If they had any balls at all, they would have Joe Manchin make this speech.
"hey, you know how this sclerotic broken system doesn't deliver anything for you? it must be saved!"
The elections just keep getting more and more important! This is importance inflation.
It's like when superhero movies keep upping the ante with increasingly catastrophic stakes. All US politics is theatrics.
The dems need to take a page from Goku’s playbook and dye their hair a new color every election cycle.
Hey! You don't want to see what happens if COVID is allowed to continue running rampant without any plan to stop it, we allow conservatives to obstruct any pro-worker legislation that gets proposed, we continue funding racist police, evil corporations get away without paying taxes and get to influence governmental policy and.... Oh that's all happening even though "democracy" won last election? Fuck. Well I'm out of ideas.
They should be forced to rank previous elections by order of importance if they insist on using that term.
I'm kind of jealous that other countries only talk about their elections maybe like 2 weeks before they happen
we're over here talking about 10 months from now
the midterms are effectively a response to the Presidential party and with very few exceptions the opposition party tends to gain power
it's flip flopping seats to give the impression things are happening
We get to watch our government progressively ratchet to the right every midterm. Republicans ransack social programs, deregulate, try to take away abortions, dismantle healthcare, and lower taxes. Then Dems get in and don't do anything to fix the mess because some kayfabe, "we can't do anything too radical, or we might lose our position!" Then Republicans take back over. Rinse and repeat.
There is nothing like seeing this kind of shit and having, for the sixteen-thousandth time in my life, the rasping voice in the back of my head assuring me that I'm already dead and in a quiet corner of hell. I can hear the roar of the inferno with my unburnt ears and it torments me.
My ascension removes me from the disc in the loop. I'm near final stage. Some mornings I can see the infernal plane
It takes the Biden from the basket, it puts the Biden on the skin, or else it gets the Trump again.
SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT
How many more of these stinking, double-downer sideshows will we have to go through before we can get ourselves straight enough to put together some kind of national election that will give me and the at least 20 million people I tend to agree with a chance to vote FOR something, instead of always being faced with that old familiar choice between the lesser of two evils? I understand, along with a lot of other people, that the big thing, this year, is Beating Nixon. But that was also the big thing, as I recall, twelve years ago in 1960—and as far as I can tell, we’ve gone from bad to worse to rotten since then, and the outlook is for more of the same. -HST
You ever think liberals ever stop and think about why the United States is always one day away from a fascist takeover? Like, that seems like a bad system if you get to that point.
How did the Onion get that twitter handle? I almost fell for that!
