Agreed, they are at best temporary allies.

And even then we must be careful. Her philosophy of trying to woo disaffected GOPers was directly or indirectly adopted by the Harris campaign in 2024 which I believe to be one of the main things leading to her loss.

What a load of horse shit. Even in the first seven or 10 minutes, everything Hassan piker said was pretty much undone by his own video clip.

The people at the bulwark never miss an opportunity to discuss how they are all former Republicans, and how much they regret Trump. But Piker’s read here is both absurd and sounds like a tantrum. It’s just a bad take.

He accuses, particularly Sarah Longwell, of some sort of unrelenting attack on him, and as someone who watches and reads a lot from the bulwark, I don’t recall her, mentioning him more than once or twice, and only because he was in the news when he was campaigning with Al Sayed in Michigan— when everyone was asking, “what the fuck is Hasan piker doing campaigning with Al Sayed?“. This comes off more like piker heard Sarah Longwell say something not nice about him once, and now he’s mad.

As for piker, he’s got plenty of his own baggage and credibility issues. And if you’re twitch streaming all day long, sometimes you have to drudge the bottom of the barrel for something to fill the time and be mad about.
