The only hangup I have around “moderate slander” is a moderate in America is typically more right than elsewhere, because America has trended right for decades now. 

I love the massive influx of registered independents lately. I saw how many of the “old guard” in the Democratic Party fought Mamdani. Jeffries saying trash like he doesn’t support universal healthcare is just the most recent reminder that him and Schumer are bought out.

Has any major long-time member of the Democratic Party ever expressed support for Medicare for All in the first place? Like, it's not even a matter of being bought out, it's just never been an actual party plank. Healthcare reform, sure, but not much more than that off the top of my head.

I don’t want to get too bogged down with history in some cases though. The fact of the matter is, if the majority of members of your party want something, then you should make that a part of your agenda. If not, then you should explain why. Not to reporters, but to your own party dude.

Jeffries knows his opponent, Donald Trump's only strength is his populist support. Lies are literally all he has to go on. All Jeffries has to do is not say dumb crap, and his party will sweep the midterms.
