“You know what’s interesting about this group is that I’ve been doing this for thirty years. I know what I’m doing. You come in here and you say it has to be my way or the highway. I don’t respond to that.” - Dianne Feinstein

      Sen. Dianne Feinstein wants her seven grandchildren to die. Sen. Dianne Feinstein doesn’t care about anyone but herself. Sen. Dianne Feinstein is a danger to little kids.

      Edit: So apparently she died. Thank goodness.

      Anyone over 70 cannot understand what young people are facing. They are already out of touch. Anyone above that is even worse.

      Hell, my father is 70 and still thinks you can get a job by walking up to a desk and you can get a instant interview.

        Yes and she died at 90, a sitting Senator.

        We have ourselves to blame though. Literally. People kept voting for her.

            “It’s us or the horror of Trump!”

            You’ve articulated the Democratic elite party line perfectly. Chef’s kiss. They have you by the brain stem.

            As if there have been no other promising Democrats in California primaries for 30 years… SMH

              I’m not American, I’m Canadian and we pretty much have the same issue here, it was vote for Trudeu again, AGAIN. or vote whatever stinky, wet noodle they had running up against him. Feinstein stayed in power because she was essentially unopposed. Nobody of merit wanted to lose face by going up against her. Voting for a republican is not an option, so the only other option is to not vote for any of them. Which is what I did in the last Canadian election, I made it clear that my vote was cast for nobody on purpose, which is tracked as a purposely botched vote, which at least lets the person in power know they are not liked either

                You’re right the party apparatus becomes a barrier. They wayyy overplayed their hand with her. I’m sure that election after election they told themselves “it’s more important to win this time than pave the way for the future.”

                And I’m sure that election after election she told herself “I’ll keep serving as long as the voters tell me to,” probably willfully oblivious to the fact that the fix was in on her behalf.

    I mean, I’m not about people dying, but being so fucking old and holding onto power with a rotted hand is fucking tiring. I’m glad she’s gone and look forward to the future and hopefully with someone with more progressive views.

    This is Diane Feinstein’s legacy: self centered destruction of the climate and the economy.

    I never knew this good, helpful, fighting for the people Diane Feinstein I’ve been hearing about in all these eulogy articles. Throughout my entire adult life, she’s been nothing but a career politician who fights for herself and refuses to step aside for the young generation.

    Whatever good she produced is clearly far in the rearview mirror, cause to me she was nothing but a politician who should have been gone long ago.
