If we want to vote them out we need people to back democrats in full this fall and in 2026. Vote for your preferred in the primary and then Dems in general election. None of this purity bullshit until we get a hold on our country.
All these emergencies are self-made by Trump and his gang. We didn't need tariffs; we didn't need a war with Iran; it's all to bring down the USA so that wealthy people have a bigger moat to protect their resources.
Also all corporate Democrats and DINOs. Ones like Schumer, Jeffries, and Pelosi, yes I know she's retiring but others like her. They are nearly as bad as Republicans in terms of their corruption and complicity. Hell pretty much all of congress needs to be flushed away, start over. Let maybe a dozen or so like AOC, Bernie, Ilhan, and Crocket keep their jobs. Unfortunately this will never happen, not without some sort of catastrophic disaster like an actual WW 3 or worse.
@OP are you fucking crazy??? NO!! We need more political parties in our government. Seriously, having them being out votes on all of their greedy shit would be amazing. Also fuck all piece of shit Democrats.
If you see your political color as the good guy and the other political color as the bad guy. You are the fool, you are being fooled. You need to grow the fuck up. Both parties make incredibly good points. But fuck both of those corrupt evil fucks. AOC wouldn't be a Democrat
Low quality trolling. Way too many exclamation points and very boring basic speech. If you're going to attention-seek like this, at least put in some effort :/
I say that’s not enough because democrats of recent haven’t been as helpful as they should be. I say we vote out every congressperson across the board. And because the next runner up won’t be much different than the current member, vote them all out too when it comes up. And if they still don’t get the memo keep voting them all out until they start paying attention. Honestly it’s the way it should have been all along.
Absolutely - defund the corruption! And make it illegal for any foreign interest to influence U.S. elections. We need powerful Sunshine laws to disinfect the system.
In these elections I'm gonna pay close attention to how many Americans think "yes, this is exactly what I wanted, more of this please" and "eh, this doesn't seem particularly bad, I don't care one way or another, whatever you prefer", because I'm genuinely astonished this is a nonzero number.
Not sure what's more depressing, those, or the huge number of people who seem to have no fucking clue about anything that's going on; including many who keep voting for him.
My worry is that that won't be enough. Historically speaking it works like this: Republicans screw everything up. Democrats get voted in to replace Republicans, then refuse to undo anything the Republicans did and instead try to "compromise" and "reach across the aisle" despite having the majority and not needing to do that. Like they seriously try to compromise OUT of a position they purportedly have and can push through with no problem.
It's not really that they "refuse to undo anything" they simply don't have enough votes to get it done. political gridlock happens over and over again with no defined majority in power, which happens in large part because a large portion of American's are uninterested in politics and can't be bothered to vote.
The Senate has been the main blocker. Dems keep the filibuster as the last guardrail against GOP fuckery. Once its gone, GOP majorities will have free rein to really do lasting damage.
Given the way the Senate leans toward small antisocial states, this going to be the GOP's to lose this century, so keeping the filibuster is the system's last ditch.
Frankly even if they DO step in and change things, properly set up the entire country and legal system, and enact exactly the right steps to get back in track, it's still going to suck for a really long time, and even worse, obviously the repugnicunts will highlight the suck and claim it's the fault of the people in charge just like they always have. And their base will listen just like it always has.
And also, if there is a major blue wave, democrats won’t investigate and prosecute everyone who got us here, because they don’t want to “alienate” the MAGA vote, and this could all happen again
This, I think, is what keeps screwing Democrat politicians who get into office, the lack of pursuit of justice for GOP bastardy. This part has *got* to change if we want to be protected better from this kind of fuckery ever happening again.
There won't be a 100% sweep. and even if that could happen, given how elections in America work, it would be another 5 years to every republican leave even if it could happen. Only half of congress has an election later this year, the other half has their elections in 2028. And the ones in 2028 wouldn't be out of office until 2029 if they were elected out of office... And SOME taking office NOW like the Republican that replaced Marjorie Taylor Green likely wouldn't have HIS election until 2030.
Close, Representative serve a 2 yr term while senators serve a 6 year term staggered every 2 years- so outside of special elections, 1/3 of the senators are up for reelection every 2 yrs.
The boat is taking on water. The current captain is drilling holes in the hull, but the other potential captain doesn't really care about the crew. So we'll just say that both captains suck.
To rid yourself of this dictatorship you need 1) the dems to 2) crush the gop 3) that makes room for a progressive opposition. Then you're cooking with gas. This "both sides bad" BS gets you nowhere. Think.
Again. The Joe Biden admin was the most consumer friendly President in my lifetime. Anti-monopoly, tried to make sure you weren't screwed by airlines & the IRS. You know why I know Kamala wouldn't have started a war with Iran? Biden obsessed on what he could to lower oil prices so you wouldn't be screwed at the pumps. It isn't enough to demand good governing if you don't actually value it when you have it.
I felt fine under the leadership of democrats but so many did not that I feel like repeating this call..I'm tired of my party making it all too clear that they are beholden to the billionaire class..that's the bottom line. I hate the end of truth, empathy and dignity.
Take a look at who's spent a shitton of money to make people believe that. Hint: it's Israel and billionaires. They've literally pushed a TON of ads pushing this exact narrative. Take a guess why.

Oh just stop. We need to vote Republicans out and stop this infighting until actual primaries where people can vote for their preferred candidate.
