BUT WE HAVE DON'T HAVE THAT and we have the #electoralcollege
enuff of your mittens, I mean, damn emails, I mean #Biden bashing!
#Trump is a #demagogue and #pathologicalliar and it’s time to stop the bickering and nit-picking
#LloydDoggett, a Texas Democrat, has called for President #JoeBiden to withdraw from the #2024 election, citing concerns over Biden's performance and the need for a stronger candidate to face #Trump. Democrats like #AndrewYang and journalist #NicholasKristof echo this sentiment, suggesting that Biden's debate performance indicates a need for new leadership within the party. They propose potential replacements such as Governor #GretchenWhitmer and Senator #SherrodBrown.

#AndrewYang hätte US-Präsident werden sollen. Aber nein, die da drüben wählen immer nur die gleichen alten Säcke, mit denen sich wenig bis gar nichts oder zum Schlechteren ändert. Eigentlich typisch #Politik im Allgemeinen.
Why US politics is broken, and how to fix it.

(Though we also need to address gerrymandering.)
For one year, low-income families in Austin, Texas, received $1,000 a month to do whatever they wanted; they spent it on rent and “substantially" improved their situations.

#BillAckman poured huge pile of $$ into #DeanPhillips campaign. And then Ackman “educated” Phillips. (Author calls Phillips “malleable”.) After which Phillips then deleted #DEI reference from campaign website. #AndrewYang is another “educator”. And — (my comment) with dismal showing in NH against someone whose name didn’t appear on ballot — apparently Phillips is now considering third-party candidacy.

A society overflowing with guns and drugs. Politicians who would rather cater to the extreme fringes of their parties instead of the country as a whole.

@Mathemagician @brainwane Apologies. The mathematical context of the toot was as an analogy, which was explained. The hashtag #MATH is also used in political contexts, beginning with #AndrewYang , and means ‘Make America Think Harder’. Again, sorry for the appropriation.

@bvalimont no. Andrew Yang’s cult who refuses to call out the extremism of the far right by both siding things. You will help them win you cultists. #andrewyang cult. #ForwardParty

Not coming out as soon as you thought, but still coming soon. Some of them are already on the road. And Covid gave the logistics industry a huge "shove" to get going with them. (Post-Covid, there are still issues with finding enough drivers.)
Tesla was one of the major forces for them, but now Elon is distracted with his new toy.
The biggest obstacles are laws in some states that do not allow #SelfDrivingVehicles.

@moira also a reminder that #AndrewYang hung out with and endorsed the #IntellectualDarkWeb
@thehill @edgeoforever I am ashamed (but grateful for the learning opportunity) to have wasted my 2020 California primary vote on #AndrewYang.
