Why do the 2O25 elections seem so consequential on a national level?
It is not just a referendum on the last nine months of Republican rule

I wish I knew how to get a proposition on the California ballot instructing the legislature to begin negotiations with the U.S. Congress to secede from the Union
Considering this would mean a Red USA forever, I would bet they would go for it if we offered them enough money

Every time you buy a $20 pizza you set fire to another two $1 bills
This is to incentivize you to make your own pizza at home and stop spending money at the pizza parlor
The pizza parlor doesn't care about the $2 you set on fire
Might care about your attitude

In the history of religion, the greatest conflicts, very on homicidal, were between sects with the very slightest differences of opinions.
With all the Democrats now bowing the knee to the Imperial Presidency, I am starting to think that the same is true of Democrats and Republicans
