It seems by many here that if a politician doesn't go whole-hog MAGA and get aboard the Trump train, then they're just a coward. Life doesn't revolve around The Magnificent One.


He’s a D who could have distanced himself from such a divisive speech, but he choose otherwise. I agree people here expect full MAGA from R’s, but I think they would like to see some populist D’s stand up to the current administration. I firmly believe a populist movement containing both R’s and D’s would dominate the political landscape for a decade plus if they would just focus on the common issues the majority of Americans feel are most important. The discordant rhetoric of current D’s is equivalent to what they claim as the reason Trump had to be beaten in 2020. The hypocrisy is just disgusting.

Bingo.

Nobody on that side is willing to stand up to the worst elements of their own party.

He’s gotta tightrope for two more months!

If he agreed with Biden, he lost any crossover votes and independents.

If he rebuked Biden, he loses his base.

Basically, all the swing state Dems are hating Brandon for that speech last week.
