Dems tend to negotiate by meeting halfway. That’s a mistake when the other side keeps running away.

Keep them from running away — by destroying them in elections when they do.

This isn’t hard.

Joe Biden’s “really worried” that Dems might win too many seats, and tells voters to “stay a Republican” because he thinks “we need” the GOP. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/nidhiprakash/joe-biden-hunter-biden-questions?bftwnews&utm_term=4ldqpgc#4ldqpgc

State Rep. Mike Connolly, a Cambridge Democrat, said conversation around free public transit has been sparked in the context of a recent MBTA fare hike. “It’s a daily crisis for people who have to rely on the MBTA.

@MarcRPacheco @350MassAct @SunriseBoston It should have been a no brainer for @MassGovernor
to meet w/ all those wonderful young people yesterday.
Such a missed opportunity for @MassGovernor & our state. Instead of simply stepping out of his office to hear them, he snuck out & had them arrested.
It's sad & infuriating

This clip of @PeteButtigieg, responding to questions about why he won’t open his fundraisers to the press, is devastating. Wow.
