#2 Bolsheviks had that same debate with Mensheviks back in 1917. You don't hear much about the Mensheviks anymore.

#3 'Do you want to be in a majority or do you want to be in the minority?'

Ha ha... The irony's delicious.

This guy apparently knows his Revolutionary Russian history: the self-labeled Bolsheviks ("majority-ites") were actually a tiny faction, and the Mensheviks ("minority-ites") the main, dominant party organization.

I suppose the Moscow and Letrograd Soviet equivalent would be... all these shitty little city DAs like Foxx in Chicago and corrupt mayors like DeBlasio??

Fun times for historians. Popcorn!

#6 Ah, now I've remembered - there was a story she wouldn't share tips as a waitress.

#7 This is all to plan. She was hired by an political action group to run for office. As were a few others. This action group is not the DNC or DNC dues payers. What this little group of hers is doing is firing up another party based on socialist ideals. She duped the dems into believing she was a dem. Last week she said Biden and her should be in different parties, trial balloon. She may be a dumbass, but her handlers are not.

#8 ^ Fine with me. Split the Dems into two, roughly equivalent (in size) parties: the new "Progressives" and the old Global Grifter Dems (GGD).

The GGD can absorb Flake, Delecto, and the Weakly Standard crowd. Maybe they'll get 30% if the national vote, and the Progs will get ~20%.

That leaves 50% for the new Trump-Pompeo National Party. Or "Citizens Party," if you prefer.

Or maybe Jacksonian Party.
