    “Best” part is him sneering at the liberals protesting a system where winning more votes doesn’t mean having more power.https://twitter.com/ositanwanevu/status/1060547728453877760 …

    This is how Bret Stephens describes an election in which Democrats flipped the House with at least 29 seats, took well over 300 state legislative seats, and took seven governorships. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/08/opinion/midterm-results-2020-democrats.html#click=https://t.co/l26i0W4Fjc … pic.twitter.com/xuKaXs5Tr3

        OK, aptly named Dreamland. Please tell me how we can win the senate without learning to build constituencies in the small states that wield a disproportionate amount of power under our system? I'll stand by for my answer.

        I'm talking about size in terms of population. Because that's the bone of contention here: the fact that Wyoming has eight citizens and two senators.

        Weird how he puts it on Dems to “reach across” and try to change his fallen GOP. But then he’s also always calling us losers.

        lemme guess - he also suggests democrats should do a bunch of work to reach across the aisle, while he has no advice for republicans, who can continue acting like a bunch of sociopathic toddlers without consequence. (I refuse to actually read this shit)
