      It's probably worth noting that while this group, Justice Democrats, calls Biden "out-of-touch" with the "center of energy" in the Democratic Party, only 26 of the 79 candidates it endorsed last year won their primaries, and only 7 of those went on to win the general election.pic.twitter.com/kHPsqgrp35

      Sometimes your perspective is just horrible man. Those 7 candidates are the 7 most revolutionary game changers in Congress right now.

          Right. And we're going to count it against them that Kara Eastman, for example, didn't win? A liberal female candidate in Nebraska coming within 2% of the incumbent Republican is very significant.

          Yes, we are. Sharice Davids won a very similar district in 2018 by 10%. Brad Ashford won the same district in 2014, a much tougher year.

          Well, that's a shame. @justicedems is only about 2 years old. Took 0 corporate PAC money and got 0 press coverage. To compare JD to other groups and pretend the comparison is fair is laughable. The fact that they had any wins on their first go is phenomenal.

          He’s not comparing them to other groups; he’s arguing that they claim to represent a majority, and don’t, as is reflected in their candidates roundly losing.

          Except they are primarying safe blue seats + changing the political game to make swing districts more blue. Their policies are economically left / populist which is in fact extremely popular in America.
