Or maybe we could wait and see what he actually does
Have now had a few people tell me that they believe Doug Jones, who was propelled to victory by nearly unanimous Black support, is likely to appoint an all-white Senior Staff. He “feels burdened” to appeal to conservatives in Alabama, they say.

I mean, it's hard to believe that "I've had a few people tell me", regarding a future event, qualifies as legit journalism, yet every1 goes wild responding regardless

Do you follow or are you just visiting?

I've followed Shaun for quite awhile and enjoy most of his work.

4/ If they think for a moment that we have let up, gone home and gotten small satisfaction from 1 minor victory (AL, VA) then it’s back to business as usual. It’s right for Shaun to sound the alarm and for us to pay attention. If it’s a false flag ok. But they know we are

In the Black church, we sing "Gonna lay down my burdens (down by the riverside)" & that's EXACTLY what I suggest 2 Jones: Lay down your burdens. Hire African American women 2 lead your staff. You'll be the richer 4 it. Find important positions 4 Black men. Do the right thing.

Anybody ever heard of waiting to see what the man does instead of jumping on him first?

You know, if people are going around telling their elected officials what they want them to do, there are worse things...
-
But....but....you are condemning him for what people BELIEVE he will not do! How convoluted is that?
-
Then he can prove the naysayers wrong and all's well that ends well.

Democrats shooting themselves in the foot again. They are really a lost cause.

Yup. He stopped the bleeding but he’s not a permanent fix.

He's not even in favour of medicare for all or free college. All he has to offer are the Republican lite platitudes you usually hear from plutocratic Democrats. He didn't stop the bleeding: He's simply clogged parts of the open wound. https://medium.com/@LeftistScumbag/doug-jones-is-a-terrible-candidate-acde501603c1 …

Do you live in Alabama? If not STHU and let them decide...

His use of "favour" leads me to believe he lives nowhere near Alabama...

I wasn't referring to him :)
