The message is clear. Republicans want to raise the retirement age to 69, outlaw abortion on a national level. Vote Republican at your own peril.

The party of taking things away strikes again!

Let me add a side dish of - I'm increasingly convinced they want a system designed such that we can all work to increase the wealth of the 1% right up to the moment we drop dead in our cubicles.

Meanwhile, back in reality, the GOP recently lost two more special elections in places they normally wouldn't & nationwide the Democrats are still beating polling by 9+ points at the ballot box post Roe V. Wade fuckery by SCotUS. Also, the GOP's bank accounts are literally being looted by the Trumps which will devastate down-ballot politicians.

I'm assuming they are using AI or a something similar for targeting polling to get the "answers" they want,

Polling hasn't been anywhere near accurate since 2016, but the Media needs its horse race. Make sure you vote & make sure 3 other people vote & we've got this.

EDIT: the silly little fascist symp @syllogi has been blocked by everyone, so all they can do is sad little downvotes. How pathetic you are, fash.

Can we please stop with the whole "if the Republicans make the country terrible enough, they will start losing!"

No. That's a terrible strategy. It worked once, with the repeal of abortion protections, and even then it didn't work super well. And the tradeoff was not worth it. Women are dying.

Voters, especially Republican voters, are so stupid and brainwashed that they will believe the GOP when the GOP tells them that it's actually Democrats (and immigrants etc etc) who have made their lives worse.

"Donald Trump would be on track to win a historic landslide in November — if so many US voters didn’t find him personally repugnant."

That if is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

Too long since I've said this:

Fuck you, Republicans!

40 percent of voters said that Trump’s policies had helped them personally, while just 18 percent said the same of Biden.

One significant change I've noticed from Biden's policies in my daily life is the capping of overdraft fees. Previously, having a negative balance was a financial emergency as I had to borrow money from friends to avoid hefty $30 fees while waiting for my income check to clear.

I don't think GOP voters really care about policy at this point. They have voted against their own interests all the time. I've seen it 1st hand working at the SNAP office in my state. People voting/worshiping guys like DeSantis while he makes it harder for them to get food or help.

Bull puckey, dumps would in no way definable be "on track to win a historic landslide".

He didn't win by a landslide in 2016, he lost in 2020, and he's in a far weaker position today than in either of those elections.

He's demonstrably the actual biggest loser in history, and he only gets more loser-y folks... If any of you are starting to have your memories fade, here's a quick refresher to read this morning and then copy and send to your aunt karen in Missouri.

And....

• 91 indictments.

It literally doesn't matter, unless people go out and vote. Seriously, if you don't vote, you deserve 4 more years of that loser.

Republican voters subconsciously want the other side to suffer more than improving their situation, they are just not self-aware enough to realise it.

Can someone explain to me what would stop dems from infinitely fillibustering any of the Republicans bullshit laws if they got control, similar to how the Republicans have?
