Trump, who endorsed Randy Fine, carried FL district 6 by >30 points in the 2024 election but Fine beat @joshweil.bsky.social by 14 points. This result signals trouble for the GOP in swing districts across the nation. The fascist/DOGE/MAGA agenda is deeply unpopular. www.nytimes.com/interactive/... - ThreadSky

This is another indication that party/tribal/team politics must be abolished in favor of voting for the best person & term limits. George Washington was against the 2-party system & predicted the problems we now face. Smart man. Changing now could save democracy, get things done to heal the world

hopeful bullshit at its best. That we are doing better is just blowing smoke up our wallets to get more donations. We Lost plain and simple. We need to fill the streets with loyal Americans that have a purpose of takin back the America we had before Trump. And Deport his sick old ass to Russia

enuffisenuff.bsky.social•10 days ago

But still hard to grasp….we want to take your Social Security, raise all your grocery prices, disappear people, scare away the farm workers, end academia and research…Florida ok. Sounds great!

They are still in the CULT COMA!

Just what Congress needs, another MTG...

Bad news: MAGAts have the memory of a dead goldfish. Wiggle a dark skinned man in his twenties in front of them and they will be trampling over their own children to get to the polls.

johnmullinax.bsky.social•9 days ago

And yet, not unpopular enough.

judgebaker.bsky.social•10 days ago

luckily, she is crushing it in Wisconsin

eddie0028.bsky.social•9 days ago

Looks like floriduh is Fine with losing #SocialSecurity #Medicare and doing away with #Childlaborlaws.

kimmcauliffe.bsky.social•10 days ago

How, a win is a win.

maswartz.bsky.social•10 days ago

Thank you! People want us to wade in pig shit to find a penny of good news!

ghostofcleopatra.bsky.social•10 days ago

They are passing a law allowing children to work in dangerous conditions bc Gov Defascist kicked out all the immigrants. Its a felony for a woman to get an abortion b4 she knows shes pregnant. LGBTQ children have been vilified & we are #1 in book bans. Hard to find victory in defeat here these days

chi-town-aquaman.bsky.social•10 days ago

Hang in, the pendulum will swing back hard and may not be long for that

jengaudio.bsky.social•9 days ago

Choose your battles, keep your head up, and take care of yourself. We need you strong and healthy if we’re going to keep fighting

beej79.bsky.social•10 days ago

Democrats always pick the wrong candidates in FL. Converted Muslim school teacher from Orlando in a good ole boy district never had a chance. Dems are the worst sales people.

chi-town-aquaman.bsky.social•10 days ago

Yep

mike814.bsky.social•10 days ago

This should also send a message to all the house gop that want a chance at winning in 2026 to reject trumps soft coup.

makani-noho.bsky.social•10 days ago

And Crawford just won in WI.

rocksnosalt.bsky.social•10 days ago

I live in Fl 6th...Everyone worked so hard to elect Josh Weil. So upset tonight, but we will not back down. Re-grouping tomorrow for our next fight! #Resist

squireafd.bsky.social•10 days ago

That's how to fight. ✊

taussie.bsky.social•9 days ago

Thank you for all you did!!

middlemolly.bsky.social•9 days ago

Yep, trump and his little friend mushie are VERY unpopular.. and getting more unpopular every day. Will anyone dare to tell the orange cheeto god though?

blueancestor.bsky.social•10 days ago

Were the votes correctly counted. Don't trust T's group.

mybits.bsky.social•10 days ago

FloriDUH Zis ripe for Dems to take over in '26!!!

cairanne.bsky.social•9 days ago

How tf are Republican still winning seats?

Are the people of florida THAT stupid?

buildcommunity.bsky.social•10 days ago

Gay and Josh, please don't concede. Please demand recounts. Hand counted. No tabulators, computers,wifi, or starlink. Just paper only, by hand.

bandit9914.bsky.social•10 days ago

Florida still sucks. It can't sink into the ocean fast enough for me.

wazzy1949.bsky.social•9 days ago

Me too and I live there!

ghostofcleopatra.bsky.social•10 days ago

The 4.7 million of us voted for Harris in FL would beg to differ. It's the most beautiful place I've ever lived and just because (in the dozen or so years I've been here) it's become infected by Magats I will not surrender our beautiful natural springs, beaches and sunsets to these MFers!

jengaudio.bsky.social•9 days ago

More power to you

gthom18.bsky.social•10 days ago

Florida vote counting and results have been suspect since 2016. Something very fucked with voters and vote counting in FL.

cloudypatriot.bsky.social•9 days ago

Look at Brown County in Wisconsin in the Crawford/Schimel race. This includes Green Bay, where Musk was passing out million dollar bills to Republicans. Every county in Wisconsin with a noticable blue uptick. Every single one.

ariusrevenge.bsky.social•9 days ago

Does it? Let’s no get exited by cracking a small piece in a gerrymander. Let’s get excited about passing state amendments to end gerrymandering. The votes in the red districts of Florida a bigots in conspiracy by design of neighborhood zoning too.

meinthe603.bsky.social•9 days ago

Apparently, the DOGE/MAGA agenda isn't unpopular enough. Boggles the mind, doesn't it?

maswartz.bsky.social•10 days ago

No, we are not doing this anymore. We lost. Period. No victory here.

enuffisenuff.bsky.social•10 days ago

Exactly. Losing by less is not winning.

mybits.bsky.social•10 days ago

True, but we need to be a bit patience. Let the Medicaid cuts kick in and we'll see in '26!

mybits.bsky.social•10 days ago

Let the Medicaid cuts kick in, the FloriDUHnce will be ready to vote DEM in '26!

alschulman.bsky.social•9 days ago

Weil was hitting the entire country up for money to "flip the House". Sorry to anyone who fell for it and put their money into a race which he lost by 14 points on a "good day" 🙄

anhos.bsky.social•10 days ago

Not much trouble considering what shit Trump and the republicans are and what they are doing.Was all this voting in person?The godamn machines are rigged.

barronwtramp.bsky.social•9 days ago

I would like this to be true but it seems unrealistically optimistic.
These were massive efforts to move the needle just a smidge in FL.
But, here's hoping
