I only carry mine often because it's my step counter, but I can just as easily use a $15 pedometer or dumb phone for that and keep the main phone where it should be, in a faraday bag.
The voters communicated what they wanted loudly, clearly, and repeatedly in 2024. The Democrats said publicly they wouldn't change anything despite the voters.
This is not a reasonable take. The Democrats doubled-down hard on conservatism centrism in 2024 and all it did was help Trump broaden his coalition. Also here, in Missouri, Republicans not only won, they won against the backdrop of voters approving a $15 minimum wage, required paid sick leave, and voting down an abortion ban.
Bernie and AOC are filling football stadiums in red states with their speeches. If the Dems want to win, they'll embrace economic populism and the left.
Simply put, your opinion is wrong. But feel free to trot out the Cheneys again for all the good it'll do you.
I keep hoping Democrats will come to their senses and stop ignoring AOC and how her rallies are filling football stadiums in red states, but at the end of the day, they don't care about winning. They care about enriching themselves no matter who wins.
I'll admit, I'm not overly familiar with Beshear, but he seems to be the only one who isn't working to normalize these fascists on some level, and for that, I'm willing to read more about him. (But I am skeptical that any Democratic party insider is going to do what needs to be done to break us out of this loop, and that is true economic populism.)
