I feel like the real electoral battle will be the 2026 primaries. How many Mamdanis and AOCs will knock off centrist Dems in safe blue districts. The party base wants a new generation. I may be wrong, but I bet that AOC has a better working relationship with Marie Gluesenamp Perez than Jim Clyburn.

it’s just hard to say. there are a fair number of declared challengers…we’ll just have to see how much traction they get.

Fighting fascism means fighting by every means possible, and then some.

Fascists do not follow Queensbury rules. If dems fear imprisonment by so doing, they are kidding themselves, as if imprisonment comes on the table, then they will be imprisoned anyway.

The rethuglicans are following the same path as Germany, starting in 1930. Now we’re in 1939.

There needs to be more Illinois Governor Pritzkers, speaking plainly and directly.

Democrats SUCK at fighting fascism, and Schmuck Schumer and Chickenshit Jeffries make them look spineless and weak.

WTF do they think Trump is so inexplicably popular? Despite the fact he's none of these things, he's conned a significant percentage of the public into thinking he's STRONG! and DECISIVE! and MANLY!

...rather than a bloated fuck on his last legs deep in cognitive decline with a teeny weenie.
