The most important line in the whole post is: "What we are fighting is fascism," and the truth is, any Democrat is way better than any of the current Republicans, especially if they are Trump-supported.

That is why we must unite with the agenda of defeating enough Republicans that we take back the House AND the Senate, as this is the only path to progress and curtailing Trump and his henchmen (and women) from destroying 250 years of democracy.

What I have found in my encounters with Trump supporters, whom I know personally and those on political sites, is that many Republicans/conservatives appear to equate "democracy" with Democrats, the party they hate.

Many even split hairs and argue that we are NOT a Democracy; we're a Republic! Actually, we're both, as in a "Constitutional Democratic Republic". Non-Trump supporting Independents, like myself, are treated with the same level of disdain for pointing this out.

I also find that to be true. What really pisses me off the most is when you state a verified fact, and they still call you a liar or something to that effect.

Re the work being done on the front of the White house, haven't heard a single news person investigate and comment. Fortify it as mention in your tutorial, finish the ballroom and stock it with supplies, there might jut be a president who doesn't want to leave. Then the world can really have a laugh.

I happen to agree with Hakeem Jeffries's response. The Democrats should distance themselves from that DSA agenda because you just know the GOP and FOX news are going to make it sound like that is the official Democrat agenda. Sure there may be an overlap, but they are only going to emphasize the crazy parts like abolishing the Senate and prisons.

Like I have said before…I wish it wasn’t his ear that took the shot!

Could you explain this comment. Not criticizing just do not understand it. Thanks.

So let him stay! Lock him in the bunker & throw away the key. He can be the Count of Monte Crisco.

One way to combat this degree of ignorance of our government would be to demand that schools follow a standardized syllabus of study for a Social Studies class and make passing that a requirement for graduating high school besides passing English. Make it a syllabus developed by educators and lawmakers from both parties of congress so that there is no room for interpretation and unchecked manipulation of the facts, and so that one party cannot accuse the other of partisan politics.

When they then register to vote, like when getting a drivers license, have them take a test first.

Donnie just wants to be sure he's safe to tell Pete who to kill from his underground Presidential Nursing Home bed. His used diapers can be sold upstairs at the front gate with all MAGA sales rallies outside.

You can bet your Bitcoins; Donnie's Religious team will be praying for the rest of us ouside.

Some appointed strategist has forgotten that Russia and China have Bunker Buster bombs too and the superior Hypersonic Delivery Aircraft.

What a stink this is going to make!
