Is this progressive politics or Blue MAGA math?
You can only prosecute criminals during your second term. It’s a rule in the Constitution
- I have a product that I want to sell.
- You don’t like that product.
- I’m at risk of being broke because I don’t sell anything.
- It’s YOUR FAULT because you don’t buy what I sell.
I think that’s not the way it works.
Why don’t you share the way you do think it works?
Unless you don’t know anymore of “how it should work” than the people running the show, despite your wish to appear as you do.
It’s cute 😺
Lmao.
You guys still can’t figure out why voters don’t want to turn out? You just assume you’ve won the war of ideas because the only other organized team we’re allowed to have has gone to shit.
Try thinking less like a team and more like someone who wants people to vote for them.
You Must Choose.*️⃣
Choose Democrat -> hope, and a four year reprieve from insane chaos and destruction
Choose RepubliQan -> insane chaos
Choose Third Party -> insane chaos
Choose not to vote -> insane chaos
THERE ARE NO OTHER CHOICES.

Biden was only 600,000 votes behind Trump in 2020 in TX. In fact, he received more votes in TX than in NY. It would be great if they would do something to stir the base here, especially since we have a 2 week voting period with polls open at least 9 hours in the first week and at least 12 hours in the second week.
All it takes is for the Democrat Party to move a bit to the Left or alternatively as this post requests *checks notes* 22 million voters to move to the Right and vote for people such as the current *checks notes* unwavering supporter of a ethno-Fascist regime and ideology currently committing a Genocide which according to a study publish in the Lancet is already estimated to have killed over 180 thousand people, a large fraction of which are children.
It’s not as if the Democrat Party is getting much in the way of votes from their Right, so one has to wonder why exactly is the DNC doing all it can to stop the easy solution of the party having leaders who actually act the suppose Left-of-Center values of the party.
who cares what they actually do? they say they’re democrats so that means they’re the good guys. as long as we vote for the person who isn’t orange man, we win! it’s that simple
as long as we vote for the person who isn’t orange man,
Have you seen Biden lately?
They’re literally both orange now…

If you had won the competition of ideas, voters would turn up lol.
The problem is that both of you are two sides of the same coin. One with the carrot and one with the stick. Your differences are simply not big enough and the positive things you promise are simply too little compared to the damage you do to everyone to be frightened by this stupid lesser evil rhetoric.
I’ll vote for someone who has an even remotely adequate program for the people’s demands. Have a good one👍
Democrats represent the same center-right politics that has ruled America in decades past, though in recent years they’ve been a little bit amenable to progressive policies (see Inflation Reduction Act, which included $783 billion on energy and climate change among other things); this is of course extremely faint praise, but it is what it is.
Meanwhile, the Republican party has detailed plans to orchestrate a fascist takeover.
Support for Israel is controversial within the Democratic party and they’re at least susceptible to militant influence; the Republican party, meanwhile, has no reason to ever moderate their support for a genocide.
Nobody’s happy to vote Democrat, but they absolutely represent the lesser of two evils. This is observable evidence, but it does have the downside that it doesn’t make you look smarter than everyone else, so i understand if you don’t want it.
Controversial support for Israel? The fact that you think there’s any moderation in support for Israel is the problem. The fact that you think the democrats care even remotely for climate change and that they do something about it, besides for show, is the problem.
I don’t care to look smart, I don’t care if I’m smart, I care about my interests. And my interests are not with people who don’t touch billionaires, fund wars and privatise the air I breathe. It’s ok if you don’t care enough, not everyone has the same interests - because our difference is not about who wants to look smart, but who takes the issues I’m talking about seriously enough - who cares enough and who has been impacted the most to understand the consequences of neoliberal politics.
The problem isn’t that there isn’t a lesser evil, of course there is one, one has to be less evil if the two are not the same. But rather that the lesser evil is too evil.
Ok well if there’s a lesser evil then that’s a settled question, you vote for the lesser evil. This is the sad reality of electoral politics.
Electoral politics can’t advance the causes we care about, but they can prevent the worst case scenario, which is absolutely worth it and we have a moral duty to do it.
