▲ 16 ▼ Michelle Obama once said when they go low we go high. Meaning the republicans go low. What would be the equivalent of the Democrats going low instead of high ground?

The party put its weight behind Cuellar, who won the primary by something like 500 votes. Centrists at the time, having forced through the anti-choice anti-labor nra-backed candidate they wanted, pretended that the party's protection was because he was an incumbent and not just because they were trying to shut out progressives. Then the party did nothing in 2024 to protect incumbents Cori Bush and Jamaal Bowman. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Archer@lemmy.world 1 point 5 months ago Glusenkamp Perez is just a POS but Schrier is disappointing. She’s a fucking doctor and a Dem! permalink fedilink source parent
