    Yeah, talking about “alpha energy” definitely doesn’t make the speaker look sad and weak. /s

    Even if pandering to the manosphere wasn’t itself incredibly cringe, she’s years out of date on their terminology. Truly this is a demonstration of how she’s got her finger on the pulse of the people.

    And “kings” is very much not a synonym for “oligarchy” and she’s definitely purposefully choosing that rather than something that would continue to offend the uber-wealthy.

      a phrase she said doesn’t resonate beyond coastal institutions

      The crowds at the AOC rallies prove her wrong. It does resonate with people, just not for the pro-business, zionist, reach across the aisle industry-whore constituents Slotkin represents.

      "Everyone you mentioned has a lot of words, but what have they actually done to change the situation with Donald Trump "

      The anti oligarchy tour drew huge crowds and energized an angry base thats rapidly abandoning the democratic party. What has Slotkin done, besides uselessly infight with progressives, push lobbyist interests, and normalize a bunch of language the republicans use? Here she is denigrating “coastal institutions” as out of touch, and in her state of the union rebuttal she said Ronald reagan would be rolling over in his grave. Why is she talking about Ronald Reagan? i’d hope Reagan’s coffin is 1000% full of democrats piss, so I’d be happy if he rotated in that piss all day every day. She sure talks like a republican.

      Slotkin is a shining example of everything thats wrong about the DNC and the current democratic party.
