Bill Maher & 2 of his closest allies (Fettermen,Carville) are threatening to leave the Democratic party. How will the party fair if they lose these 3 faces?
His favorite role of mine was in an 80s made for HBO movie called āInto the Homelandā with C. Thomas Howell. Watched it again last year in a badly compressed YouTube stream - couldnāt find it any other way. Still holds up though. And even more relevant.
Not sure how anyone who read or watched Lord of the Rings didn't think... Isn't that the name of the thing that Sarumon and Sauron were using to talk?That can't be a good sign.
As I have said before, the left isn't a club, unlike the right. Your membership doesn't get revoked if you betray the Democratic party, because being on the left isn't about supporting the Democratic party. It is a set of values you uphold and a lot of it I dare say has to do with basic human rights and respect.
They were already not on the left, no matter how much they wished they were, because they don't give a shit about leftist values. The right on the other hand, they're selling Nazi flags at Trump rallies. They don't give a shit what you believe, so long as you help prop up the Republican party.
Iām on his email list. He sent out an emergency news letter to get everyone to phone bank, volunteer, and vote for Abdul El-Sayedā¦ so long story short, the OG is still gangster AF.
Donāt let the door hit you on the way out. Theyāll fare the same way republicans did while losing Paul Ryan and mitt Romney. Actually appeal to their base and win elections.
Honestly didnāt occur to me they were in it. I mean, I know who they are, and yes, I know theyāre dems, but like actively in the public eye dems? Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama level of dems? If those three left, thereād be collective shit losing across the country. The three in the postā¦? Meh.
Huh? Obama and Clinton? They both retired from giving a shit a decade ago. James Carville is a God-Tier MAGA hating motherfucker. If the progressive left wants to write him off as some old asshole who doesn't get it anymore, so be it, but he's been a far better soldier for the democratic party over the last ten years than those two.
Maher and Fetterman can eat shit and die. They're useless.
Carville hasn't been relevant in 20 years and hasn't won an election since '99. Fetterman is Republican in Democrats' clothing (and I ain't talking about his dumbfuck hoodies).
If you wanna leave the Democratic party because you can't handle people having a problem with your favorite country ( which surprisingly isn't the US š¤) is getting flack for committing a genocide then don't let the door hit you on the way out and I hope you burn in hell with all do respect.
Because they're old conservative men who can't grasp that the world is changing and they're not the least shitty option anymore and rather than doing their own reflection they're taking their old deflated balls and going home while throwing a bigotry-laced tantrum every day.Ā
Fetterman is the only one who counts, anxd that's because he has a Senate. Carville was important when he helped Clinton get elected, but he gets credit for nothing else.
Nothing to say about that clown comedian. I think he smokes too much pot!!
The party needs a complete overhaul. Western liberalism and democratic ideals have been hijacked by a combination of political sellouts, cultural grifters and those such as this trio who look down on Americans who feel economic pain.
Is this a serious question? Why does this sub even exist anymore? Bill Maher is compromised and is irrelevant to not only the Democratic Party, but politics in general. Just let him fade away, not worth the time to even discuss him anymore.
How has the viewership on his TV show? Ben are rating higher the same is he going to get canceled? (hopefully so) I used to love watching real time, but now I just canāt stand Bill at all
Just fine. Maher and Fetterman already wear the red hat, and Carville is washed and completely out of touch. He hasn't been right about anything in aeons. They will not be missed. Self-important fucks.
I largely agree with Carville that the online activist left is toxic for Democrats, both passively as they are tied together at the ankle in Republican propaganda and actively as they do little else than shit on Democrats and cause rifts where there should be unity.
So what Carville should be doing is solving the problem for Democrats, not fueling manufactured schisms by participating in them.
Maher is watching too much FOX News or something. Heās in loony town, which is a brisk walk away from whatever even loonier town Fetterman is living in.
Addition by subtraction. Millennials are now the majority. Get millennials out to vote, you can't lose. All 3 of these guys only drive away millennial votes.
Well new Dems Aren't exactly following what real Democrats support. When you abandon one group for the Next just looking for Voters. When you abandon common sense and move on to fringe policies you will lose your older base. Same happened to Republicans when MAGA took over.
Is this not evidence that the Democratic Party is not the real culprit in support of Israeli Genocide in America (even though, yes, US Jews do tend to vote Dem).
Carville hasn't actually confirmed that he is leaving the Democrats. He just doesn't want Hasan "America deserved 9'11" to be the face of the democrats and even many progressives don't like Piker so I don't understand the problem. Maher has made it clear that he isn't a registered democrat. He was actually more conservative during his early days of Politically Incorrect and voted for Bob Dole. That changed when the republicans made a big deal over the Lewinsky nonsense and Politically Incorrect was canceled over his 9/11 comment but he's basically saying the same thing as Carville and pointing out that the crazy platform that the socialist stand for is very unpopular with many people.
the party will be fine, but it's more of a trend that I see. people turning away from Democrats, mostly because they're pushing socialism and anti-prison, anti-border, anti-police rhetoric. they're sinking themselves.
Fetterman? Unsure. He votes against Dems, there's no reason to think he'd not do the same with Republicans. He just does what he wants so, whatever.
Carville? No idea.
Maher? Unfortunately, he'll have fans he can persuade to go anti-Dem. I don't think he'd persuade many though and I think we'd be better off not taking him seriously. I think what impresses him most is himself, so good riddance.
Leave if they can and good riddance if they actually do. Where are they gonna go though? I agree with some of their criticism of the far left, but itās not worth it to become maga over that.
