mmmm Pretty sure the fucking plan is to get elected? And then, outnumber republiQans in the House and Senate where applicable?
In the absence of literally anything other than the economic boycotts floating on social media as a pipe dream, it seems to be not only achievable but also sound.
It requires leftists to support Democratic candidates though. OR to support a candidate that Democrats can vote for. Either is fine. But it has to be one or the other.
Given the garment-rending "oohhh democracy is so corrupt" "both sides bad bro" "your vote doesn't matter" whinging our randomly appointed leftist representatives can not quit with, it seems like we're going to need the whole two years to get anything together.
"Get elected" lol solid plan bro, let's run the 2016/2024 play again. Gl.
Again - what's the alternative. Seriously. Take your time.
Is it amassing at the state house with armor and placards? Possibly a sit-in? Are you suggesting we take over a university administration building? Reading Anarchist's Cookbook and making some black powder bombs and smoking banana peels? JFC. GI.
WHAT. What do you got.
Nothing. For the last year, anytime I ask this question, that's the ultimate answer. You got a nose full of attitude. Great. That's great, kids. You'll go far with that. It's a wonder you haven't made any headway at all in any aspect of governmental power already.
Every time Republicans have held the absolute minority in government, Dems were hamstrung and couldn't pass any progressive legislation.
Somehow the reverse isn't true.
Therefore Dems don't dislike what trump is doing. What can be done when the uniparty reveals itself as it has, with Dems rubber-stamping anything Trump does?
Well we're on .world. so that can't be discussed per instance rules.
