4. Possibly elected an activist-progressive Lt. Gov in @JumaaneWilliams
5. Thrown out Dilan and replaced him with a socialist who won even with a scandal a minute
Basically, the New York state Democratic party was fundamentally transformed tonight.

I’m Monique and I’m slowly acknowledging Democratic Socialist isn’t bad and ummmm IT’S WHAT SANE PEOPLE WANT!!!!!
-
No. No sane person want socialism in any of its guises.
-
If you’re going to argue against roads, firefighters, police officers, social security, and even the armed services then you probably won’t come off as particularly sane. You could argue against a few, maybe, but all seems a little much
-
I'm actually very much against social security, because it isn't social or secure, and I do far better on my own. Common defense is an articulated power delegated to the federal government.
-
"I do far better on my own". Right. Another Ayn Rand acolyte praising the virtues of selfishness. We all do better when everybody looks out for themselves. What unmitigated bullshit.
-
So what is my fair share of your stuff?
-
Is it time to move the goalposts already?
-
Not at all. But your strawmen are invalid. Government, and the services people agree government should provide, are not socialism.

1. Cuomo will just find other "IDC" people, or have an unofficial IDC who consistently votes against progressive bills 2. The same happened with Zephyr Teachout when she ran against Cuomo. None of it happened 3. Haha

He might have "promised" to not run for president to get reelected but he lied. Cuomo knows that this is the last time he runs for governor of NY. He wont miss one night of sleep for his lie and no one outside of NY will blink an eye when he declares his run in 2019.

How has be been “pushed to the left”? You assume politics are static, but he’s not beholding to progressives now that he’s won. So, maybe stop conflating?
