God, I hope so. However, we have to push back against every attempt to change voter laws. Demand elections and don’t get ourselves gaslit into believing anything needs to be suspended.
It was 90% in their last election, and the party that won this time is also conservative, combined would equal about 50% with just the two parties. Perspectives and reference points are important.
we can win big if we if we promise FDR style change! tax the rich, reverse GOP tax breaks, guard the environment, nationalize big oil... go full Morena Party!
Yes and the turnout was the highest since 89! Now "bete ich" that the 2nd highest will be kept out of and coalition! And that Trumpelstiltzchen stops telling his idiotic followers that WE have won in Germany. Zum Teufel mit ihm!
Our President is a RUSSIAN ASSET.
Russian State TV Says It's No 'Coincidence' Trump Is Echoing Putin's Talking Points
This week, Russian media said Trump's shifting stance toward Ukraine is in "total alignment" with the Kremlin.
Better question... Is it already too late? No one is stopping what Musk is doing internally. Trump now has loyalists heading every law enforcement agency AND the military. Counting on supposed midterms in 22 months to save democracy seems extraordinarily optimistic. Frankly, it's now or never.
We could but we need to get some of these bad laws in swing states eradicated - like the law that lets "vigilantes" challenge votes for flimsy reasons!! We have to even the playing field!

The two-parties gig is a dud.
Trumpism is a type of Jim jones cult motif
or as called in depth psychology,
a mass-psychosis or psychic epidemic.
