It is perfectly normal to blame dementia for behavior that looks like dementia

It is NOT normal to have a president that is eligible to be impeached and removed under numerous clauses of the Constitution, face no resistance

IRS has been saying this.

The Trump Administration will bankrupt this country.

Hillary Clinton suffered TEN HOURS of grueling nonsense questioning like a professional

These people can't answer a simple yes or no without flying off the handle about how everyone hates Trump (a classic TDS symptom)

"How veterans abuse the VA" is textbook propaganda reporting though

Like, I can't respect WP when they print tripe like this, you'd get better reporting from The Enquirer

It seems clear—I think to everyone, now—that a false and illegal invocation of the Insurrection Act is coming before the end of the year. Media outlets should be telling us how they will prepare for this potential Treason. State governments should be telling us. Activists should be developing plans.

So adorably naive to assume that Democrats are going to follow through on their political rhetoric in this discussion about how Democrats and rhetoric have a strained relationship

The number of Democrats that ACTUALLY support increasing taxes on the rich can be counted on one hand.

Either you're against fascism, or you're foolish enough to believe it won't come for you.

Those independent voters come at the cost of a significant chunk of the base.

Political calculus my ass, it's about currying favor with the wealthy.

stingleword @stingleword.bsky.social · 2d

Seriously, fucking miss me with the "but talking about fascism isn't politically popular" bullshit

You are losing more votes than you are gaining by not talking about it

No, not when children are being ziptied and carted to who knows where at 3AM it doesn't

I'm a voter and I'm actively repulsed by the lack of on-topic messaging from Democrats. Not talking about the fascism doesn't make it go away or make it less relevant.

Man, everyone told me to use soda pop and I've never had great results, I need to try it with beer instead!

She calls this lack of agency cooperation.

She barges up to a city building with a camera crew, unannounced, and demands to use the bathroom.

Like, yeah, I'd say no too? This is all kinds of wrong

Stop letting conservative media control the narrative, this is step zero to regaining a political foothold. Start with focusing on facts. Not narratives, facts. Skip the narratives, they've heard the narratives, we talk about facts. "Trump says but" is putting yourself on the back foot.

This is the same failed thinking that Democrats need to abandon. You're laser focused on a tiny slice of conservatives that might vote Democrat when there were millions of Never Republicans that stayed home because the Harris campaign was phoned in from even further than Hillary's.

stingleword @stingleword.bsky.social · 2d

Yeah, you don't say. It's a poll run by fascist enablers who wouldn't put anything relating to the topic on a poll unless there were death threats involved.

That's kind of what I'm getting at here. The dice are loaded and Democrats are still gambling on them anyway.

They could all rally around "Constitutional Violations By The Executive" and call it a day, but you won't find that one on any polls!

If the consensus is forming on the economy then why is the shutdown over healthcare? This whole thing is upside down right now. Democrats are scrambling to act like nothing is wrong and seeking political turn points while goons break down peoples' doors and kidnap them in the middle of the night.
