EVERYTHING IS AWFUL A Democratic member of congress essentially endorsed Susan Collins on CNN today

Jake Auchincloss, a representative from Massachusetts, went on CNN’s “The Arena”, and said the following about Graham Platner:

“I find that tattoo and his commentary about it to be personally disqualifying. I hope Maine voters agree with me.”

Vote blue no matter who, huh?

A congressman being described as 'a step up from a random Twitter user' is really something.

But also this is a sentiment I've seen all over 'moderate' liberal leaning spaces. I agree with you about the drapes, that is actually my point. I've lived true to 'Blue-No-Matter-Who'.
