    When by a miracle the upcoming 2026 voting fraud and roadblocks will be undone, and 2028’s election is fair and brings a FULL landslide democratic win.

    Then the Democrats must go full in on a blaze of justice and condemn everyone in the current administration, including local government, think-tanks and anyone who enriched themselves unfairly, as conspirators in an evil coup to convict them with the highest penalties.

    If they do not … the country will be lost in a prolonged smouldering fire of fascism.

    A “national pardon” to keep the balance is not a proper solution to this.

    But, read what I started with and you’ll see there are enormous hurdles to overcome, I am not convinced the current administration will let any of it happen.

    The king in all but name is already here, and 2028 will likely have seen the crowning ceremony.

      This would literally be a miracle.

      I expect we go straight to “only look forward, not backwards.” Let’s face it, there are a lot of establishment dems in those Epstein files too whom they’d rather not prosecute.

      Both parties need to be discarded if regular Americans are to have any hope. Get rid of the donor-run uniparty, banish first past the post, disband the electoral college, and restore the fairness doctrine for news media broadcast license eligibility, and maybe

        If there’s a Ranked Choice initiative/group in your area please volunteer. This will give us the most bang for your time to get away from this duopoly. I say if because some states have banned RCV. That’s how scared they are.

      The other side of the Confederates are getting more extreme? I see him claiming the opposition to Pedonald are “radical” (lol), I don’t even know what that means? Maybe that some Democrats came back to a more central position from being basically moderate Republicans?

          More center after shifting to the right, year after year, for a few decades?

          It’d be nice to have a party that represented where most Americans poll on key issues.

          The Overton window has shifted so far that any candidate you’re thinking of is on the right, so what were you saying again.

    Reminds me of the October revolution a bit, Lenin screaming to seize power now (that the provisional government is weak)

    The core message seems to be: since Trump is doing everything by executive order, the next time a Democrat holds the office of the presidency, ALL of it will be undone. And some of it, in his view, will be declared illegal in the first place. Like, I don’t know, the DOGE takeover early in the year. Or the imprisonment of citizens and legal immigrants because racism.

    Biden didn’t do any of it. He didn’t even push for the Trump tax cuts from 2017 to be undone, which was insane. I sense that’s part of the reason Harris lost in 2024, and it seems that the Democrats of 2025 are starting to smell the wind of change. Because the country and the voters forced them to.

    I was horrified in 2022 when both Biden and Yellen went on the record stating they believed the high inflation was just temporary and not a larger concern. This time around it’s Trump telling America prices are down and the economy is booming.

    If you have to change the way the country works so you don’t go to prison, you should already be there.

    Alternate headline: Bannon tells GOP they’ve been doing just an absolute fuckton of crimes.
