        Let's be honest - he most likely won't win again. He should go full steam ahead with his agenda and not compromise for conservatives.

        Full steam ahead would excite his base and show him who he's beholden too. Anything less than that and he has zero chance of re-election. Pleasing conservatives might make them like him better, but they'll still vote for the actual conservative every time.

        How long do we 'wait and see' when yet another white Southern Democratic politician seems to be shifting to the right? Remind him NOW and everyday that he can't abandon the people responsible for his victory.

        Then why not wait and see before posting a tweet damning the man for something he hasn't even done?

        Because it puts @GDouglasJones on notice that the people who put him in that seat, and who could keep him there in the next election, are watching.

        I get it - but then put him on notice straight up - don't tweet hearsay.

        Maybe you should speak to him personally as well. This assumption has already started to take off on social media. If not true, nip it in the bud.

        Just want to clarify, I'm not saying that to be snide, it's just that we live in such a precarious age of disinformation, rumors take off like jets.

        He should use the 4/5ths rule to fill those positions based on the demographic that propelled him to victory. Putting more black women and men into those positions than their white counterparts.

        But you didnt “wait and see” . Instead you spread a rumor without checking any sources at best or a known lie at worst and chose to divide us rather thsn work for real progressive causes. Again. @ThisIsLaurenY transition team says it is patently false. But you knew that.

        Actually, you accused him first, then retweeted dozens of replies that seemed to agree that it was a fait accompli THEN you said that you would wait and see. hmmmm... I'm not liking this.

        We can wait and see...but this is the 2nd alarm now...the first being that he'd "consider voting with Rs". Hope this isn't a pattern of him telegraphing his plans... #staywoke #dougjones
