He proved he was objectively delusional to think a Trump presidency would be better for progressives ... that it would lead to a progressive wave which would "for sure" take the house and senate in 2018, and the presidency in 2020 ... that Republicans would join with the left to obstruct a Trump agenda ... that Trump filling multiple scotus seats was as likely as the moon falling into Lake Michigan. He proved he was operating outside of reality when he claimed Stein, who was only on the ballot in like 10 states, had a shot.
AOC just got done campaigning for Bernie and backed 20 other progressives, helping to remove a few more corporate Dems and add a few more M4A yes votes to congress. To make out like that's a worse ally than ancap Boogaloos is actually insane. Getting a guaranteed to fail vote on M4A was supposedly supposed to be useful in pressuring or replacing those opposed. Progressives get the $15 to stay in for a round of voting, and suddenly that's not useful in going after those opposed, but instead useful in continuing to shit on progressives.
There's gaslighting, and then there's actually being delusional. Sam was right on the mark, predicting the reality of multiple scotus seats being filled. So, obviously Jimmy was gaslighting. Jimmy has been proven to be delusional, and is therefore actually delusional.

@andyc.9751 You Dore knobs don't grasp basic math, so don't actually grasp leverage. There are zero extra votes to be gained to the left of the party. Therefore, it is absolutely, 100%, impossible to pass a bill, if you lose Manchin's vote. On the other end, there is the entire Republican party to try and gain extra votes from, if you lose squad votes. By moving a bill to the right, and picking up enough Republican votes, squad votes aren't needed.
You're either a liar, or a dimwit. AOC was just campaigning for Nina, trying to add another M4A yes vote to congress, because getting enough yes votes is the only possible way to ever pass the bill. Dore, on the other hand, abandoned Nina, abandoned adding another M4A yes vote to congress. So, which is it, liar or dimwit?

Oh, wow, he predicted Pelosi would be Pelosi? Such insight. Who said Pelosi wouldn't be Pelosi?
How is taking out a few more corporate Dems and adding a few more M4A yes votes to congress, in the election cycle that just passed, not fighting for M4A? It's exactly what needs doing to ever pass the bill, exactly what would still need doing even if there was a failed vote. If that doesn't count as fighting, then Dore's own "plan" was to have a failed vote and then not fight.
Oh, wow, he predicted Biden would be Biden? Such insight. Who said Biden wouldn't be Biden?
So, he has pointed out the obvious, and slandered those actually advancing M4A, even if it's not happening as fast as you fantasize it happening. Such talent.

@WanderingIdiot81 Helping to increase the number of M4A yes votes in congress is action. It's exactly the kind of action that would still need doing even if there was a 100% guaranteed to fail performance art vote. Pretending it's inaction is dishonest.
The $15 got a vote, actually passed the house (M4A didn't have a chance in hell), that Pelosi and the squad are members of, and also got a senate vote. Suddenly, just getting a vote on an important progressive policy, and getting a list of no voters, is completely useless ... just keep bitching about, and slandering, those who voted for it. FTVers have proven FTV was a sham, and that they're pathetic useless hypocrites.
The capitol police don't actually patrol the streets enforcing the law. It's more of a security guard and bodyguard force. Pretending they're totally equivalent to a standard police force is dishonest.
Piss off with the Israel bullshit. The squad have repeatedly voted against individual bills to send money to Israel, have introduced bills to put conditions on aid to Israel, have introduced bills against anti-BDS laws. They split votes on an annual foreign aid bill, of which Israel was a small percentage. It wasn't a straight up, Israel only, bill. The bill also included aid to Palestinians, as well as almost $60b in aid elsewhere.

@WanderingIdiot81 Man, you're dishonest. AOC used her platform and PAC to back 20 other pro-M4A progressives. She has always been friends with, and supported, Cori. The issue with that primary was politics, and the fact that Clay had signed onto the Green New Deal, so she didn't give her official endorsement and donation to Cori until the general. I get that Dore knobs don't care about burning bridges, but if Clay had won, AOC would still want that GND vote.
In what reality do you think Manchin, and the other dipshit senators, would change their minds? If the senate and house disagree, then the bill goes to house-senate negotiation. Manchin could have offered concessions, and lowered the minimum to $10 (as some Republicans had proposed), to pick up enough Republican votes to ignore the squad. Where can the squad get extra votes from, if they lose Manchin's vote? There is the entire Republican party for Manchin to try and draw extra votes from, to the right of the party. There are zero extra votes to the left of the party. They don't have anywhere close to the same amount of power and leverage.
Because corporate Dems outright running against M4A isn't enough? Them not signing onto the bill isn't enough? Again, FTVers proved they're pathetic useless hypocrites. They've already shown that they don't actually value getting a vote and getting a list of no voters. FTV was a complete sham.
Progressives got the $15 to stay in for a round of voting. Not sure what other squad members asked for, but Pelosi did give AOC a shot at that committee seat she wanted. Those who voted, stabbed her in the front exactly because she had fought them and backed progressives against them in the primaries. Dore knobs then stab her in the back, falsely claiming she isn't fighting, even lying that she didn't back progressives in the primaries.
She, and Bernie, were just backing Nina, campaigning for her, promoting M4A while they were at it, and trying to add another M4A yes vote to congress. Meanwhile, Dore abandoned Nina and abandoned adding another M4A yes vote to congress, and then slandered AOC and Bernie, claiming they were the ones who abandoned M4A. He's a dishonest grifter.
