@jeffjarvis @ElisaC True. I do feel it's a major problem that liberals and the left have no ideological mass media equivalent to FOX News to defend and promote ideas on health care, immigration, climate, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

I imagine if Stacey Abrams decides to run for president she'll likely have a more moderate policy platform than Warren, Harris, and Sanders, which is probably one reason she might be open to being Biden's VP. She and Beto also want to keep door open to statewide runs in GA + TX. — PolitiTweet.org

If US elections worked like New Zealand's, Hillary would have become prime minister in 2016 and formed a coalition with Bernie and they would have banned assault weapons, raised the minimum wage, & expanded health care. Instead, Republicans won the House, Senate, and presidency. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2017, New Zealand's Labour Party won 37% of the popular vote, formed a coalition government with an anti-immigrant party, and then passed gun control laws. In 2016, Democrats won the popular vote and lost the House, Senate, & presidency plus lost 2 seats on the Supreme Court. — PolitiTweet.org
