“Right now” is the time to grind the government to a halt and expose this regime for what they are - lawless and unlawful. There will be no vote unless you make it painful to not have a vote.
You are the opposition party, start acting like it.

Where’s the GOP senate and the 7 Dems who voted with them?
The ball didn’t just “drop” b/c gravity.
I don’t expect much from the Bezos controlled WP. He got his from this admin. Fu** those who need a social safety net.
They benefit from the extraction economy. Time to extract some of their wealth

1) this post was 22 days ago, before the recent elections
2) voters are rejecting republican extremism. I am absolutely thrilled.
3) democrats have not created an effective opposition party (i.e. the Trump regime still acts with lawless impunity)
Both 2 & 3 can be true.

You’re coming in awful hot and late to a convo from 3 weeks ago without doing the reading (Tim Snyder’s argument for a “shadow cabinet”)
And who is the “you” you’re talking about. I voted. I vote. Every time.
I am not your enemy.

“Strong floor. No ceiling”? Fr? The weakest shit I’ve ever heard.
I think something like “Come home to Democracy” creates a stronger image.
We’ve strayed. It’s time to return to where we began.
Creates a vision of where we need to go and a permission structure to go there.

The public has a short attention span and no memory. Too much media is controlled by right wing enthusiasts of authoritarianism and dems think if they just keep their heads down and do a good job legacy media will reward them.
Legacy media is failing us.
And Dems suck at messaging.

That was 9 months ago and Trump has proven to be every bit of a vindictive little dictator he said he would be. I bet Schiff might have changed his mind seeing as how he is in the regime’s crosshairs

Biden was an incredibly successful pres especially given the situation. Trump hammered him on the daily from MAL and corporate media parroted Trump therefore Dems ran away from Biden.
People didn’t like what Trump via the legacy media told them about the Biden economy.
Remember the ‘22 recession?

Republicans are not the party best for the economy. The stats prove it. But voters think they are because they keep telling us they are.

She couldn’t have just left it at Trump? What voice inside her head said “this is a great chance to take a potshot at Biden”? This kind of stuff is why Republicans beat Dems 100% of the time at message discipline.
