Still thinking the people to blame are the DNC elites that went on to run on a right platform, even inviting fucking war criminal mass murderer Dick Cheney to advocate for them.

Also Trump is not something that just happened. The US is an empire in decline and Trump is a symptom of that. The conditions of decline are maintained by the Republicans and Democrats and voting either won't be enough to turn things around.

Its been time to fundamentally reform the political system at the very least since 2016.

Yea, it was happening, not very fast but RCV or other FPTP alternatives were spreading. Now it's probably going to take a back seat now that Trump and Co has returned to power. Yet another consequence of the short sighted bLuEmAGa folk

I see democrats are already doing their best to blame everyone but themselves. Can’t wait to see who you run against him for his third term. I’m sure whoever they are, they’ll be a carbon copy of Obama, like the last three elections you ran against Trump.

You guys just really fucking love losing.

Translation: "I did everything I could to usher the fat orange fascist into power, but the DEMOCRATS are the ones to blame!!!"

You think Clinton, Biden and Harris are carbon copies of Obama?

You’re right, Obama could articulate a sentence.

and this is just week 1 of episode 2. it's gonna get a lot worse and they won't waste any time. they have to shovel all the shit they have planned before midterms while they still have congress.

if congress doesn't flip and flip hard--like impeachment-ready and veto-proof hard, it's 'game over'. instead of a few decades to fix episode 1, it will take generations, if it is even possible to recover completely at all.
