I think the only plausible scenario that would draw away enough voters for the party to actually get replaced would be for a social democrat or progressive to win the presidential primary but the party leadership takes it away with convention or superdelegate shenanigans. If AOC runs, it might happen.

I think the optics of “we did everything we could” will be important, if it comes to that.

If they outlaw congressional stock trading, I’m fine with them doubling their salary.

Democrats have, again, learned nothing

They already know full well they need to make a populist shift to win. They’d rather lose than alienate big money.

Put the hat on other parts of his body. Problem solved.

I’m not a gun person, but it seems to me like anyone who claims they can shoot down a drone with a rifle is also revealing themselves to not be a gun person.

There might be something to that… Is it illegal to forge a doctor’s note? If so, you’ll just need to keep a doctor on retainer.

No. Stop. Don’t.

The thing that made me so pessimistic about the future of this country was when I learned that the people who advised Hillary’s 2016 campaign were still advising Harris’ 2024 campaign. They failed multiple times and the consequences have been catastrophic, but they held on to their positions anyway. I have no reason to think they won’t be back in 2028, because the people who have a say in who gets party leadership are people selected by the old leadership. We need a borderline hostile takeover of the Democrat party, and after Trump did it to the Republicans, the existing powers in the Democrat party only entrenched themselves further.

This country is totally capable of fighting off creeping fascism. It’s the Democrat leadership that’s not up to the task.

The problem is the right-wing propaganda mill that they all trust more than even friends and family, which will furiously insist it’s anything but Dearest Leader’s fault.

They must be like me to earn the right to live.

That’s not progressivism you’re thinking of.

Okay but which great house does Marx join?

Edit: Trick question, he’d be an ashlander.

No matter how you pander, the Chinese market doesn’t want your pizzas either, Domino’s.

Oh, geez, I saw a slightly brown leaf of lettuce. Guess I’d better throw the whole salad away and heat up a corn dog or three.

“Before we go… Can I have your autograph? I’m a big fan.”

~Death, probably.

They’re so ahead of the times!

Who’s to say you can’t get conscripted out of prison to die in the climate wars?

Not ironic at all. It’s by design.

He’s just obeying the programming they input by naming him “Rocket”
