A politician you can actually get behind: Krist Novoselic

This guy absolutely gets it. I love his vision, his perspective, and his message. The interview below doesn’t get much into his personal childhood. I saw him speak a couple months ago and he talked about going back to live with family in Yugoslavia(?) for a while, and basically talking about how much better we have it here in the US.
“I’m a recovering Democrat.”
The Cascade party is the voice of sanity. It’s anti-Trump but not obsessed with being anti-Trump. It’s anti-super majority tax-you-to-oblivion because that’s not effective.
Vote for Krist! You owe it to yourself to spend 25 minutes watching this.

Of course the end game of Bammer’s political ramblings is a former grunge star.

He was actually wearing those when I saw him speak recently. Guy is the real deal.

Nobody who wants power should be allowed to have it. All political positions should be filled by lottery.

Nice in theory, but it’d be like jury duty where everyone tries to get out of it. Except for the psychos who want the power.

Correct, wouldn’t work in practice.
It’s cool Krist and tommy come up with these ideas in an attempt to stay relevant, but that’s all it is.

I bet he’d let a trans girl play against your daughter’s basketball team, Bammer.
