Remember that weird ass Politico poll last week asking folks what they thought about just throwing Black folks' votes under a bus?
A piece of anecdata:
Political consultant: [sharing tea after our zoom ended] So I was in a meeting last week and I need help processing it.
Me: I'm here.
Her: DNC consultants are telling candidates to avoid talking about Black voters having their representation snatched away.
Me: Shut the fuck up.
Her: Yep. The Dems only want folks to talk about the price of gas and affordability.
Me: Those fuckers. They don't want to win ever again, do they?
Her: Nope. I pressed the consultant. Maybe that's a bad strategy, maybe that's not the way to go. And you know what he said?
Me: What?
Her: He said, Look at me. Look at my billables. I'm doing fine.
Me: ASSHOLES.
That's the party, y'all.
That's the Blue Wave that's supposed to save us.
That poll doesnt look so weird now. It looks like a fucking test balloon.
