We should give Andy Beshear his flowers, too.
.@DemGovs' big wins just expanded Democrats' map for 2028, putting states like Iowa, Ohio, and Texas in play. We proved that Democrats can win anywhere – and we should be fighting everywhere. newsweek.com/excusive-andy-b…

I hope they put Bernie's bitch ass up for it.
Him saying this and then immediately removing himself from contention tells you everything you need to know about how the election for Senate Democratic leader is going to go. Let’s move on, folks.

The populist left won. Compare today's "centrists" and "pragmatists" to what Blue Dog Democrats looked like in 2009. Talarico, Turek, Andrews, Colom, and others all campaigned on economic populism.

Read the second sentence, and you'll know what this is all about.

Rare L from the pitchbot. Jeffries and Schumer have fought against all of the most popular candidates in state and local elections. Schumer ignored Nixon and cost us Florida. He endorsed Steven in Michigan and she endorsed the Republican. His Mills pick didn’t cost us anything but it shows how bad he is at this. His approval rate is 13%. Jeffies is loathed among the base. Voters picked populists running on progressive platforms. They don’t want Schumer and Jeffries.

Congressional Democrats scored their greatest electoral triumph in over 50 years on Tuesday. Here’s why the only logical next step is for all of their leaders to step down.

I hope you're all enjoying the break from attack ads and political mailers as much as I am! The final ballots are still coming in, and we'll know more on Tuesday. But the data so far is clear – we have the clearest path to victory.

You don't think we could have won a senate seat and governorship with more investment? Fuck we won in Mississippi. Moron.

I wish Jeffries and Schumer would give folks exactly what they want. Stand down. Give them Leader Sanders and Speaker AOC. It's time to force these people to produce something and end the alternative reality that they'd be so much better at the job than anyone else.

Which is, of course, why we need to abandon the leadership that got us there.
With Dems all but certain to prevail in Mississippi and Alaska, we're most likely looking at a 56D-44R Senate and a ~260D-175R House, which would be Dems' largest House majority since 1992.

The Schumer pile-on is reminding me of Biden 2024.

Y'all called Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris bad candidates for losing... so let's keep that same energy. She was a shitty candidate that lost to a shitty opponent.

I looked at her very closely in FL and she was a good candidate. But this is Florida and she is DSA. So she started out with two strikes against her.

"sChUmEr DiDn'T rEcRuIt CoLoM!"
Schumer says he asked Colom to run against Wicker in 2024 but Colom said no. Colom said he would have a much better shot at beating Hyde-Smith and would try in 2026
72
Yeah, Colom has lost me now. 🤷🏼
Asked whether he would support Chuck Schumer as Senate Democratic leader if elected, Mississippi Democrat Scott Colom said: “I don’t like that our party is represented by two people that live in the same borough.” Colom, who was referring to Brooklyn-based Schumer and House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries, is leading Republican incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith by 49.1% to 48.8%, ~2,500 votes, with 98% of votes counted. The race has not yet been called.

The responses to this are why Democrats are going to continue to lose the business lobby. Just total animosity toward free enterprise from the White, far left members.
NEW: Chuck Schumer is preparing to lead the Senate with a network of former aides lobbying for private equity—including two former policy chiefs and his top health adviser. Their clients include Blackstone, Apollo, and the industry’s top trade group. readsludge.com/2026/11/06/th…

So did Jamie Davis and Angie Nixon, slapdick. We had to send massive amounts of money to defend that short piece of shit because he's a fucking nutjob.

Leftists have successfully stoked enough intraparty dissent that I fully expect Dem losses between now and 2028. Literally the political instincts of a ringworm. Fucking idiots.
Good bye they are sellouts and not up for the job! Bye bye 👋🏽 put up Greg Casar, etc anybody but them

The misinformation and disinformation on this app are insane.
Chuck Schumer saw 4 Black Senate candidates closing in on historic Southern upsets—Nixon in FL, Davis in LA, Wess in AL, and Colom in MS—and starved every single campaign. Left 4 Senate seats on the table because his playbook is from 1980.

I said earlier leftists didn't know who Scott Colom or Jamie Davis were until Wednesday and now they've made him their entire personality because they think they can use his face to attack the Party.
It’s just flat out dishonest to act as if we could know those would be close races. None of you were on here taking about Louisiana. But now you’re an expert on what was known before the election? Just dishonest noise Fake performative bs.

"We could have won Florida" is the new "Bernie got robbed," I see. Just completely made up.
Replying to @PatrickSvitek
We GAVE the GOP a seat in Montana and FL. We should have a filibuster-proof majority.
