Bullock isn't a right winger, he's very much an economic progressive. The difference is he will talk about bread and butter issues instead of divisive social issues like the urban NYC wing wants

Yes, divisive urban NYC issues like... unemployment, rent prices, infrastructure issues, gentrification, police brutality, and income inequality.

Some of you Dems who pull the whole "identity politics" BS are worse than the Republicans who do it.

Exactly. Thank you.

Gay/black/Hispanic/women's rights are not "identity politics". This are real issues that affect the economic and social lives of millions of Americans and their families.

For example, if you can be fired in 30/50 states simply for being LGBT, that's a civil rights AND economic issue. If you could be denied housing for being LGBT that's a civil rights AND economic issue. If you are paid less than men for the same job because you're a woman that's a civil rights AND economic issue.

Dismissing it as a "divisive issue" is wrong and abhorrent.
