It's not enough to just elect Democrats. Ok technically Democrats would have 67 votes in the Senate if they flipped every single Republican seat, which would be just enough to convict. But that's not happening.
Instead, there needs to be a movement by anti Trump forces from across the spectrum to primary Republicans and replace them with anti Trump candidates. That effort needs to start now.
Tfw electing Democrats is “not happening” but flipping a cult against it’s demented, corrupt, rapist leader makes way more sense.
Can’t wait for it to be more corporate trash that pushes people into Republican arms!
Articles of impeachment were just in front of the house
DEMOCRATS voted them down.
What the fuck is the point of voting?
It depends on if you really want to know.
TL;DR: because voting is a right and a duty
Gonna have to vote out the shit Democrats and vote in progressives
Vote blue no matter who is out-- primary goddamned everybody is in
Yep - red party is actively hostile. Blue party is cowardly or outright wearing red undershirts under their blue suits.
We need primaries and general election wins.
Not only that, demand reinforced impartial safeguards against potential electoral rigging.
The wolf must not guard the hen house, and there's already a lot of weird stuff regarding the last election from said wolf.
its hilarious that people still think "going through the proper channels" is going to work. you're playing a game with someone who has cheats activated. playing by the rules aint gonna work if the guy you're playing against rewrites the rules whenever he feels like.
Sure, hopeless. It’s understandable. But we got in a few times and we can do it again if we unite. A clear platform, a slate of dedicated candidates and some breakthrough messaging. It CAN be done.
The bad news is we actually have to do it. The corporate news isn’t going to help until it makes them money.
Why wait? The amount of people and goodwill to do this would have the same effect if the same people started striking today.
Strike. Today.
Remember these cowards names when it’s time for them to beg for our votes.
