@blitzballrusher4993 Fairly true, but practically excusing the repukelikkkunts isn't okay either. They're passing SO MANY laws to ensure the elections are always rigged in their favour. That isn't new either. They've had the odds heavily stacked in their favour for extremely long, and they never win by popular vote - aka actually democratically. If the system wasn't entirely rigged in their favour, they wouldn't keep or gain any power. Repukelikkkunts ARE the MINORITY big time.
Now with that being said, I do really wish the democratic party was a lot stronger and willing to fight for what they campaign on, and what their voters and majority of the population wants. I also really, really wish they wouldn't self sabotage all the time by doing everything in their power to block and discredit progressives. They pretend to be in favour for progressive policies because they KNOW that's what actually is most popular among the incredible vast majority of voters, but completely backpeddals when push comes to show. You can thank corruption for that, as well as corporate media giving them lip service - just like the literal entirety of the repukelikkkunts are corrupt. The entirety of the repukelikkkunt party is heavily corrupt and are working for themselves, their greed, lust for power, and their big corporate donors. Same goes for MOST, but not all of the democratic party - except for PROGRESSIVES. Who are THE ONLY ONES fighting FOR THE PEOPLE, and against corporate interests. These corrupt mofo's don't want any of that - they'll kill democracy if they must to stay in absolute power and be wealthier than most people can't even fathom, no matter the costs to the people or the planet. It's pure, selfish greed.
Now, the repukelikkkunts ARE WORSE. They're FAR, FAR WORSE due to their dangerous, racist, bigoted, sexist, xenophobic, pro-war and nationalist views determining their policies IN ADDITION to the blatant corruption controlling their ENTIRE PARTY.
At least there's a growing movement of progressives taking more and more space in the democratic party, who are able to flex that muscle more and more instead of constantly being forced by the corporates from both within the democratic party, the media AND the opposition to bend the knee. At least democrats aren't ACTIVELY trying to kill democracy - they could surely do HELLA LOT MORE to STRENGTHEN democracy than they are, but they're at least not ACTIVELY legislating democracy's death. Oh and also of course, same can be said about reproductive rights.
The repukelikkkunts are becoming more and more blatant and autocratic by the day, and dangerously so - obiviously. Letting repukelikkkunts win is NOT an option. They're truly anti-democracy, and shamelessly so. They're not even trying to hide it anymore, as they've done FOR YEARS.
