist a world where Amy Klobuchar endorses Bernie Sanders over Joe Biden

Bernie has had far more resources than any of the candidates, Biden included. If he can't beat him hes not strong.


My one caveat on this would be if he comfortably beats Biden in the Rust Belt but Biden cleans up in Red States, that would be a bad form of strength for Biden

I dont really see how its stacking the deck against Bernie so much as it is just picking one single candidate to best face him. If he needs moderate Dems at each others throats to win, thats bad.

Its what Republicans couldnt do in 2016.

Well, I said what I said because the rapid response and unification of the moderate wing behind Biden as soon as Bernie became a legit threat to win the nomination truly shocked me! I didnt think they had it in them, and I hope they can bring that same energy to the general.

I mean, on the same show McIntyre got his big break, Charlotte got another accolade she didn't need.


Well the thinking there is to use Charlotte to elevate Ripley and NXT as a whole to help beat AEW

She popped zero rating on Wednesday though so *shrug*

For the "ratings obsessed" people:

10min and two words led to Goldberg/Reigns having both the highest rated and viewed segment of le night. Well over 3million in viewers. That also might be one of the highest rated/viewed segments since WWE moved to Fox.

So there's that.


Goldberg and Cena getting those ratings

How many years can they keep trotting them out to save the day

Cena pops ratings

Which I remember Moxley referring to creative as a "jam session" where they just sort of bounced ideas off each other.


Cody did an interview with Dave and Bryan a few weeks ago and he mentioned how the biggest unforeseen obstacle theyve found is coming up with direction and ideas for wrestlers who arent as creatively driven as The Elite are.

They just kind of assumed everyone would come into those jam sessions with their own material
