If you are in town, let’s meet for lunch to hang out 

See the list of 10 valid points of North Africa sex tourism:  01. There is no escort market 02. A guy available yesterday for a price X is no longer available today for the double price as he is engaged with family or friends or because of rainy weather  03. A chaos and delay are everywhere  04. Tons of emails in grindr mean guys are desperate to find an easy victim and has nothing to do with hot sex 05. A guy that is explicitly offering u sex is either a complete zero or an owner of a small and soft dick or looking to rob u u or simply drink your whiskey and nothing more 06. The best fuckers are stupid uneducated country side guys that barely speak any foreign language or Arabs on vacation in another Arab country  07. Wrong selection of an appartement might trigger your immediate and rude departure initiated by an owner  08. Quality of everything is very difficult to find (dental service, cleaning, nice appartement, sex, etc) 09. A guy who was nice , polite and hot might rob u next time 10. Owners of a big dick don't ussualy have a body, great body owners are't hot in bed , have a small dick, educated guys aren't ussualy hot and masculine 

You may also be right that it will be this quasi-Independent force.  Roosevelt was a Republican, mostly.  But he did form the Bull Moose Party, aka the Progressive Party.  And it was a springboard for a lot of progressive ideas that played out for decades to come, in reaction to out of control capitalism. I think we are stuck - both Democrats as a party and the US as a nation -  for as long as we have these red states like Iowa and Montana and North Dakota that reflexively elect Republicans only these days.  Jon Tester, Democrat of Montana, is someone I sent money to for several cycles.  In 2018, he won.  In 2024, he lost.  He allegedly texted someone and said the party brand was like "poison" to him in Montana.  Duh! Tester slams Democrats, voices support for potential independent in Senate race I agree with Tester.  We have two strong Independent candidates running this cycle who are kinda sorta Democrats, in Montana and Nebraska.  There was a time, not that long ago, when moderate Democrats could win in those states as moderate Democrats.  Such a time could exist again in the not too distant future, after Trump's mess ends. The thing I liked about people like Jon Tester and Heidi Heitkamp and Claire McCaskill (recent moderate Democrats who won and then lost in Montana, North Dakota, and Missouri) is that they mostly kept their mouths shut and played as team players, knowing that the AOC/Bernie end of the party was a drag on them.  We need both to win.  And that is clearer then ever.  Had we had those three Senators in the US Senate in 2022 we could have had permanent child tax credits.   That would have cut working class child poverty in half for Whites, Blacks, and Hispanics.  That is better than $1 billion ballrooms if Democrats want to win power and keep it for a while.  Like AMLO did in Mexico by focusing on people's pocketbooks and keeping the college-educated woke crowd at bay.  Disclaimer:  I am part of the college-educated woke crowd, but I recognize that I am NOT a majority.  My actual woke college professor was named Paul Wellstone.  And he ended a long Democratic drought in Minnesota in 1990 by being the woke college professor who rode economic populism to the US Senate.  Tim Walz was an acolyte of progressive training school Wellstone Action.  The formula works! Then we have money whores like Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema.  I might be arguing against myself by saying i want moderate Democrats, but not Manchin and Sinema.  They are moderates.  But they are also pocket sucking money whores who suck up lobbyist money.  And they were never really good team players.  Even though they claimed to be.  At least with Sinema it worked out well.  We got rid of that pocket sucking money whore and replaced her with Ruben Gallego, who is a team player and will fight for progressive stuff.   Talarcio kind of falls in that category in Texas.  He is running as a Democrat.  But he is branding himself as young and fresh and independent. If any of these three can win, either as a Democrat or an Independent, I think that's good news.  Maybe people are getting sick of the craziness. One reason I like Gavin Newsom is he can and will tell people on the left - like me - to go fuck ourselves.  He has a good enough radar for the center that he can maintain popularity while appeasing the left on some things.  Maybe Kamala Harris or others can do that.  But Newsom has proven it in California.  So my hope is by 2028 someone like Newsom or Harris gets elected POTUS.  And can also get a stable Senate majority, which in theory could include some "red state" Independents.  I think Carney is proving adept at the same thing in Canada.   Then again, maybe it's time for a Bull Moose Party again!
