I think he can pull an upset and it'll be huge...unless of course the DNC does their "magic".

Are you kidding me and from Nancy's seat no way I am 99.9% sure no upset is happening it'll be a cake walk and besides I don't think a lot of people vibe with progressive values it's overblown TBH and I know you feel very passionately about progressive values but I don't think a lot of people want a overhaul and the taxes on people's salaries and income will be crazy too, maybe healthcare is a good idea but other than that I don't thing they have other good plans

Isn't that the bay area? that's a woke area but large portion of the population are millionaires I don't think a socialist will win easily lol. Good to see Pakistani politicians in the US, just shows how liberal and democratic we are as a people as opposed to our neighbors where vast majority support a monster like Trump because of racist reasons.

Cali is a Donkey state. Any Democrat can win if they contest from there.

Lol weird for years Indians hated Republicans because of their bias towards Pakistanis irrespective whatever makes everyone sleep at night.

That's what I was thinking too but you know that's the world we live in I guess
But Pak is hated by both parties tbh so it doesn't really matter but Pak as a nation always had a good relationship with US during republican years from Trump and bush to Reagan but pak-americans mostly vote blue

 

[Bigboii]

Maybe good is a lil OTT but you know above average relationship I guess?

Agree with you on this.

Not many people care too much about progressive values. They only care about themselves. Having said that, all countries deserve good healthcare system.

Pakistani-Americans traditionally voted Republican until 9/11 and are now solidly blue like most other minorities.
