They have no path to win midterms, and they will run first. Funny thing is that they literally have nowhere to run. 🤣

    I have zero faith in the American public to do the right thing. We can blame Trump and the leaders all we want but I don’t know a single person who voted for Trump 2.0 and regrets it even though I live in an 80+% Trump district that is getting completely fucked by tariffs. As a country we are just too fucking stupid to get out of this shit.

      Anti-democracy bots are already hard at work all over the internet, doing the usual “there is no difference between the parties and only stupid people engage in democracy” spiel.

      I’m sorry, but Doomerism has to die.

      The only call-to-action I get from this kind of comment inspires is “give up & go home evryone; your fate is to suffer”

      My intention with my own comment is to ask people to please keep the defeatist comments to yourself.
      If you aren’t saying anything informative or supportive in Public discourse, what are you actually putting into the Public’s mind?

        I was hopefully until the DNC decided to run Janet Mills against Susan Collins. They gave her early support and the people of Maine no other option. IMHO the democrats are throwing the election early, so not sure what’s going on in your contested district, but I’d be big money on Susan Collins win here.

          The DNC is truely doing the bare minimum to keep up the imagine. Its not a both sides are the same, but a lot of the both sides like money and we now all know most people are fucking selfish and stupid(at least in the united states).

          There’s a primary going on with multiple candidates and she’s currently losing in polling.

            2 candidates that I know of. The DNC supports one and is campaigning against the other? Is there a third candidate I am unaware of and can you source the polling you are referencing?
