We’ve lived in a time of extreme anti-partisanship, which basically means “I may not be an X but I damn sure ain’t a Y”

And it’s fucking boring and ineffective. Time to move on. Is she the one to do it? Idk. But I’m sick of this

If someone still supports these clowns at this point, you're not goint to win them over with bipartisanship, or any appeal to logic, reason, morality etc.. Your BEST bet is just pure self-interest.. If you convinced people that conservatives are responsible for higher prices or are attacking programs they depend on then you MIGHT be able to get through to a handful of people. but even then

Post-partisan, great.

Populist, no way.
