His staffers have committed fraud & have also apparently committed forgery.
They need to be indicted in 2029.
We will have to do it. Not them. By force and probobly indite some if them to.
The Democrats have no appetite to indict the GOP
Democrats have no power to investigate, let alone indict, the GOP.
They're too busy figuring out how to make Marxism work while the GOP shields pedophiles.
Social Democrats do. It's part of their plank.
It's tough to try to indict the GOP when the majority of american voters decided they don't care and voted the ringleader back into the White House...
Its gotta be easy to run against the worst people possible. The ads write themselves. If you want to win of course.
Maybe thats why democrats didnt want to prosecute Trump. Gotta get one more election in with the big bad guy. Plus you can genocide whoever you want and break union strikes. What are they gonna do, let trump win? I wonder who will be the bad cop after Trump croaks.
It points to the fact that if you want things to change, the Dems are not going to help you. I'm sorry if the truth causes you to doom-out and not be able to fight. You should work on that. Pretending in a lie so your feelings don't hurt, so you can fight for an "option" that will not save you, is far more harmful.
Saying "the Democrats have no desire to change things or save us" is not the same as saying "there is no hope".
I mean this from the bottom of my heart. Things are very very bad. If your mental state has deteriorated to the point where you feel that the truth is "doomerism" and that you need to believe in false hope just to mentally survive, you need to genuinely tend to your mental health. Fussing at your triggers online is not helping. In fact if you're like most people, the online time is probably only hurting.
The Democrats are not going to save you. A future where you matter can be forged, just not through them. I hope you can find some real future to hold onto🧡
I do discuss viable options. I didn't in this post. It is not viable to do so in every interaction. To take your very valid frustration with the status quo out on me, someone who sees and fights, is far more harmful than my glib reminder that the Democrats will not fix the way things are, only perpetuate them.
You seem to be very thirsty for real action. You can't get that here, my friend.
If you still want to hang out here, and you need viable suggestions to be mentioned for your own mental health, I would suggest that you add them any time you see a comment that you feel is "dooming". If you want the work, do the work. Hoping that people leaving 3 second comments do it, is a losing strategy. Getting angry at allies, taking your very valid frustration at your current situation out on them, hurts your cause far far more than a comment like my original one could.
Wow, you're toxic.
Way to embody my precise point. Won't be seeing any further replies though.
edit: what kind of a fucking idiot goes on record saying toxic online discourse isn't the problem, it's individuals upset about said toxicity? the same kind that fakes empathy (very poorly) I guess.
Oof, rather than recognize the issue, you escalated your accusations to "the problem" being with the entire platform. Then when you got pushback from yet another user, you deleted your comment that blames literally everyone else but yourself.
I don't know how much more obvious the problem can get. If you can't see this, you ain't seeing it today. I hope you can break through to a place of genuine action and truth. Good luck.
I feel like their point was that if being told that democrats wont save us sends you into a doomerism spiral of misery and despair, that's maybe something you should work on yourself. And a more sober reading of our current situation is not that one should lose all hope, but that they should find it outside the democratic party.
I don't find any less validity in saying "That's a bad idea" vs "This thing should happen" if both have no offered substance.
That's adorable.
Democrats coukd win every seat in every election and they won't do jack shit against any of these criminals.
"TiMe tO mOvE oN aNd rEuNiTe tHe CoUnTrY" or some bull shit.
