Citizens not comprehending the fragility of democracy is one of the main reasons democracies fail, especially in countries that suffer from the myth of "exceptionalism" (it can't happen here).

[radwulfeboraci]

Trump is the blunt instrument of the American Taliban. This is an attempted coup by a white, right, religious fundamentalists.

[robertwysocki]

Hopefully, the fact that the other folks at the Pentagon call this guy "Yesper" is an indication that they don't have a great deal of respect for him.

[desertportal]

We need to be prepared to answer the backlash cleanly, not nicely, but cleanly and directly and without compromise. Trump wants to make history then so be it.

[allenyoroichi]

Every republican president has given a recession but this takes the cake 🤕

When will Americans learn...

[Tommyfrommyspace]

It cracks me up that Trump thinks people don't think he's an old guy-- yeah, dude... the goofy, phony bouffant combover, the fake teeth, tweeter meltdowns, the giant shoulder pads, the corset, the spray tan, the Valley Girl lingo... definitely working.

[Dawn-dxsr]

Your vote is your voice. Vote loudly!!

[SQUID_Road_Glide]

[villainouschrisk]

i don't care where you live. if you live in the reddest state in the country. i live in Louisiana. VOTE. the margin of his repudiation should be so absolute, no court in the land would consider a motion contesting the result.

[sallysunshine]

Michigan supports Elissa Slotkin, thank you for sticking up for our state, despite the croonies that have fought you.Elissa Slotkin for Michigan

[paigemartin]

She represents my district she's pretty cool!

[James_Knott]

Should Trump refuse to go, he should be given the bum's rush!

Senator: "Will you overturn healthcare?"
Barrett: " I cannot say right now."
Senator: "Should Presidents transfer power peacefully?"
Barrett: "I'll have to answer that after the elections."
Senator: "Is Row v Wade settled Law?"
Barrett: "Well there is precedent...but not really."
Senator: "Would you recuse yourself in a case about the elections?"
Barrett: "If there is a legal reason...probably not."
America: "Is it time for US Second Civil War?"
Barrett: "Courts don't have the authority to enforce its own rulings."

[lavelleklobes]

Our American dream is lost & cant believe he has supporters! He is tearing us apart ! Please vote him OUT !!!

[josegilbert]

A transition of power is not what it looking like, it's more like a continuation of it. If you have any doubt you haven't been watching the rallies.

[carmelinacappetta]

Will the Pretorian Guard act in January?

[zachcloutier]

I miss Barack Obama as president so much. He's been such an inspiration since I was 12 years old in middle school. I miss his reasonable, thoughtful and calming leadership!!! Biden-Harris 2020!!!
