before that we also need to make sure superpac backed trash don’t get past the primaries.

trump got elected twice because dnc has become infested by shills like pelosi and schumer while sabotaging progressives like bernie and aoc.

pelosi will happily support ice and any anti-working class initiative as long she gets her cut. schumer is an israeli agent who would support brining back slavery if it allows idf to murder more children.

Can’t wait for it to be more corporate trash that pushes people into Republican arms!

Hahahahahahaha

Not even if the Dems had the vote. I am positive someone would block it for civility reasons.

The dems can not get out of their own way. See Zohran win in NYC.

See Zohran win in NYC.

Why? The headlines on lemmy made me think that he is the good candidate.

So vote to expand the progressive side of the dem party

You mean to say our votes can override an organization that argued in court that since its a private service they could just ignore the vote of the people and pick who they wanted?

The same organization that always manages to organize and attack leftist like Zohran and Bernie but can't find any footing against Trump?

Yep. That will work. Just gotta vote harder.

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Correct, so show up. We need to vote, and we need to protest.

[–] dastanktal@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I really really don't think that will change anything. People been trying to change the democrats for the better part of ten years.

Name one landmark foundational thing they have done in the last ten years thats really benefited the majority of Americans.

There isn't one that isn't a major concession that undercuts the original proposal.

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 5 points 2 hours ago

You're right and part of that is people like you not showing up. None voting has had the most votes in all those elections.

[–] WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 hours ago

The first step is to crucify any Democrat that isn't willing to actually fight.

[–] razzazzika@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 hours ago

Can't Trump just issue an executive order saying there's no more elections, or that Democrats are a terrorist organization and just like, not let any democrats win at all? Judges can't stop his executive orders anymore... he could just abolish congress at a whim.

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 28 points 6 hours ago

I am utterly convinced that it won't matter, but damnit we still have to fucking try.

[–] rockettaco37@lemmy.world 16 points 5 hours ago (23 children)

It's time to take our fuckin country back

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago) (1 children)

The seats that need to be taken I don't think are sided towards the Democrats getting enough. States like Alabama have had a Democrat Senator in recent years but for it to flip from a Republican back to a Democrat seems tough with how divided and how far right some states have slid. (Nearly 65% voted for Trump there in 2024).

Kyle Sweetster may be their best shot of a democrat winning , but it's a long ways away and who knows what could change. https://www.kyleforalabama.com/

I swear it's always the fucking South dragging the rest of us down...

Turn-out for primaries is minuscule. If you’re in a deep red state that has fully open primaries, you can request a republican primary ballot. I guarantee if you fully look into every primary candidate there will be a reasonable person who is at least open to impeaching or otherwise opposing Trump.

If it’s a partially-open primary state you will have to switch to independent to vote strategically in primaries.

If you’re in a deep-red state with closed primaries, it’s worth considering switching affiliations just so you can have some say in who represents you.

I know it’s like sifting through shit to find an edible kernel of corn, but it’s what has to be done to stop this in deep-red states.

I honestly quite afraid they are gonna rig the fuck outta the mid-terms somehow. I realize I have little to no evidence to support that, but doesn't mean it couldn't still happen under this regime.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

You’re not the only one.

2024 seemed to be rigged at the top only. That's how we ended up with so many people voting a straight Democratic ticket, except for HitlerPig at the top, which Dems have been trying to convince us is perfectly normal, which it isn't.

Its one thing to rig the vote in one race in seven swing states, it's another to rig 435 Congressional races around the country. That would be nearly impossible. It would take multiple operatives in every district, and at some point, somebody would squeal.

The Senate races pose other challenges, although they only really have to identify a handful of close races, and make sure those fall to MAGA.

The MAGA Nazis can't afford to let either chamber flip, or the Democrats will have control of investigative committees with subpoena and arrest powers. If that starts, it will end with prison terms for many.

So I'm convinced that they will "suspend" elections using Martial Law, or the Insurrection Act, or some other legal atrocity.

What. The dems saying that’s normal? Where!

They’re stupid enough to do it, but I doubt they’ll get all the buy in they’d need.

Ah yes, impeach the already twice impeached, 34 time convicted felon
