We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas!
Always thought it was a joke. Never realized it was a prophecy.
I’d like a list of the attendees because the results read like a bunch of bluedogs getting together to fuck everyone over harder.
Oh, yep!
The gathering — organized by Third Way, the centrist Democratic think tank, and operated by Chatham House Rules — resulted in five pages of takeaways, a document Playbook obtained from one of the participants. (Not all attendees endorsed each point.)
As a voter, “Third Way” doesn’t represent me in any way and Joe Manchin can take his think tank and shove it.
Meanwhile, Politico over here is misrepresenting them as being something they’re not.
It was the creation of 3rd way under Bill Clinton that helped turn the Democrats into a party that shifted from people like Jimmy Carter to those embracing the Cheneys.
Politico was also a recipient of USAID, so of course everything they report has a propaganda spin to it.
AKA “we are going to join in on fucking over trans people”.
What do you expect from a “centrist think tank?” This is just Politico helping Third Way trying to pull everyone further to the right.
A playbook for how to lose future elections
They see Republicans winning and their only fucken idea is to become them. Give me your fucken seat at the DNC. I’m rabid.
That’s been the game plan for Democrats since Bill Clinton, pushed Republicans further to the right, and the Democrats fill the void left by Republicans. Rinse and repeat since the 1990s.
