I didn't choose hitler 2.0, no. I find this complacency you have revolting.

The correct time to do something about Trump was 4 years ago after January 6th. He should be in prison on sedition.

The correct time to smile as you hand the keys over is never. And yet, that's what the democrats are doing.

No acknowledgment of their colossal failure,
no acknowledgment of their present unelectibility,
no acknowledgment of how hard things are about to be for people,
no leadership about what to do now that our government is owned by X.com,
no resistance.

I'm not asking for a second January 6th: do the democrats even care?

Presidents are supposed to be professionals and should act like it

I'll try to remember this as the corpses of Trump's administration pile up.

If you honestly think that. You should consider moving to another country.

Or revolt or something.

What are you asking for then? Should they just frown or make angry comments? Why, what's the point?

Sounds like you are just asking for a therapist.

Absolutely. It will quite the sight to behold, lol.

What are you asking for then?

Literally anything to rebuild public faith.

If you haven't seen it, this was Bernie Sander's response to Trump's victory given while Kamala Harris, our last hope, was on vacation.

The DNC is so beaurocratic, toothless, and boring that they lost to someone who holds the bible upside down.

And why? Because they don't believe in anything. They're soulless husks that amber about doing whatever their corporate donors tell them will sell to their demographics right now.

What should they do? I'd love to hear one of them present a single fucking idea. Even a bad one.

Blue states, round the national guard, project yourself as a safe haven for the would-be deported. Blue in the senate, obstruct and delay as much as possible. Pull the fire alarm, I don't know. The system has crumbled, act like it.


Anyway, I've been soapboxing for long enough. You have a good day, man.

If Lemmy had 'gold' like Reddit, man, I'd buy two for you.
