WELKER: As Democratic leader in the House, would you vote for or against Medicare for All?
JEFFRIES: It’s not legislation that I currently am co-sponsoring or that I support, but I support the notion we’ve got to find a path forward to fix our broken healthcare system
What about a demsoc Mexico?
I think the average american doesn’t really think of Mexico as a real country in the way they think of european countries as countries, and so it wouldn’t have much weight on political discussions the way it would if we had socialist France or something.
I think the US DemSocs would platform it. One of them did that today (directly reference Sheinbaum as elevating the living standards of the Mexican people) when he was being interviewed on Fox News. If you live in the States “didn’t you hear Mexico is getting universal Healthcare?” Is a great conversation starter.
China is being taken more seriously by the US left every day, and that’s been US since covid and ramping up in the past 3 years with things like the tiktok/rednote crossover. I think with the way things are going (“the results speak for themselves”), Mexico will have an even easier time. They just need to give CDMX some more shinies and maybe get a sports team, and it’s guaranteed to have cultural weight. I think there is a good spot Mexico will be a really hot tourism destination in 10 years (it already is obv, but I think you know what I mean)
The US is pretty persistent at rolling back any progress made to their south
That’s exactly the kind of activity that will rouse a true socialist revolution. I’ll certainly be joining the second Mexican American war on the side of Mexico. What an opportunity!
