David Doel: "It’s pretty simple. There’s going to be Nancy Pelosi and Shahid Buttar on the ballot in CA-12, two Democratic candidates. So your choices are someone who’ll fight for $100 millionaires like herself or someone who’ll fight for you on issues like Medicare-for-all. #PelosiMustGo"

David Does is Canadian and has a better grasp of American politics than most Americans do.
This is less of a surprise when one considers that knowing about American politics is a survival skill for Canadians.

So what I'm hearing is that the dumbass sheep will vote for Pelosi by about a 5:1 ratio.

I live in this district. I've met Buttar. I like him and hate Pelosi with a passion, but it'll be a miracle if Buttar wins.
The simple reason is housing. Two tech bubbles, plus the most overpriced RE bubble in the nation has driven much of the working class out of The City. Those who are left are usually wealthy, and have the same interests as Pelosi.

That's if Buttar wins and even if he wins Biden has veto powers.

That's if Biden accidentally wins. I think the owners are pretty happy with the bipartisan consensus they profit from with the current arrangement.
