White House plans to withdraw Tanden nomination

12. I saw her getting flack from some people on the left.

I wasn't really compelled by their arguments. I expect that stuff from the right, but I there is a pretty large number of people from the left who are being very unreasonable. It's as if they forget it's not a dictatorship in which they get everything they want, even if it's not how many democrats feel, and for sure not how the people further right may feel. We don't exactly have a huge majority here. Actually, it's not the criticism that bothers me. I welcome that. It's the lack of any practical ideas to get what they want, or any real attempt to convince people that their ideas are best.

I was defending AOC and Ilhan Omar from attacks coming from the left, because don't seem to have any interest in how stuff works, or working with their fellow democrats.
