“Hickenlooper is 74 and says this new term he’s running for will be his last. He’s been in office almost continuously since he was elected mayor of Denver in 2003. He served two terms as mayor and as governor. He seems like a very solid guy. I’m sure I’d like him. But it’s my strong impression that he is very much in the camp of Democratic senators who don’t want to do any of the big necessary things: abolish the filibuster, reform the Supreme Court, fight against encroaching autocracy as opposed to preserve decorum and regular order. In other words, he’s approaching the senate gig as though we were still in the 1990s or perhaps the W. era. To listen to my own oft-repeated arguments, he is the problem. And as I argued a few days ago, this is the kind of thing that has Democratic primary voters on fire now. They want fight.”
Some Thoughts on a Possible Big Primary Upset(s) in Colorado - TPM – Talking Points Memo
From now until the heat death of the universe, I want elected Democrats to beat the shit out of Republicans. No reaching across the aisle, no moving forward together. I want motherfucking consequences and impeachments and ruthlessness.
I want the Republican party, as it exists now and has existed for my entire lifetime, absolutely destroyed. I want every member of this administration put on trial for their endless crimes and corruption. I want the dirty SCOTUS 6 impeached. I want Thomas put on trial for corruption.
I want fighters. I want them to be fucking vicious and I want them to do to the Republican party what Sherman did on his march to the sea.
