Those are battles lost.To win the war, we have to keep on fighting. Democrats are the minority Party with only a small say in the government.To change that, and make Dems the majority Party, we have to vote for Democrats.It's simple math.If you stay home, or vote against Dems, you lose your Country.

Well, you'll have a choice in '26. You can stay home and sit on your hands, you can vote for the Fascists to continue their cruelty forever, or you can bite your lip, and vote for the Democratic candidate that will get us back to the democracy that we all know. One battle loss does not lose a war.

We still have the rest of the war to fight. You of all people know that one battle loss does not mean you lose the war.

Support the candidates that did not cave. That's how you continue fighting.

Where you gonna go? Are you going to let one perceived loss stop you from fighting against the Fascists in power? We're still in a war with a cruel and depraved government. Some battles are lost and some are won. We must not let one battle loss stop us from resisting. Keep supporting democracy!!

Well, my understanding is SNAP will begin again for millions of Americans. That is a win. The ACA benefits are to be negotiated. Whether this happens, remains to be seen. Let's not stone them yet. We must continue to support the Democratic Party, if we are to save America.

So now it's "over", but we have to keep fighting for Democrats. If the GFP stays in power after '26, then there is no hope for America to ever come back.

This was a lose/lose. If the Dems held out, millions of people would not be getting food help for an indefinite period. Those of us that don't depend on SNAP, would be fine. If they gave in, then SNAP would be restored, but ACA would still be on the chopping block. It's hard to say which was right.

Fine, as long as they get replaced with a Democrat that can beat the Republican. Risky business to knock down a well known Senator, just for revenge. Be careful what you wish for!

"The ball is right in front of you Mr. President" "Is it that little white thing on the grass?" "Yes, you hit it with the end of that stick in your hand" "I knew I was here for a reason, but I just can't seem to remember what".

ICE agents that break local laws should be arrested and charged.

This is the sick result of a sick POTUS in power. Indiscriminate arrests of anyone that can't fight back. We are on the cusp of a revolution in America. People will only take so much before they rebel.

Soon we will have an A.I. President, to prevent the real POTUS from being seen in person.

"They should learn to fish!" After all, isn't that what Jesus kind of said? Yeah, but I don't think he meant for people to starve. If you live in the desert, or in the middle of Manhattan, there aren't a lot of fish around.

He is a sociopath that couldn't care less about the American people. All of his energy is focused on how he can promote himself for more money and more power. At some point, even MAGAts will begin to realize what a horrible person they voted for, and only the most devoted will stay on his side.

$500,000 is pocket change. $500 million would have at least got him to notice.

A lot of people don't realize that Vance is missing one major factor, and that is charisma. He has the charisma of a worm.No one respects him,and the MAGAts won't follow him.The fact is that without the First Felon, MAGA just won't be the same.They may be just as nasty, but they will have no leader.

No one is talking about the amount of holiday traffic because of flight cancellations. Everyone I know is planning on driving instead of flying. That is going to be a giant shit show IMHO.

How can there be less crime, with a criminal running the Country? What he perceives as crime, is not, and what he doesn't see as crime, actually is.

As usual, this is only half true. It is up to Congress to raise or lower tariffs, which are a direct tax on the American people. It's not up to the POTUS.

These folks in the First Felon's administration,are all wealthy. The fact that groceries and just about every other consumer product,are higher, has no affect on them. The fact that there's a 20% drop in airline flights, does not affect them, because they fly private. Let's face it. They don't care!

This is the only way the GFP wins. That is to cheat. They know that the Democrats stand for democracy, and the GFP stands for Fascism, and support of a king. The people don't want that. Only the oligarchs and the wealthy support the idea, because it creates a feudal system with them at the top.
