If we have learned one thing about Trump’s base, it should be to not confuse attitudes expressed in approval ratings with any potential change in their voting patterns. Millions of Trump voters openly disapproved of his performance and personality across his three campaigns. Yet they would never consider an alternative that shared power with people of color and required relinquishing the full public authority of their whiteness.

Andrew Cuomo's former Chief of Staff Melissa DeRosa went on Fox News last night and called Brad Lander, who is Jewish, a "Parasite with the goal of taking over the Democratic Party and killing it."
This is actual Nazi rhetoric and I've heard zero people condemn this for the barbaric antisemitism that it is. Apparently criticizing a lobbying org is antisemitic, but literally calling a Jewish elected official a "Parasite that will kill" is legitimate political discourse. Indefensible.
