I disagree. It was a deliberate marketing tactic to engender online outrage - which it did - drove up attention and their stock price. IRS a deliberate corporate tactic these days. No one was talking about that brand before that.!

lol, is this the hard pill to swallow when folks were acting like they lived through trump once so it won’t be that bad just for folks to realize that they have gone from single issuing over Gaza to now not being able to afford healthcare?

I know yall legitimately aren't intelligent people so I'm going to ask again if there's a defense or spin the centrist stooges have settled on yet or are you guys still brainstorming?
In not concerned because this isn’t doesn’t affect me.
But if it did, I’m sure I’d have been out protesting and putting pressure on republicans to change their tunes and pressuring my reps to keep the government closed assuring them that the inconveniences are thing I’m willing to deal with him hopes that republicans decide they are going to change course and not do exactly what they campaigned on.
God speed. Vote better in the future.

sure thing. right after the Palestine stooges apologize for being stupid enough to prioritize a 2,000 year old foreign war over domestic American issues
i'm confused why you're surprised by republicans governing like republicans. because i sure didn't hear any of this "we have to protect obamacare, guys" talk back when "genocide joe" wasn't worth voting for, to stop trump from being in power

the hard truth is that the Dems shouldn't have shut the government down in the first place. because the idea that they could have forced or shamed Republicans in power into extending covid era ACA subsidies, was never going to happen. ever. this isn't a "cave", it was the obvious result from day 1
so how this should have went, is the Dems voted for the CR. and then, if Republicans don't fund Obamacare to the right level in the December negotiation; you run on that in 2026. and 2028. because that's how the political seesaw works
Bro those guys were just calling Obamacare trash and we’d be better off getting rid of it.
Even the Matty Iglesias and Ezra Kleins of the world are saying this folding is inexcusable, they folded specifically over the filibuster nothing else

there's going to be a debate and negotiation over what level to fund Obamacare in december, so you're probably right
i don't think the subsidy will be as high as Dems want. i also don't think it will be zero

has anyone in history made an earlier push for the nomination? Newsom started the '28 primary on January 21st
