If you guys get another left leaning president be better be a socialist dictator. If this is the game now, play it. Next guy better abolish ice

That not what they are there for...

Wish this meme came with a game plan for an actual, realistic way to abolish the 2-party system, instead of just serving to drive more people away from voting blue, which is how we have a fascist dictator for president and a newly minted Gestapo.

Pssst. No 3rd party has even come close to doing the work necessary to start becoming viable for a presidential run.

This is the same as saying dems are really conservatives. It's just as dumb.

Replace conservatives with The Right and liberals with The Conservatives

Democratic Party is not really left if compared at a global scale

It still doesn't solve the new MAGA party. The republican party is dead. 50 million Americans are MAGA. I don't see how they're getting out of this without going through hell. In other words open warfare.

We've gone too far down this path to avoid violence to correct course.

Only shot would be a general strike. But even in a functional society there probably wouldn't be enough solidarity for that to happen.

So yeah, expect death in America's future.

Brought to you by conservatives and losers who didn't vote or voted 3rd party for funsies.

This is a direct continuation of the Republican party project of the last several decades.

There's no left in the US, they think Sanders is a comunist when he'd be center-left elsewhere.
